    You guys have been consistently in the top 5 all season in all the polls, we started high and then fell when we got off to a slow start and at one point before conference play we were barely .500. But Augie has righted the ship and we are leading the B12 and sit right behind the Huskers at # 5 in the polls.

    3 game series at Disch-Falk April 21,22,23.

    Should be a great series. You've got one pitcher that beat the Irish and looked great doing it, I don't expect to beat that guy. But 2 outta 3 would be nice!!

    Don't take anything from sweeping us... we totally and completely suck.

    The new guy (plucked from NU by the way) has taken us to DEAD LAST in conference. A place we've never been before.

    And to think... Bill Byrne TURNED DOWN Wayne Graham for the job.


    :oops:

    Scott,

    Are the Big Cigars thinking it's a personel problem or a coaching problem?

    For now, most are assuming personel. We didn't exactly have thunder bats last year, and some of those guys are gone. Credit has been given for more aggressive baserunning, and the pitching has been good. We just can't score runs in any reasonable amount. I think Childress will be given at least a couple more years to show his recruiting ability. If we're not moving up by then... he won't be around.
    Our baseball team has been actually paying for itself, but last place teams won't keep that intact for long...

    Scott.........

    <t>Trust me on this he is the right guy. I will revisit this in the future. I talk to a great number of baseball people in the Houston area that cover all aspects of the game from high school to the colleges and they all tell me the Aggies have the right guy. Sure it sucks at this time but hang on help is on the way.</t>
