Clemson baseball goes 40-13, secures a national seed

and all I hear on this board is how weak this team is. Some say they MUST. Win a regional to have a successful season but this team has already proved itself.
Eric Batich is already ahead of schedule in rebuilding the baseball program in just two years. Clemson will return to a perennial power in baseball very soon if not this year.

It would be more compelling if you spelled the coach's name correctly.
I know, I know, it's a petty little nit-picking thing and your point is still valid, blah, blah, blah.
And yet it's true that not really knowing how to spell the head coach's name does diminish the gravitas of your statement.

If the team isn't up 7-0 in the 3rd inning some Debby downers will be all over tnet letting everyone know.
If clemsons baseball team is up 7-0 they will just complain about Clemson's QB instead .
Some folks are half empty .

I don't understand why so many are afraid to admit that we could be up 5-0 going into the 7th or even 8th inning and you know there's a reasonable chance the bullpen will blow it. Saying it out loud doesn't jinx the team or make it happen. Or make you less of a fan. It's a reasonable concern based on empirical evidence. TigerNet is a forum to allow fans to share these concerns with fellow Clemson fans. Refusing to acknowledge reality is a coping mechanism for some however. Different strokes for different folks.

I wouldn't say we've secured a national seed yet. Still some baseball to play. Lots of disparity in the different polls. NC State gets on a roll like they are now, they'll be a national seed.

We’re in the top 8 in D1 baseball, Baseball America, and RPI as of this week. How is that lots of disparity? You’ve become quite negative about Clemson baseball. Makes no sense.

No I haven't. Last week poll d1 we're 4th. Baseball America 10th. 3 days ago there was an article on here. Project us from 4-7. That's pretty close to slipping to 9th. Say nc st jumps up and wins acc or wake. We'll get bumped down vs getting 2 in. Different with sec. Sec they'd both get in.
But I'm a realist. We're not a top 10 team imo. Not with the injuries we've had, both pre-season and during the season. @tigerlinks, who is one of the most positive people on here posted a very true assessment.
Say we go into our pod with the weakest teams in our pod. We go 0-2. That will be taken into account.
Besides, y'all automatically jumped on me and I didn't disagree with the original post except the fact that a national seed wasn't locked up just because we beat bc.

Before this weekend, the last d1 projection only had the acc with 3 national seeds. Unc, Clemson at 6th. And wake at 8. Fsu was 9. Wake will drop out, fsu didn't help their cause with a split at ga tech.
Oklahoma swept their series and its a big push to get a b12 as a national seed. East Carolina swept rice.
So, all I'm saying in my post is there's plenty of baseball left to say we've locked a national seed. If either wake, fsu or nc st win the acc tournament, they'll be a national seed. I don't see unc getting bumped out winning reg season. If East Carolina and Oklahoma win their tournaments, I think both of them will bump to a national seed.
So, ALL I was saying, we won't know until after this week what our seed will be. I can definitely see us slip to 9... especially if we don't win our pod.
Can you dispute my statement?

No. Too many come-from-behind and 14-12 wins. Pitching will most likely be Clemson's downfall this season. But I am very optimistic about Bakich and the future.

Very little attn to what happens in a conf tournament. Someone could steal a bid by winning an auto but as far as seeding ….pfft, it’s pretty much set before hand

I TU alot posts that are perceived to be negative. Clover65 isn't one of them. At least 2 that you cited was concerning sending crighton. 90% felt that was a bad decision and I did too. That wasn't negative towards Bakich. I love the man. But our media had every right to ask him why crighton was sent on a shallow ball and why Jarrell didn't take 2nd. Those little things hurt in regionals.
As for the one about Will. It too was in response to another post concerning whether he should go MLB or not. We talk about football players entering draft in their junior year. It's just discussion, not trashing the fella. If you read that post, I went to a lot of Will games in hs. Outstanding kid and imo made the right decision going baseball full time.
In fact, I congratulated the family directly. He's got a great chance to be top 10 round draft or better if he comes back, continue to get healthy and grows. Just needs anotheregional.
Yes, I've stated on several occasions to the lunatic fringe that whine why we weren't moved to number one or why we fell in the polls vs an sec school that didn't. Have you watched some of the other teams? So, no trophy for saying I told anyone so. I'm more disappointed than you, I can promise you or anyone that when they lose.
This is a good team, great chemistry, can beat anyone on any given night. But when there's a discussion (like every sport) on what any given teams ceiling is, I give an honest opinion. Nothing negative. But you're entitled to your opinion. Please put me on ignore. Good day.

Will Taylor is currently projected in the Top 10 rounds by Baseball America. I can agree he should come back and find “ zero chance going b4 20th” insulting. Would you share that assessment with his family?
You’ve described Bakich’s coaching as “#### poor” and called him “dumb” just in these 4 posts.
And this notion that we have baseball media that should “rake Bakich a new one” is pretty untethered from reality.
These are not objective observations offered simply for discussion.

You're taking one post from one thread concerning two decisions in one baseball game in which most agreed and making it sound like it's a global attack on the coach. It was simply one decision in one game.
Yes, I would tell Williams family that imo I don't see William getting an offer.

I’m quoting you. Turn down the temperature if you don’t want to come across as entitled and attacking.
And you would tell his parents he “has zero chance of going before the 20th round”? He went 19th round out of high school. Most assessments are that he has improved his status. Baseball America has him as just over the 100th pick - which is closer to the first round than the 20th. I’m seeing him at 33rd and 37th on mlb draft boards. Seems like a weird flex to be the Clemson fan that wants to trash mouth Will Taylor to his parent’s face.

Completely disagree with the first part. If this team doesn’t win a regional, it is not a successful season in anyway. Ask Coach if last season was a successful season? His answer would be no. He would tell you we had great moments but because of the finish, it wasn’t a great season.

Our relief pitching is shaky annd we’ve had a couple of crucial injuries. Other than that, this is a d good team and easily one of the Top 10 in the country. Monte’s last few years we barely made the ACCT. Bakich has already won the league, won the division and has been a sold lock for a Regional Host since half way thru the season. Baseball can be strange. Last years MLB season the top two teams in each league got bounced in the first round. Do I want to see us go to Omaha? Heck yeah but regardless, this has been a great season.
