A little pick-me-up for your morning
Rebels Fall to Bama 6-3 in Game Two of SEC Tournament | David Brandt
I watched it. It sucked. And for everyone who thinks we need to hire a new hitting coach, there comes a time when you have to think it's not on the hitting coaches. Maybe the caliber of hitters that we've recruited the past few years has finally caught up to us. We currently have two rebels batting over .300 in conference play. Two. Actually, that's not true. Tanner Mathis is batting .303 in conference, but he doesn't play.

This is excellent. I've been looking all over for information about some of our guys who are playing in lesser-known areas. One question that remains unanswered: Where is Clarence Sanders? Does anyone know? Anyone? I was also pretty shocked to see how many of our players lead their team in scoring. Are the teams in Europe just deplorable? I mean, we have a horrible basketball program... how does this happen?
NCAA Closes Correspondence Course Door | The Sporting News Blog
Yes! We just made it. Jerrell Powe and Michael Oher, two of the greatest Rebels of all time, benefited from O's crafty academic loopholes. It's fine that other schools won't be able to follow suit now. In other news, how terrible does BYU look with this ruling? The answer:pretty awful. The NCAA has basically said, "BYU offers classes online that are less reputable than Wayne County High School's Spanish classes."

I think we own Juco a big Thank You
he bit the bullet and posted the round up in Ghost’s I-don’t-work-in-a-real-office absence. Also, coke in the morning is what gets me going too!
Agree on the talent thing
we definitely mis-eval’ed on several during Reinstatle’s years as recruiting coordinator/hitting coach. Seems Bianco has noticed that as well as the size of the recently signed class indicates a fairly large overhaul of the roster, even if we lose a few to the draft. However, an experienced hitting coach can take a slightly less talented player and groom him into a decent hitter. Several of our guys have regressed since their first years on field. That is on coaching.

I agree that the Reinstatle hire was an extremely poor one....
He needs to make another Dan McDonnell-type hire.
True.
But as much as we all want it ( a DM type hire you speak of), are we going to do anything?? Its obvious we need some professional guys on staff teaching hitting and a solid approach at the plate instead of just having assistants that used to pinch run for Bianco telling them to hack the shit out of anything close to the plate. And I’m not saying that is or isn’t the only problem. It may be one of a few. With that being said, the 2011 class recruiting wise looks solid, assuming we dont get raped by the MLB draft. We just need professional guys as assistants who know exactly how to get the most possible out of our talent, and I’m not sure that right now we have that.
