I"ve only had one face-to-face interaction with Verge Ausberry in his position in the Athletic Department and he was exactly the kind of person I want representing my university.
Been interesting to say the least reading through most of these reactions on here. Easy to see who has and has not had any significant dealings with the athletic department.
Seeing some posters I thought to be well informed outing themselves. I have so much to say, but they're just not worth the effort. Much of what is going on now is trying to find common ground between two parties. Verge has done this his entire career at every level. Players, coaches, agents, administrators, boosters, the list goes on.
He gets shite done. He gives attention to detail. Had plenty opportunities to move on and climb the ladder elsewhere, but was secure enough to know where he wanted to be. Even let his kids find their way on their own with no concerns on what that meant for him.
Oh, I got plenty to say, but in the end, I'm talking to people that already know, or others that don't matter.

Personally, 2 hitting coaches are probably overkill but the fact teams hire 2 means they don’t think they’re irrelevant, contrary to what at least 1 beat writer insists.
I think it would depend upon how many and if said team used analysts to break down opposing pitching
One coach mechanical, the other analytical, but this would assume that said team has an approach at all, which would usually vary from player to player, and with the Astros outside of Paredes and Yed, not evident.
So he can sit with the pitching coach when we play them and repeat you don't have to throw it over the plate
Oh, and don't pitch to Alvarez if he happens to be in the lineup

And remember. This was the last chance a man would have to carry that burden. Next year will be automated

The baserunning not a factor
Would not have scored regardless
It was the walk. That missed call puts him at 2nd
Followed by a single ghat allowed runnerto get to 3rd standing
Bichette’s miscue didn’t matter

Mostly not fair to one of the better umps
He would tell you like Deckinger did, he will hate his life like Buckner has

Jays had to win 5 games
In an age where everyone knows balls and strikes before the ump, and the league is finally taking that burden off the umps, Game 3 IMO was a Jays victory
That Wegner bad call cost the Jays the deciding run. In a season where the 2 best teams made it to the WS and playdd good baseball, it was decided by a missed call. It was THAT close
RIP Deckinger
But Wegner has to live with it

Bonus baseball is good, esp with the drama of a Game 7
FOX getting what they wanted times 100 with Ohtani pitching too
Dodgers have to be heavily favored in my mind. So many times the double dip happens.
Gotta feel for Jays fans with Wegner’s missed call, but shite like that has destiny written all over it, but it did give us 3 more games (9 extra innings in Game 3 and Games 6 and 7)

There’s a lot of posters that were really disgusted by Landry’s involvement that are now re-thinking their position after reading your thread

I think Valenzuela did something similar too, but out of the pen only
Those extra innings also exposed some poor fundamental baseball, baserunning, and several instances of mismanagement of the roster by both managers
Could have done without seeing all that

This is a Dodgers slanted thread, and they were always winning a 7 game series regardless, but there is no arguing that the deciding run would have scored in the 2nd inning
Won’t happen next season. Just a damn shame that some good baseball from the 2 best teams this year couldn’t be decided without being scarred with that mishap

Came down to one swing.
Well, I’m sure Jays fans would say it came down to one missed pitch call. I haven’t seen much about it, and figured it wouldn’t be covered, b/c Ohtani and Freeman sells better than Dekinger level umpiring miscues
Dodgers likely win Series either way, but it ended up adding an extra game to the series that included some really bad baseball that should never have been seen.

Exactly what I’m afraid will happen
As opposed to hiring Kelly and these last 4 years?
After winning NCs with Miles and Orgeron?
I mean, the man didn't even require being able to communicate and still managed to not win anything.
But he got the girlfriend and drinking part right. :lol:
Landry knew enough not to raise ticket prices at a time when you couldn't give tickets away watching paid kids that wouldn't play for their coach.
He also knew you couldn't walk to the stadium without getting stoned breathing the air around you.
Stick to worrying about Slidell, man

He’s one of the most well respected voices in college football.
He's good looking is why he still has a voice in CFB
There's reasons he is no longer coaching
You know enough just to have a bad opinion. He won games, and he damn well knew who he could work with at the QB position and prepare him to run his offense, but that in no way translates to giving advice on off the field areas
But that's off topic anyway. Not sure how you wanted this to play out, but Woodward wasn't getting a third try at making the most important decision that his job requires when striking out badly on the first two attempts.
