2019 AAC Baseball Tourney Thread

[Bigschtick]

We have squandered a golden opportunity to sneak into the regionals. At the end of 4, in the early game, Wichita State leads ECU 12-1. ECU about to get run ruled out of the tourney.

Wow

Robert yes, I guess we were, in fact, asking them to much to win one stinking game!

We're asking them to win 3 minimum, possibly 4 games. Anything short of winning the AAC tournament is failure. It may be too much to ask of a team that's been consistently inconsistent, with questionable pitching.

[winwave]

The game will start at 6;44 CT.

3rd base coach ran us out of a potential big 2 out rally. 2-1 UCF going to the bottom of the 5th.

[nawlinspete]

Baserunner ran through coach's stop sign . Bad on Jensen , not the coach .

[TURVS71]

Tell me again why we should NOT fire Jewitt?
Major end of season collapse ...

[HoustonWave]

Done. Huge opportunity, to win the tournament bumbled away.

[Wave755]

Final: UCF 6, Wave 2

Season over.

Owned by UNO and SELA also.

Absolutely pathetic! We really collapsed the latter half of the season and in the conference tournament. There is no reasonable justification to keep Jewett around any longer.

Cincy and WSU improved as the season progressed. We didn’t.
I’m sure we’ll get a complete turnover on our pitching roster next year but until they get here and prove it here I’m not thinking we win anymore games next year. I thought we had enough offensive talent to get a Regional this season but we fell short again for the 3rd year.

[winwave]

Just awful. He's got to go. No excuses.

[51WaveBG]

Let's face the obvious, with a few exceptions, this is a very poor team, starting at the top and going all the way down to the bottom. We need a complete turnover, with TJ being the first to go. Hire a true Head Coach, who will bring in some good
quality asst. coaches and get them to beat the bushes for some real talented players, especially pitchers. This team fell apart
in the last half of the season and a good HC would not have let this happen.

I don’t know if he would give us the time of day at this point, but it’s time to put together a legitimate package, give him whatever he asks for admissions wise and send the President, AD and whoever else is of importance to shake Gautreaus house and beg him to take the job.

[sader24]

Or we could just keep on the Conroy plan, schedule Bs teams so we can get 30 wins a season, fall apart at the end and never make a meaningful postseason appearance.

There are plenty of talented coaches out there who would want the job!
We do not have to beg anyone including Gautreaus!

I think sader is just trying to make a point.
They won’t need to beg. However if JG gets an offer in the SEC it will be too late at that point.

What can u give him admission’s wise? You have 11.7 scholarships and anything behind has to be applied equally to all students, tmk.
I guess you could improve juco standards but again that would have to also be applied to all transfers and not just athletes.
This is way outside the box, but I think that building Turchin (and everything that comes with it) might be the biggest mistake since leaving the SEC. Oh and I am a huge baseball fan and played the game in college.

I’d disagree on building Turchin was a mistake. The old park was destroyed by Katrina. We played at Zephyr for two years. That was a disaster. We built a great baseball program and the new stadium was warranted of which the majority of it was funded by baseball donors in the exact footprint of the old stadium. Having no Turchin would have not done one thing to change the NIMBY’s desire to limit the height and other restrictions of Yulman. The mistake was letting the NIMBYS dictate the height of Yulman. Many would say the bigger mistake was actually leaving the Dome and not building a new arena for basketball where Yulman sits today.

I guess that’s my point. No turchin allows for a
larger footprint for Yulman so we can do traditional luxury boxes and not these goofy premium only seating. Also allows for easy expansion if the B12 or acc comes asking. Then u have space for a bball arena and even a IPF plus added parking for all students and employees, which is a huge need
I just don’t know that TU baseball will ever be a money maker again. Yet the stadium takes up far and away the most space. I hope I am wrong.

[golfnut69]

In regards to teh NIMBY's the only ones who complained lived on Audubon, those on the the north side of Claiborne were concerend with on street parking in front of their homes/houses/abodes for a max of 6 Saturdays per year.....9 households held SC, RD and Tulane hostage..the answer was to build the "enclosed' Glazier club on the west side, it was "grandfathered" in due to the height of exisitng buildings already on campus.....SC, RD and the Tulane Board ignored the legal advice in regards to that building plan...SC, RD and the Tulane Board are soley resposible of the POS that is called Yulman

+1,000. And Turchin has a cheap feel to it with the aluminum stands that echo with each step. Tear it down and put the IPF and new Arena on that space. Build a new baseball complex on Jefferson Highway--most the baseball fans drive to the games anyway.
