[QUOTE="MWBATL, post: 153083, member: 944"] Interesting. And I very much appreciate the thoughts and insights in these posts. The one thing that does confuse me however is why some other fairly good colleges (Virginia comes to mind immediately) have the same academic restrictions (or at least, I think they do) and less other attributes (no program history prior to the current coach and poor weather)...yet they have had stellar pitching for the last few years under the current coaching regime. It does suggest that coaching (whether via recruiting or instruction once on campus) may be a heavy factor....or am I missing something? UNC has had great pitching, but for all we know their baseball players may be following gin the footsteps of their basketball and football programs, and therefore have fewer academic issues. We all know FSU, Miami, Louisville and Clemson have fewer academic restrictions, so their success makes sense under this theory. There may be a lot to what [USER=443]@awbuzz[/USER] has said........it would also help explain why Morris left GT for Miami (did he see handwriting on the wall?) If all this is true, it may mean our golden era is over and we may have to adjust our expectations. In other words, we may be Duke. I still don't understand why UVa can succeed when we cannot though.... [/QUOTE]
