Has a team EVER started the season #1 and not even made a regional?


Considering we are the first #1 to drop out of the rankings in March, I doubt it....

I never would have expected the team to look so lost at the plate with our hitting coach still in the ballpark.

This observation should convince anyone with a brain cell that Earley was NOT our hitting coach….that may have been his title, but he damn sure wasn't THE hitting coach….


Yep… just like when Jimbo had an "offensive coordinator"

I see zero reason to retain Earley at the moment.
You should prepare yourself that he will get a second year.


That's fine, but he will field the worst roster in the SEC and attendance will reach roughly a 10 year low so…..

Will set us back in recruiting even more too.

Real shame. This will be a historic failure on every level.

So you're saying I may be able to pick up season tickets....
Baseball fans, always trying to look at the bright side of things!

Maybe your family, trouble's and ensign can finely get season tickets!

He absolutely was, and has an excellent track record as a hitting coach. He is elite in that role.

Trev is going to have a decision to make at the end of the season, and I'm not sure it shouldn't be a fairly easy one...

It's also possible that Earley is a great hitting coach, and Longley isnt...

This is why I work really hard to sync our radio broadcast with the TV visual....so I *don't* have to listen to the ESPN announcers.....


They were actually really good tonight.


That's shocking.... At this point I just assume they'll make me mad.

Mistake pitch on HR and Jace with error cost 4 runs. Need to play clean.

How many pitchers did they use? We have full bullpen tomorrow.

One can only hope. I still kick myself for not just getting tickets after I graduated, even if we did move out of state for a while.

Team has no edge. Jace was awake early but rest of the team is sleepwalking. Everyone looks like they are waiting for somebody to do something.

If that's the case Early should have taken over 10 games ago

He's the boss

If we don't get it together, then we need to fire Earley as soon as it's clear we aren't making the post season. This cannot continue. This may be the most underperforming team we've had in the big 3 men's sports in over 25 years. And that's saying something for us.

There is no player leadership. That seems abundantly clear at this point.

Wasn't he on our list this last year, and he essentially made it clear he wanted to stay in Tuscaloosa? I remember his name being brought up a bunch because of his connection to the area and A&M

That's the kind of call that makes you wonder if Earley knows wtf he's doing. Bring a freshman in with the tying run on second for his first AB of the year.

I think it FAR more likely that Earley is frozen in his position of newfound power and doesn't know how to navigate it properly and trying to maintain the very titles he has to content with now. i.e. he has an actual hitting coach now and doesn't want to step on Longley's toes because he is not even confident in his own role yet.

Makes more sense to me than some phantom hitting coach last year.... considering I have also seen the above scenario happen in the workplace before by those who got promoted too early.

The lethargy of this team is terrible, no energy at all. The offensive ineptitude is historic. The number of strikeouts tonight just pathetic. No answers. Make drastic changes. Sit dudes. Throw bats on the field. Bunt every at bat until we get a baserunner. Make guys that strike out looking or swing at a ball walk to the plate without a bat next at bat, Rip some ass. Do something to elevate the urgency of this despicably garbage ass offense.

It's gonna take more than one down season to loosen up the season ticket market

Maybe a lot more than one season

I agree with this. I am a little surprised that Kelly hasn't been a more effective mentor. I do think Earley will improve a ton in year 2.

This is the most Aggie team ever…unreal. The Earley experiment needs to end immediately.

I don't disagree.

A lot of people have said wonderful things about Earley as a hitting coach (not just our current players).

At this point, I have to think Longley is the issue

But that point, you have to trust your staff to an extent. It's the same reason I wish Elko had taken over defense this past football season, but apparently didnt.
