turn a disaster start into a #4 final ranking you'd think our fan base would have a little more patience as a program with a new coach.

And yet we fired that coach....and it was the correct move. Moorehead is lost. It doesn't take a football genius to see this.

The two sports are just very different in nature. Baseball got off to a terrible start but still had an opportunity to play for a championship just because of the layout of that sport. The goal at the beginning of the year never disappeared as long as we made sure we were in a Regional.

With football, we are basically eliminated from winning the West before we’ve even played a team from the West. Our NY6 bowl aspirations are shot, and now a team with big expectations now likely has a best case scenario of Nashville or Memphis, with Birmingham or no bowl at all easily in play.

Ugh...don't even mention baseball. I dread it about as bad as I dread the rest of football season. After Cohen giving us the blue balls over the coaching search, Lemonis just gives me a bad feeling. Something about him just screams, "I'm not gonna get **** done while I'm here."

Considering that we are nearing the halfway point of our season and moving backwards, I highly doubt that turnaround is on the horizon.

In SEC Western Division Football, there is no time for patience.

We also had a bunch of blue chip freshmen baseball players adjusting to the speed of the college game. This football team has only a handful of top recruits on the entire team.

I get where you're coming from, but we got a new coach in baseball. We got rid of the coach that drove the team into the ground. Also, as mentioned, baseball is forgiving. You have multiple chances to try to figure it out and get into the post season.
