We are not a baseball school

We are not a baseball school and have been good enough years ago to get to Omaha but have never been good enough to win. Would a new coach help? Maybe but competition is tough.

Looking at all time list Clemson is very much a baseball school. I understand people being upset but saying dumb things isn't going to help.

Fact of matter is we haven't made CWS or even advanced past regional since 2010. We got lucky & won the ACC early on, but the program has regressed since then. Baseball used to be the 1 sport could count on to have a good season, be ranked in top 25, & be in contention when i was growing up...now, not so much

Well when you fire a HOF coach who gave you the best years

the program ever had... you are kinda asking for walking through the desert for 40 years.
We finished 3rd and 4th nationally a few times under the last coach we fired. Only missed the NCAA ONCE in about 30 years. And made the Super regionals like 9 or 10 times. 4 or 5 years after we finished 3rd, we thought it was a good idea to aggressively cut ties with the best coaching tree in baseball history for a hot coach that helped our rivals beat us.... this was what I warned against. Things were good. Things are worse now.

time he was let go. Even if Monte Lee ultimately doesn't work out, it does not mean that the Leggett firing was the wrong move at the time. I personally believe it was a year or two late in coming.
That does not diminish the fact that he did some good things at Clemson. But, those good things had become history by the time he was let go.
We here on the TNets could argue that back and forth till the next millineum, and the decision will remain the same. Time to move on to the present and future, maybe?

deserve, unfortunately for the rest of us. As long as your impatient and short-sighted approach remains, the Clemson baseball collapse will continue to fester.
You guys screwed up… and you guys won’t fix it… because you guys are wrong.
Hard to put something in the past which is still here. Misguided people with bad perspectives.

He was as stubborn as it came back when it was way easier to win in college baseball.
A lot more schools are a lot more serious about it than Clemson now too which is sad.

His record in his last few years shows that clearly. He left the program in a lot worse shape than it was when he arrived. Mostly due to his reputation and how hard he was to be around.
A lot more schools are a lot more serious about baseball than Clemson now too which is sad.
