understand the importance of having a winning record this year and the winning tradition that coach Wilhelm and coach Leggett's teams built by having all those winning season since 1958

So you think they need to be reminded how important it is to win?***

They can give us a nice start tomorrow. It'd be a sad sad day to break that record. Like you, I've never known anything but winning... At one point, I didn't think we could ever lose to UVA. That day too was a sad broken record.
Sunday's game was huge (hope not should say) because I think we could've played 500 ball. Now we have to play 600 ball. Think we can take the wake and Duke series but it may take a sweep... Or two.

This team is entirely too inconsistent...

from both a hitting and pitching standpoint to bank on being able to sweep any series.
I think everyone universally acknowledged that pitching would be a weakness this season but I don't think anyone envisioned hitting being nearly as problematic as it has become.

Unfortunately, this team needs needs fundamental baseball training again. They have done nothing well this season except making the same mistakes over and over again. Hitting, pitching, base running, and fielding seems to be absent. I remember as a Little Leaguer, our coach taught these things to us over and over again. We were a well coached team and seldom did the opposing team beat us because of our mistakes. Went undefeated 2 years in a row because the fundamentals were preached to us. This Clemson team needs some in depth training.

It’s hard to compare little league to a major D1 college program. At this level, talent and coaching are king. Yes fundamentals are the foundation but these kids wouldn’t be playing D1 baseball if they weren’t fundamentally sound.

I believe 2000 is just saying that fundamentals are what a player builds upon. That is baseball. No matter what kind of talent you have, if you can’t be productive, meaning advance runners, steal bases, make a catch at first base, you’re giving the opposing team the opportunity to beat you.
My son’s middle school team advanced runners the other night by bunting, and they won. The opposing team was expecting big hits into the outfield, not bunts. A lot of times baseball is not about talent, but about playing smart and just making a play, doesn’t have to be over the fence. Prime example: New York Yankees. All the talent that money can buy and they are currently last in their division.

Yet Monte and the media said pitching was our strong suit this year. Alluded to the fact our pen was as deep and good as any team he's had. ??

I’m to the point of thinking that Monte has been saying and throwing whatever out there to see what sticks. Whatever he says needs to be taken with a grain of salt. It’s hard to take him seriously right now. I don’t even know if his players take him seriously right now.
