Re: 2019 AAC Baseball Tourney Thread

I think we put too many resources into baseball, but that's me. That being said, there's no way we spend millions of dollars to move to a baseball stadium that's 10 miles from campus, despite the other benefits we get. Turchin is still relatively new; we're not ripping it down. Honestly I would arg...

Re: 2019 AAC Baseball Tourney Thread

Am I reading this correctly. ....Tear down a top 25 facility? And people wonder why we are where we are in all sports. You don't think if we replace Turchin with Zephyr Field we'd still have a top 25 facility? Think about it for a minute. You're talking a AAA quality minor league facility that seat...

Re: Why is Josh Bates not playing?

Pitchers are bad, can’t throw strikes. Jewett fires pitching coach. Brings in new pitching coach Latham who had had 6-7 top 25 era staffs in a row at sela, and pitchers are still bad and can’t throw strikes. Maybe it’s just because these pitchers are just bad and not aac quality. That is on Jewett a...

Re: AAC voted NO in adding an additional paid baseball coach

So the AD's voted one way and the University Presidents voted against their wishes? The way i understand it is that the 8 ADs of AAC all voted yes. Then the AAC representative that was required to submit the vote, went rogue and submitted that the conference voted no on the official ballot. It was ...

AAC voted NO in adding an additional paid baseball coach

AAC voted no in adding a 3rd paid baseball coach, but all the university's ADs voted "yes" for it. Looks like the AAC went rogue at the official ballot box and voted against the ADs choice not representing them. Pretty crazy, and unprecedented i would think. Will be interesting to see what...

Jumped up this past year with the addition of Jewetts players, Acy Owen, Trent Johnson, Sean Chandler (drafted), and Will Mcaffer. 2016 Pierce class was ranked in 90s. Jumped 30 spots this ...

Re: Potential head football coach candidates search

Can’t believe it was as close as it was. Defense had great timely turnovers to kind of mitigate some of there weaknesses. Man we were so close!!

Re: Seat Licenses

Another example of how out of touch admin is to its own fanbase. Seat license will definitely happen in future and it should if we want to take that next step and be in running of P5.

Re: Tulane/LSU baseball series

The way to solve this is to propose playing them in a weekend series home and home after Alleva is fired. I’d even do a 2 for 1. Or you could play one in BR, 1 at Turchin and 1 at the Shrine. It would be a huge money maker and a big win for the fans. That could be only possible if we started winnin...

It’s our our home game so we get the TV money. Tulane wanted more money from Cox for this particular game in fact as much as LSU gets for its televised games. Cox said no to that so Tulane declined to televise it. Alleva was mad because the game has always been on TV. He begged Tulane to televise i...

Re: Tulane/LSU baseball series

Does anyone know why we cancelled the tv last year? Was it because LSU was wanting a sweeter deal or majority of the tv revenue for our own home game, or was it because we thought we could make more money by using all access and being greedy?
