Bunting and fielding ground balls is on the players. Our SS was the worst I've ever seen at that position wearing an AU uni. Our pitching is average, and Paw was a so called pitching expert.

Poor fielding has nothing to do with talent IMO. That's concentration and focus issues. Personally I will wait a year before calling the pitching average. Apparently most of our pitchers were in summer leagues all last Summer and virtually got no rest since AU starts baseball practice back in the Fall. Golloway is not letting any pitchers play summer ball this year so it will be interesting to see if that 4+ months of rest will help the pitchers next season given they apparently pitched much better in Fall camp than this season per Golloway.

It will take 2-3 recruiting cycles before we can compete.

7 losses by 1 run or in extras in by far the toughest conference in college baseball is being competitive my friend. I agree it will take 2 class though to fully replenish though since almost 1/3 of our team is graduating this year.
