EXTEND LEMONIS!

Lifetime contract!
We have improved our pitching department. That's the lifeblood of an SEC team.
The defense too. What was such a joke last year is now best in the SEC
He can coach. It's his recruiting and the talent he brought in that's concerning. Injuries didn't help. Some of those early games this year, especially mid-week games, were hard to watch. It looked like were no better than last year. But this team is good and is getting better. This is why Mississippi State baseball is great. We're not beating Bama and Georgia in football and rarely do we beat LSU. But when we're good at baseball we can beat anyone.
Next years roster is going to look awful unless Lemonis gets a lot of Portal talent.
I think all of you ‘fire Lemonis/we are garbage’ guys need to start you posts with…”I used to be a whiney little bi*th…”
"absolutely wrong", "idiots"? Is anything absolutely right about 27-26 9-21 conference in '23 and 27-30 9-21 in '22? Last and next to last in the West? Absolutely nothing good or right about that
You guys trying to rub the wins in the faces of people complaining about Lem’s teams’ poor showings are looking like global warming-mongers screaming “The world is obviously ending!“ after every drought, hurricane, and tornado.
Ease up and recognize that Lem hasn’t helped his cause with the past two years.
We‘re all ecstatic about the way this season has been going. I personally think it‘s more to do with Parker helping the pitching but I’ll give Lem credit for the way the defense hasn’t been looking as Keystone cop as the past two years.

We got swept by Arky before we won the Natty (and my Hogs-loving cousins let me know right after it happened). Thus, we need to get swept again so that...Wait, I hope we take at least one and winning two would be awesome.
I went back and looked at our ERA versus competition the past 4 seasons. Surprisingly, the 2024 numbers almost match those of 2021.
I’m by no stretch saying Lemonis is perfect, but considering our pitching in 22/23 and what is currently happening at Auburn, I have to believe Foxhall was indeed our biggest issue. We won in 2021 in spite of him. That’s how good the 21 pitching staff was.
Sidenote, I would be very wooly going into postseason if we still had Dohm.

This is a camp I am in. I don't think anyone's crazy enough to say the last two years were great, but Lemonis should get a lot of credit for making things work better this season.
Were we wrong though? We’re clearly improved & Lemonis does deserve credit for that. But we’re still only projected as a 2 seed with a chance to host. That’s pretty average by Mississippi State standards. And this team does have several glaring weaknesses that have been masked by a ridiculously easy schedule. We’ve only played 1 team above .500 in the SEC and the combined record of our SEC opponents is 17 games under .500. And we’re facing a complete rebuild from scratch next year.
