People are just upset he doesn't get tossed like Smoke used to I guess.. I'm not the guy's biggest fan but it's tough to argue with his results. It's so much harder to win a NC now than it was in the 1990s.

Typical response for defending him.
Skip was a great pitching coach and excellent at getting his defense to match. He was able to adapt his style as times changed. He is the reason there it is difficult to win, but make no mistake he coached against some super teams in Witchita State and OSU and TAMU with all those MLB players in that program in '99.

What exactly does CPM bring? Manager? I don't think that's enough. Watch the MSU program in 2-3 years.
You have to have a coach that has a special talent and he doesn't.
Les 2.0. Given a pass because of a NC almost 8 years ago. We haven't been in contention AT ALL since then. That's the issue.
