Cohen Is About To Reach Bury Status With Me.........
- Thread starter ExtremeDog
- Start date
Flukish. You could tell we just overachevied and had a little luck sneaking in as a 3seed and had Austin Peay pull an upset. The ballbounced our way so to speak. When you get down to the nuts and bolts of it we just don't have enough talent to compete week in and week out in the SEC
Lets fire the coach a year after he takes us to the Sweet 16 (almost Omaha) when he also faced an unnaturally high number of injuries to his starters.. Like I said if we completely **** the bed this season (missing the postseason) I will be ready to fire him with a similar performance in 2013
one would if they said something stupid like one of our key parts to our postseason run last year sucks.

not to mention that we did, in fact, beat Georgia Tech to win that regional.<div>
</div><div>If you want to *****, ***** about the coaching in the game today. Talking **** about last year just confirms to everyone who didn't know already that you're ignorant about baseball. </div>

I dont see it and havent seen it all year. We played a very week early schedule, everyone said that we will ride our pitching, we have one quality starter. Our hitting is just bad period. I dont see a regional any time soon.

#1 - Early season schedule was average, not weak by any means<div>
</div><div>#2 - We've played 2 of the elite teams in the country, plus a ranked team at their place. Not getting swept is a big step forward from recent years.</div><div>
</div><div>#3 - We accomplished #2 with a number of KEY injuries. We can only get better against worse competition with better players.</div><div>
</div><div>That said, if the absolute stupidity of today continues, all bets are off.</div><div>

We didn't have to face Austin Peay's ace. But we had to face USM's ace- a guy that had just been called "the best pitcher in USM history" per Rick Cleveland. And I would put Todd MacInnis up against GT's ace and darn sure would put him up against Austin Peay's ace.
Fortunately for us, Cohen had the brains to pitch Pollorena who shut them down and got us in position to face Austin Peay. I guess that was a fluke.
Had GT won, we would have pitched Routt against them.
They didn't, so we pitched Evan Mitchell- and saved Routt for the Championship. Either way, Routt would have pitched against GT or USM.
We managed our pitching staff awfully well during that fluke- and I think that's what won us that regional- how we handled our pitching staff.
If we had Polk coaching us, it would have been Routt in game one, MacInnis probably beats us, and then we have to go with Pollorena vs. GT.
