CWS Elimination Game Texas v. UNC

Most of these guys did not hit well from the start of the season on. Check the stats. We really only had 3 hitters and that is because of bad recruiting or bad coaching. This is a recurring problem and will not get better unless there is a change in how our recruiting is done or we hire a real hitting coach or both.
 
Blame game is useless! Texas baseball team showed the team consistent weakness and came up short as has been the story all season. Why is anyone surprised? Omaha does not cure team weakness. However, the Horns are on their way home as should be expected based on their dismal performance.
 
This is not one of Augie's better teams. The fact that they made it to Omaha is satisfaction for me. Hey, sometimes the other guy is better.
 
I'm trying to decide what's worse, being knocked out before Omaha or 2 and BBQ. Today I lean towards the latter, with it made worse by the fact that we're the first team to go home. Major suckage

my sentiments exactly - my only complaint is, as i posted before, the lack of attention paid to the offensive recruiting the last couple of years - our pitching didn't let us down - we still have some good pitching coming back - but harmon has got to get better hitters - it's always good to make it to omaha even if we don't like the results
 
Augie is the bob knight of baseball

What I mean is he is and always will be one of if not the greatest ever at what he does. They each play the game their way and they can make any team a winning team, regardless of talent, but they are always the most successful when they have the best talent suited for their roles on the team. Neither coach will alter their style of play to fit the talent neccessarilly. The pegs don't always fit the holes.
 
According to the post-game overheard at the stadium, the number is 4 for us to go 2 'n' Q. Like some others mentioned, it was unexpected that our crew would get there. It's tough that we weren't a bit more competitive, but I for one am proud of the fact that they made it to the Arena for the Inaugural Season.

Thanks Team!
 
You cannot win it all if you are not in the tournament. The performance in the NC game was very disappointing, but the team over achieved all year long.
