It sucks for Erwin to get the loss after pitching a great game and Coastal Carolina will beat us on Tuesday.

And ND won the series playing against a horrible Clemson team that terribly needed a coaching change a few years ago. And we can expect to see a lot more of the same throughout the rest of our season, and for as long as Leggett is our Head baseball coach. I wish that Jack could at least get us back to playing like a mediocre team!!!

...and he could resign on a positive note rather than being fired after presiding over his 5th mediocre season and the steady 10 year decline of a once proud program.

Jack makes poor decisions but this is one of the worst hitting ball clubs I have seen.

I guess he is just going to ride it right to the bottom like the Captain of the Titanic. I have been so supportive of him and the program for so long, even when we have struggled of late, but even I think he is just not the guy anymore. How far we have sunk!

We simply play too tight

Jack Leg has been diminished to a fair 3rd base coach who makes himself too much part of the game and serves primarily to make our guys way too tight. Prime example - we are leaders in taking called 3rd strikes.

what we need is to start playing again like we did against the coots. we made most every play and had timely hitting.

I don't reply often, but you are absolutely right. I was an all-state high school baseball player back in the 90's so I feel I know my fair share about the game. For the past 10+ years the #1 problem I have had with our approach to hitting was the lack of aggression at the plate. We should be trying to send that ball into orbit on strikes 1 & 2. But we watch more strikes than any team I have ever seen. And the Cardinal Sin at the plate is you don't watch a third strike. Protect the plate, hence the term "Choke and Poke". Choke up, shorten your swing and poke anything close to the strike zone back up the middle!!! That's not the time to be selective. I know that the coach can't make you swing. But he can sure make you wish that you had in practice the next day. Sorry for the rant. 10 years of built up frustration came pouring out.

Well, turn the bats loose and see what happens. What do we have to lose?, all to gain. ALL-IN!!! At least the players will loosen up and have fun trying. Lets go down swing. Fighting to the last strike. The players will feel better knowing they left it all on the field. Win or Lose. Therefore, keeping them loose as well as the detemination to try harder to success the next time around. If they keep swinging, eventually they are going to make the connection and start succeeding.
