re: Baseball America Preseason Top 25

When did you acknowledge our recruiting? I must have missed it.

I don't need to. I'm not the one coming up with excuses as to why y'all shouldn't be in the top (or whatever you're arguing) and claim them as facts.

Sorry -- I deal in tangible matters. And kids being good highschool players and/or had a really good tournament when Kendall Rogers was watching isn't what I describe as tangible.

Weren't you just saying something about how y'all won't drop off because y'all signed the #2 recruiting class last year?

Who would you prefer that I compare him to then? Smoke is the best possible comparison in college baseball in the last decade or so. You just don't like the comparison because you know where it ended in that Smoke ultimately failed at LSU. He was JUST as good in his first year as Holbrook -- and even took them to Omaha in years 2 and 3. So, again, please use facts to invalidate the comparison -- if you can?

---

These aren't facts. You can't compare two different coaching change situations at two different schools and come up with a way to project our future success. Do you know what a fact is?

quote:

But it takes a special coach with special players to know how to win with the bright lights on in the postseason -- and Holbrook simply hasn't proven a damn thing yet.

Neither has your coach, so I don't know why you're trying to argue y'all will be better than us this year.
