No, I wasn't cruising Fullerton message boards to see how they felt about losing their baseball coach.



They came here. One could argue it was just sour grapes but the long-time fullerton/lsu fan on here had the same sentiments and he's pretty levelheaded.

Besides, it's not like he was very successful at Fullerton (at least not towards the end). They were on a downward slide when he left.

Could be sour grapes. Whether he is a "good coach" is pretty subjective I guess, but him taking Irvine to a CWS for the first time in a while and then taking Fullerton too would suggest to me that he is a pretty good coach. As has been mentioned, he hasn't had the arms here that he could get out in California.

From the few games I watched last year, he also tried to force the issue on the base paths. The point is that what he is doing isn't working and it doesn't look like he will get things turned around. Todd Raleigh left a bad situation, but he has had time to fix it or at least show progress.
