Well at least we agree on one thing, I do have some very good points.
The point remains the same, she doesn’t manage anything well. Do you think she doesn’t manage the team now? How’s that working out?
She should have let Howard manage offense while he was here… and not saying he was the second coming, just better than her. And, she should have never let the bump on the log Leftwitch manage anything, catchers, helping hitters, nothing.
And I’ll say it again, since she has become a mother Beth’s coaching style has changed and she’s way more family friendly with the girls instead of the hard agressive tyrant she once was.

Oh, so she can’t evaluate talent and see potential. Got it.

So are you saying that she is great at managing her assistants and that’s why they’ve had sooooo much success? I’m so confused at what you’re trying to say.
Retain her for next year and possibly have another mediocre year because she is/can be a good manager? Or, you know she is not capable of bringing us any success now or in the future but I have to pay the buyout out of my pocket so let’s keep her at least one more year?
Maybe Beth should have gone out of her way to retain Lance. I mean, according to you Alabama has the best pitcher in the game. Man she is such a good manager.

Seriously, ask yourself, what is Beth good at? She doesn’t work with the hitters, she’s given up coaching 3rd, she needs a pitching coach, Do we want her to be a high paid Admin? It’s ok to say she should not be retained. Come on……You can do it!!

Which falls back on who? Keep doing the same thing over and over and expect different results. Keep defending. Let it shine!!

Well, the performance of the ACC in the playoffs would tell a different story. So, let it shine.

I really want to know from the ones who said how much they improved over the last part of the year, do they still believe that? Or do they now realize it was a benefit of the scheduling. I’ll say it again, anytime we play any team with a pulse we can’t compete. And please don’t say….Well we played OU good and Auburn did good in the SEC tourney and, and, and. We are a mediocre team with a mediocre coach who couldn’t win the big one when she had the studs pitching and hitting in 15/16. What a waste. Defend Beth at their own risk, their ignorance will shine through once again.

That would be a discussion to be had, but in your hypothetical, how many SEC titles? How many playoff wins? Everything I gave you was actuality and not hypothetical.
I mean what if Deifel and Baldwin and Weekly and Gajewski all make the WCWS this year and Beth doesn’t? Are they now better than Beth in your mind?
What if Ford makes the next three WCWS? Is she better than Beth in your mind?
We can go on and on like this….Lets just deal in the current facts because that’s the only certainty.
And the fact is that as of this moment, she has done nothing of note in the last 8 years and has no reason to be retained. That being said, If and that’s a huge if, they beat Bama this weekend then a discussion can be had about extending because she will have improved and I won’t have a problem with it. But shes gotta perform better than she’s been performing. If not, I have no problem with her being shown the door. And anyone who doesn’t expect at least that should be ashamed for accepting mediocrity and not demanding more.

I just argued that Deifel may not be the best example for you, no nattys, 2 SEC titles, keeper. Weekley, SEC coach of the year 4 times, 3 SEC titles 3 Tournament tiltles, keeper. Tarr, natty, 8WCWS, keeper. Gajewski, 5WCWS in 9 seasons, big 12 title over Ok, baggage…on the fence. Ford, way to early Baldwin, same, Lombardi, way to early but another regional like this….fired.
Good ole Beth, no WCWS since 2017, no SEC titles of any kind but hey, she does have 2 Sunbelt titles. I guess we can hang our hat on that.
Let’s celebrate Mediocrity at its finest and while we’re at it, let’s push our kids to get C’s in school.

You obviously care less about any titles!!

You sure Deifel is the best example? Where were the programs when each took over? Which was more relevant? I know she hasn’t made the WCWS but damn man, she’s got 2 SEC overall titles and a tournament title. Tournament title may be outdated but if you think the overall title isn’t relevant……
If we’re comparing, Mike White has only been at Texas for a few years. What has he done?

Once every 8 or 9 years would be great.
Expectation should be every 4-5 years. What about you?

What other title has she won? Did I miss one? What’s their record Against SR teams? That should be a good indicator.

It depends on who you listen to. If you listen to the ones who say we’ve improved in the later part of the season because we beat the SEC bottom dwellers, then maybe we have a shot but in reality when we play someone with a pulse we revert to the same old, same old . Pitching falls apart, cant hit etc, etc.
I thought the regional would give me more hope but watching how the ACC performed, that hope was dashed some.
Here’s to hoping I’m wrong

Make no mistake I want any LSU program to win. The problem here is Beth had a good amount of success when she first got here but that doesn’t give you the freedom of being questioned or assessment of your current success. If she makes the WCWS, we can evaluate on the success of this year.
But, she has still never won anything.
I am very angry a Jay Johnson for this year but am in no way calling for him to be replaced. He has won 2 national titles which affords the luxury of continuing to be the BB coach and if he wins one every other/3 years, i and most reasonable fans will be ok with that. Don’t make the CWS for 8 years, get bounced from your regional by an inferior in state program, the discussion will be different.
Congrats to the girls and I hope they beat Bama and even though I feel Beth has run her course, I will never wish us to lose. And just because people question the path that our teams are on does not mean that they’re loyalty to the P&G should be questioned.
