Are we in the business of pitying our opponents coaches now? If you ain’t a tiger, you’re TIGER BAIT!

I would be sick to my stomach seeing this gif repeatedly if I was a hog fan. I can't imagine how many hog fans had to get a head doctor after this one.

I cannot stand him or Arkansas. So no I will not give him any kind of ovation, I hope he continues to never win a National Title.

Dont do this. Feels like everytime this board does this to a coach they win a title within a year or two.
This board said this same stuff about corbin, bianco, o’sullivan, and ray tanner beforw they won it

what's crazy to me is he's been at Arky for 20 years

He had Nebraska rolling and didn't even get to coach those Alex Gordon and Joba Chamberlain teams

He can come be our director of player development and help Jay continue to destroy the recruiting trail.

And losing in the supers isn’t? You can’t win it all in Omaha if you don’t even have a chance to play in Omaha.

I hate this mindset. It’s on the level of saying you wanted LSU to just lose to Tennessee after the Wake loss because it was going to be hard to win it all out of the losers bracket and going 1-2 was better somehow than losing in the semifinals or the championship.

Y’all remember that week or so when Van Horn was the greatest coach ever and so much better than Jay Johnson because he cared more about the SEC tournament?

I don’t agree with this and I’m not giving a standing O to a guy who has never completed the task. Part of the game includes catching routine pop ups. They lost and he’s never won the big game. He’s just another “pretty good coach” that can’t win when it matters

DVH looks way too miserable to make it. And to think just a pop up away...

I guess if you ignore him pulling his ace after 4 innings who was dominating us

I’m not saying DVH cares about the SEC tournament at all.

I am saying when LSU lost to them and then A&M there were threads talking about Dave Van Horn being this all time great coach and better than Jay and part of the reasoning was how he cared about this sec tournament more than Jay. Even tho the fact as you state he pulled his pitcher with roughly the same amount of pitches LSU pulled their ace at.

I was just pointing out how the rant does crazy things at times.

Dave van horn is a great coach. Remember is took skip about 7 years till he won his first title. Championships aren’t a given but difficult to achieve

He threw his two best leftys at us just like he did when he sold out to win one game in our weekend series
