[QUOTE="CINCYMETJACKET, post: 873918, member: 4003"] I disagree with Danny not building a program after inheriting Jim's team. Yes, Danny lost in the championship game with Morris's players in 1994 (but he coached them there, and if it had been best 2/3 like it is today, I like our chances to win that one!). The core of that team left for pro ball after that. I must admit at this point, that I got to Tech as a graduate student in fall 1995, so didn't see any of the 1994 or 1995 season. Results after the 1994 CWS season: 1995-1998 lost in regionals. 1999 didn't make the NCAA's with a 38-20 record (that decision by the NCAA surprised me, but what do I know???). There was also a change during this period (I believe it was 1999) from 48 teams in the NCAA tournament with 8, 6 team regionals to 64 teams and 16, 4 team regionals. 2000 through 2006: 2000 lost in Super Regional, 2001 Lost in Regional, 2002 Lost in CWS, 2003 lost in Regional, 2004 lost in Super Regional, 2005 lost in Super Regional, 2006 lost in CWS. Our win totals in those years: 50, 41, 52, 44, 44, 45, 50. Some years we had injuries. Some years, the ball didn't bounce our way. But I don't understand how you can say that Danny Hall "hasn't built squat" when looking at those records and where we ended our seasons (Regional 2, Super Regional 3, CWS 2, which is double the number of CWS we had been to "prior to Danny" if you give Jim Morris credit for the one in 1994 and not Hall). If you give credit to Hall for the 1994 CWS, since he was the coach, he's guided us to all of our CWS appearances. College baseball has changed as well. Back in 2000 through 2006, we had players on our bench that could have started for other ACC or SEC programs. Today, since college baseball has become an ESPN darling, those kids are probably going to Mercer, Georgia State, Georgia Southern, Kennesaw State, etc. It's a different game today than it was 10 to 20 years ago. Great for College Baseball. Not so great for GT making a deep run into the post-season every year... [/QUOTE]
