At this point I feel like you just start hitting guys in the ribs until Wake puts reserves in.

If I'm the skipper, instead of intentionally walking the big kid with the 2 previous dingers, I'd have called for a #1 straight at the numbers.

Probably should’ve done it early. Those hitters were WAY to comfortable in the box all day.

Gonna be a huge rebuild with a new coach. Was a nice feel-good story this year after the Bohannon shite show but we’re a long way away from competing with the big dogs. I am not optimistic.

The rebuild won't be as difficult as you think. A good coach will get some guys and develop them and we will compete every year. Players come and go and the game turns over quickly. We just ran into a freaking buzz saw. WF is the most complete team in years. They almost certainly will win it all.

I love'ya, man but this "develop them" stuff don't get it!
You're got to pull the upper level baseball athletes to obtain the success we're all wanting, THEN develop them.

With the right hire and some NIL buy-in this could be done relatively quickly. Transfers will be plentiful this off-season.

Wake is VERY good. But that park in Omaha doesn’t have nearly the carry their home park does. They’ll probably have to win in different ways. Which at 52-10 they probably are very capable of.

We have to hold on to the players that we want to hold on to (NIL) and continue to work the transfer portal. Hopefully the extra exposure this post season will flip a few recruits/transfer guys that might be looking elsewhere.

Baseball’s Season Comes to an End with Sunday Loss at Top-Ranked Wake Forest

The Crimson Tide’s 2023 season finished at 43-21

Alabama baseball's 2023 season came to a close with a 22-5 loss at top-ranked Wake Forest on Sunday afternoon at David F. Couch Ballpark. The Crimson Tide finished the year at 43-21 overall.

Wake struck for three in the first with Alabama answering with two in the home half on the power of an Andrew Pinckney home run. The Demon Deacons added two in the second with UA countering for one on a solo homer from Colby Shelton. Wake then put together a five-run third to set the score at 10-3 after three. The two teams were held scoreless until the sixth, trading runs over the final three frames for a 22-5 final.

Wake Forest starter Josh Hartle (11-2) picked up the win while the loss was tagged to Alabama's Jacob McNairy (7-3).

From Interim Head Coach Jason Jackson
"I've done this a long time, and I've never been more proud of a group of individuals than I am of this group. I think they are everything that is good about college athletics. I think they are everything that is good about the world today. The character they've shown and the resiliency they've shown these past couple of months, I think serve as a great example to hopefully a lot of people."

I would probably prefer to go hire a top notch proven coach if they can. JJ to me is a fallback option to me.

JJ did a fantastic job under difficult circumstances but the emotional interim coach hire rarely works out in any sport. I'm ok with him as a fallback option, but we should swing higher first.

Well, shite.

That was fast.
