And I forgot, No Vandy so it’s 13 and 15. My deductive skills may be off a tad.

For a chance to live somewhere other than purgatory….absolutely. If the powers that be decide to let her ride out her contract, so be it. I’ll watch and hope they win next year and voice my displeasure if they don’t.

TT has 3.5 million in their roster, give Beth 3.5 and what do you think would happen?

She would manage it poorly like everything else.
Quit giving me lobs.

Like I said, quit living in the past. Army was dominant at one time. I guess they’re a better program than a lot of the SEC schools that have never won anything? Is that what I’m supposed to understand? Or can we only go back as far as when LSU was relevant?
Because the present obviously means nothing.

Who cares, that doesn’t make the program better…Is Texas A&M a better football program? Ole Miss? Oklahoma ? Houston? Vandy? They all must be since they beat us in football this past yr

Did you just answer your own question? In 2025, those programs were all better than us. Unless we have some win against them that I’m not privy too. You gotta get out the past and live in the present.

Well at least we agree on one thing, I do have some very good points.
The point remains the same, she doesn’t manage anything well. Do you think she doesn’t manage the team now? How’s that working out?
She should have let Howard manage offense while he was here… and not saying he was the second coming, just better than her. And, she should have never let the bump on the log Leftwitch manage anything, catchers, helping hitters, nothing.
And I’ll say it again, since she has become a mother Beth’s coaching style has changed and she’s way more family friendly with the girls instead of the hard agressive tyrant she once was.

So are you saying that she is great at managing her assistants and that’s why they’ve had sooooo much success? I’m so confused at what you’re trying to say.
Retain her for next year and possibly have another mediocre year because she is/can be a good manager? Or, you know she is not capable of bringing us any success now or in the future but I have to pay the buyout out of my pocket so let’s keep her at least one more year?
Maybe Beth should have gone out of her way to retain Lance. I mean, according to you Alabama has the best pitcher in the game. Man she is such a good manager.

Which falls back on who? Keep doing the same thing over and over and expect different results. Keep defending. Let it shine!!

Well, the performance of the ACC in the playoffs would tell a different story. So, let it shine.

If yall don’t know, Beth is very superstitious and because they won last Friday with the Teal….

That would be a discussion to be had, but in your hypothetical, how many SEC titles? How many playoff wins? Everything I gave you was actuality and not hypothetical.
I mean what if Deifel and Baldwin and Weekly and Gajewski all make the WCWS this year and Beth doesn’t? Are they now better than Beth in your mind?
What if Ford makes the next three WCWS? Is she better than Beth in your mind?
We can go on and on like this….Lets just deal in the current facts because that’s the only certainty.
And the fact is that as of this moment, she has done nothing of note in the last 8 years and has no reason to be retained. That being said, If and that’s a huge if, they beat Bama this weekend then a discussion can be had about extending because she will have improved and I won’t have a problem with it. But shes gotta perform better than she’s been performing. If not, I have no problem with her being shown the door. And anyone who doesn’t expect at least that should be ashamed for accepting mediocrity and not demanding more.
