I mean, he did go into BR and hand Mainieri his behind in a 2 game sweep.   So obviously he probably deserves to be paid more than his inferior...

LSU has lost several Regional's at home the past few years. I would not pay Whitting a plug nickel for beating LSU in Baton Rouge.

Well,

here is the poop.

We have lurkers who read this board, and any time a coach is mentioned here, the afore mentioned coach gets a raise. 

Now we all know that $$$ does not matter to UT, but it does make it more attractive for a coach to keep his old job. Change is harder the older you get. Again this is proof that  The University of Texas is the dream job that schools are afraid of losing their coaches to, regardless of sport!

I fully expect to Texas to get their man. 

However because of the afore mentioned lurkers, no name will leak past these lips.

(TAMU coach) (Miami coach) (okie lite coach) ssshhhhh

Well I went to ETBU, Lamar, Hardin-Simmons, Lamar-Orange and SHSU, but have followed Texas baseball since I was a kid.  The smack that gets thrown out between the different schools gets old.  I miss the old SWC days, and feel that is the way it should be.  I don't get upset about conference loyalty.  I would like to see them get a good coach, and feel like all those big schools can get whoever they want.  UT, TAMU, TCU, TTU, U of H, Baylor, RIce, SHSU, Lamar, and several others - we have great baseball in Texas.

I assume they are waiting for the CWS to end. Not much happening otherwise.

At this point I would be shocked if a land a big fish. The deciding factor used to be the money, now most programs can match the money. Why would they leave to re-build UT?

 Should have let Augie have a farewell tour the last year of his contract then, they could have had more time to get a REAL coach. Doesn't look good when your looking at U of H for a coach !

It was time for a change. There are some good, young coaches out there (not named Todd Whitting) that will be successful if given the opportunity.

All those guys that "turned down" the job started somewhere.  

Time to drop the ego and give one of them a chance to prove himself. It can't be any worse that it has been for the past two seasons.

I've heard Tony Larussa and Joe Torre are looking to get back to coaching.  Maybe Bobby Cox also if the other 2 don't work out. 

Hey Mack, surprised TCU is racing past little brother aggy in baseball now too?   I didn't realize how badly we dominated you guys for a century in that sport as well.  The running away may not have just been for football purposes.  But thanks again, we all appreciate the upgrade with the Horned Frogs!

You shouldn't thank us too much. What was the score last time y'all played?  50-7?

    • Either way,one game lead in the series. I rely to much on word of mouth 
    • West Orange Stark has been a powerhouse since I csn remember. At some point, your bound to fall off to some degree. Alabama has 3 or 4 loses this season. Who would have thought? Has Orange lost kids to LCM or even Orangefield?
    • Interesting matchup this Friday. Both teams have very good offensive and defensive lines, which will make this game interesting. Having watched Texas High all season, they have a wide open offense with very good skill players. If you look at their stats they run the ball 57% of the time and pass 43% of the time. Personally, that is a bit deceiving, as most of their games have seen reserves running the ball in the 4th quarter. I would estimate the primary offense is 50/50. Through 12 games they have run for 3,224 yds (48tds) and passed for 2,894 yds (32 yds). Potter, the Tiger QB, has been very efficient with a 69% completion rate and 1 interception (which came from a tipped pass). The passing is distributed primarily to 4 receivers…. Ball (865), Wrightner (811), Montgomery (532), & Pilgreen (392). The rushing comes from 3 running backs … Johnson (1,432), Ball (768) & Moore (716).  The Tiger defense is solid and very quick.    Hope #15 is healthy enough to play. He is a test for any defense. I was concerned about the Nederland RB, but felt Texas High did a good job containing him. I wish this game was in the afternoon, as Nachitoches is having their Festival of Lights and their will not be any rooms in the inns and restaurants will be full so plan accordingly. PNG are state champions until someone knocks them off, so I extend the Indians the respect they deserve. Pulling for the Tigers.  
    • The baseball coach has a ton of experience at high school and college level and hasn’t done anything for I think around 7 years now,it’s just something that the higher ups live with.And there has been talent come through that he hasn’t done anything with!
    • If I had to point out one team that has impressed me the most; Barbers Hill
