Boy it’s going as bad as we all figured it would with hiring JD

It’s why I haven’t even bothered to check in. I used to go to **** near every home series growing up, all three games. Would even try to sneak 4-5 innings before or after a game of my own if my dad and I had the time.

No one to blame but the administration, and the touts on here that applaud, believe and endorse in this disaster.

Will be this way until a real coach is hired and we spend big money on the transfer portal like the SEC does, instead of bargain bin shopping. The sport has changed, and we’re not changing with it.

Who pulled strings for the baseball hire?

I mean I was told Drads hands were tied with baseball hire, so who made the hard JD push?

What does Drad do? He didnt hire Mario, didnt hire JD allegedly, also the sentiment was he was "guided" to make the Lucas hire.

I guess he hires Womans bball coach? Olympic sports?

His track record as AD is stacking up as all time University bad at this point.

Heard on another board Cora pushed for JD to get the job
 
They had better options than JD interested, they didn’t want to invest in it. You can say many vouched for JD or pushed for him, the bottom line is, they knew he was the cheap, low hanging fruit. With the money being invested in football and some of it in basketball, it's hard to complain. I hope when JD is let go, they spend. Otherwise, a real investment probably isn't coming until we leave the ACC. The sad part is, the baseball investment is much cheaper than the other 2 sports.

Well with the basketball hire, it tells me they aren't investing too heavily in it either.

It's all in on football

You could have gone just as cheap going into the lower levels and getting someone whose been pinching way over their talent… his buddies made this happen and Rad didn’t want to shake any boosters from continuing to give for a sport like baseball that isn’t a big money maker
