Our baseball team is obviously in a drastic state of decline. I mean, a mid top 25 ranking the year after we win a national championship is unacceptable. Our program is better than that! There's no excuse for Paul Mainieri allowing Anthony Ranaudo to get hurt for most of the year. Also, he should've gone out and convinced some top pro prospect pitchers to skip the pros and come to college, because we ALL know that true freshman pitchers are much better than the former top "prospect" So and Jrs on the team now. C'mon MAAAN! No WAY Nick Saban would've let this happen. So here's the poll, how many games will it take for Coach Mainieri to lose his job?

For all of you who have an elementary understanding of sattire, that post is meant to be a joke about our fan base.
On a more serious note, losing to UNO was embarrassing. I don't think it points to anything more than an overall lack of focus/ confidence. No doubt coach mainieri will get these guys turned around. We don't need a new roster, we need this roster to play with a chip on thier shoulders.

Agreed. If the UNO loss doesn't rattle their cages, nothing will. We'll be aight.

My compadres CT and OG, you both have been eating uncooked poke salad. We ain't gonna be aight! We don't have a single starting pitcher right now. We don't have a reliable 3rd base. We don't hit in the clutch. In the Ole Myth series, we left an average of more than 13 baserunners hangin'. With Watkins out, we have two weak batting positions. We have an inept 3rd base coach who apparently thinks all our guys have 4.3 forty times. And, the same inept 3rd base coach also appears to be teaching our batters to take 1-2 pitches that are close to the strike zone. At first, I thought PM was leaving the starting pitcher in the game too long. Now, I think he's afraid to pull the starter. Other than that, we're doing fine! I wish the above wasn't true, but unless some folks step up immediately, we'll be playing in a regional at Pepperdine with little chance of making it to Omaha.

With last year under his belt, I give him a decade

aw man thanks for that disclaimer because you didn't lay it on incredibly thick or anything. You're also the first to make one of these hilarious threads

I agree. PM won with Smoke's players. He will fizzle out now.

If we don't win 2/3 this weekend I'll be concerned about us this year. I didn't expect another CWS title this year but I do expect us to be at the top or near it in the overall rankings and SEC...which we are.

Clearly you're being sarcastic so this was no shot at you
