I wouldn't call it hate. The expectations for the program are very high, and the fan interest in the program is the best in college baseball. If the team fails to meet the expectations the coaches catch flak for it before the players. It is the high expectations and intense fan interest that causes fans to second guess every decision made by the coaches. So the coaching staff is more likely than not to disappoint most fans whether it is with respect to who they recruited, who gets to play, where players hit in the batting order, and in game decisions down to why was a particular pitch called.

And then there is the fact that they get compared to Skip and his staff's results.

NCAA bylaw 34.6-B states that if an entire weekend of baseball regional play is rained out, then the #1 seed will automatically advance.

I know I have to be careful and keep watch on that number. I don't want to waste it on something ordinary.

But to those more seasoned posters, it's simply a discussion on an individual topic.

Which must include a constant drumbeat of negativity, criticism and invective?

I get so confused in threads like this, I never know if I'm supposed to be offended or not. I spend about the same amount of time arguing with both of the types described in the thread.

It may be time to form a third party.
