I wanted to take a moment to express my sheer amazement and admiration for our new baseball coach, Erik Bakich. In just one year, he has orchestrated a monumental turnaround for our beloved Clemson Tigers baseball program. It's truly a sight to behold!
When Coach Bakich stepped in, he inherited a team that had been struggling and failing to meet its full potential under the previous coaching regime. However, with his exceptional leadership, strategic vision, and a touch of magic, he has taken our Tigers from being a non-contender to securing a top 6 national seed in record time!
But what sets this transformation apart is not only Coach Bakich's incredible impact but also the reunion he orchestrated. He brought back a beloved legend, none other than Coach Jack Leggett, into the heart of our program. The return of Coach Leggett has injected an unparalleled sense of pride, wisdom, and tradition into our team.
Coach Bakich's decision to bring back Coach Leggett is a testament to his deep respect for the history and legacy of Clemson baseball. It demonstrates his commitment to preserving and building upon the rich foundation laid by those who came before him. Together, this dynamic duo is taking Clemson baseball to new heights, bridging the gap between the past and the future.
Under Coach Bakich's guidance and with the invaluable wisdom of Coach Leggett, our Tigers have shown remarkable growth and tenacity. They have exemplified the true spirit of Clemson baseball, embodying resilience, sportsmanship, and a relentless pursuit of greatness.
But let's not forget the unwavering support of the Clemson faithful. We, as fans, have stood by our team through thick and thin, and our dedication and enthusiasm have undoubtedly played a role in this resurgence. Together, alongside Coach Bakich, Coach Leggett, and our remarkable players, we form an unstoppable force.
So, let's rally behind Coach Bakich, Coach Leggett, and our Tigers as they continue their remarkable journey. With their combined wisdom, the unwavering determination of our players, and our united support, there's no limit to what we can achieve. We're witnessing the renaissance of Clemson baseball, and it's an incredible time to be a part of this historic program!
Go Tigers!

To championship caliber.... and with at least 6 freshmen starters or regular contributors.... and a grad transfer who probably would not be playing at Clemson otherwise....

Wow. Come to the 21st century with the rest of us. Maybe you’re saying it was a woman because the composition was superior to most? SMH.

he's not this charismatic juggernaut in front of the camera like Dabo, for example, but just knows what he is doing as a coach seemingly always making the right adjustments and decisions.
You know, these are mostly Monty's players - just better coached with a few key pieces added.

This is the best turnaround season since Monte’s 1st year when he won the conference championship reviving the program from the Leggett malaise.

wanted him fired because the team wasnt improving and he "couldn't even win the Big Ten at Michigan." That was pretty silly, huh?
Im trying to reconcile that with the fact that Monte Lee also won the ACC his first year.
