Agree, I think I led to that shorthand as he is the most visible but we know there are more. Keeping them mostly happy in transition is key though and they may all rely on Tex to lead things for all I know (since he is most visible).

The only thing I don't agree with is the sinking to levels of joining the ACC but overall yes. Especially the bolded but I can't imagine even Hall wants to work out a 5 year plan.

I don't know but it's possible. I would think Batt and other alumni could massage this though. The key would be not to make it ugly but even for CDH it doesn't make sense to have an ugly breakup.

That wasn't my point but see above.

I totally agree but we as a fanbase tend to be more risk-averse than most (probably has something to do with the engineering side but I don't know), which is why I think that might play into the hesitation to switch. That's pure speculation on my part though. The key to a change is keeping Tex...

I don't feel good about the UNCheat matchup but they didn't see Schmolke did they? So maybe that is helpful if he comes out strong. 3pm is better than the 7pm slot in terms of crowd so there's that.

In the spirit of my other response - I changed my vote to align closer to how I feel.

@LargeFO, I have not seen anyone say 'it's too risky' but what I have seen is people saying 'be careful what you wish for' which is fine. I think (to be honest) the Collins experiment is largely the feeling behind that, none of us would want to see our baseball program ruined the way football...

OK, this is a fair take but there is some nuance to it as well. The first or second post after states something to the effect of 'I'm in between 1 and 2'. Also think of the timing of the poll (even though you can change your answer I'm sure not many have), as the season has gone on and we...

Here's the thing that irks me... I take offense to people coming on here posting as if almost all of us are saying things are great. I don't post a ton but I read every baseball thread and I've seen things like 'a change doesn't mean better' or whatever but I haven't seen anyone adamant that...

Hiring Borrell seemed like a sure thing.... but obviously wasn't.

The one we can beat!

Totally agree with you. Those losses do have an effect but the bigger problem is our ACC record. If we had a different team this weekend then it would be a bigger problem but as @GTNavyNuke pointed out we can seriously improve our RPI just by winning (not likely to sweep but we can dream). If we...

Same... but just hoping we come out hot Thursday.

Chat someone mentioned he grabbed his hammy. Hopefully a precautionary removal from the lineup and not a re-injury.

@FredJacket - you know what you have to do. Start the Hoo thread and no poll!!!

Let's hope the guys are still just taking it one game at a time, but we're getting hot at the right time for sure. As fans we can dream of finishing out strong and getting that NCAA bid.

Maybe 4 (and if we get in to the ACC tourney) a couple more there to put us above .500 Still a long shot at this point. Sweeping Pitt would've done a lot.

So we climb back into the ACC tourney and put a little distance over Louisville, which is good considering they finish with FSU at home. I never would have expected FSU to be in the cellar TBH. Pitt has Miami at home and finishes at NC State. We've got to find at least 3 wins over these last two...

Clearly, esp with hindsight, it should have been done. Even in the 'moment' it had merit based on results. Sometimes the resume just doesn't pan out the way you think it will (see Groh, Al). Regardless of what happens with CDH, I expect Borrell to be given his walking papers this offseason...
