He used to be a great recruiter and was right in the middle of things nationally - seemed to know what was going on and how to connect with and motivate his players.

Now he seems to be looking in from the outside more and more.

Oh yeah he's just forgot everything about how to coach.

defensive lapses... Do we have any size coming in that will help us? Our players are so small

or Poughkeepsie, we'll be alright. The players in the South are not as tough as the New England boys.

the players over the years act like they aren't having any fun playing baseball. They are to up tight.
