No SEC tournament for the second straight year. Usually “elite” programs build off a national championship.
It’s official
- Thread starter curseddawgs
- Start date
Unacceptable for this program to not even make Hoover in any season much less two in a row. Completely unacceptable. We are just going to delay the inevitable.
You sound spoiled **
Fat boy should be toast but we don't have the balls. Portal opens in a couple weeks. That door is going to be a revolving one.
What am I going to watch in my pool now? One of my favorite things to do in May and June is float my fat *** in the pool, drink beer, and watch postseason Bulldog baseball.
ETA: 17 OM too. I can't hate-watch them and root for them to lose either.

Let’s find some pitching. I think we’re in decent shape otherwise.
Line up should be solid next year with Marshon, Highfield, Dakota & Hines. Chance as well. Not sure Alford will be here next year.

We need to find some coaching first.
Our lineup is 10th in the SEC in hitting. We have no ace. Pen is horrible. There's no possible way to sign everything we need in the portal. And we're going to lose a couple players too.
I hear you. But, the talent among those young position players is hard to deny. Lo, Holcombe and Siery should be major contributors next year on the mound too.
Either way, I don’t think the Athletic Department made any attempt to raise funds to fire the staff. I don’t think there were any serious conversations about a coaching change this offseason.
Don’t think I’ve ever heard $5 million used synonymously with “balls” before….but here we are breaking new ground on SPS every day.
Siary? He's not an SEC guy. He's midweek at best. Holcombe struggled. Lo isn't coming back from the rumors. Just no way to fix all this in one portal class. We failed to last year already. Lemonis and this staff sucks at evaluation and development.
So should we put you in the “totally fine w 2 consecutive, non-competitive seasons” column?
The talent amongst those guys?
Lo, Siery, Holcombe have a combined ERA this season over 7, they have a combined ERA in the SEC over 11.
The young position players are role guys. Mershon needs to play 2b. Jordan is the ONLY impact freshman we have in our lineup and he’s not as good as other freshman in the conference (Feel free to look around).
Just because they play, and they are better than our older players dont mean they are impact type guys.
Can’t call it anything other than a failure of a season. Fairly or not, he’s probably going to get 2024 to fix it. But his seat is beyond toasty.
Doubt Lo leaves. His main squeeze plays on the softball team. He aint leaving that tail behind LOL
I'm guessing we lost. It must've been a great pitching battle, with some fine fielding displayed by our team.
The last time I cared so little about our baseball team was so long ago I can't remember. I think I was still living in Mississippi. I didn't bother listening to the game or keeping up with what happened because I was pretty confident about what would happen. It was too late anyway.
I'm done talking about baseball till we get rid of the coaching staff. I'm sure they won't miss me, but I'm sure I won't be the only one.

I feel your pain. This and last season were the most embarrassing years I can remember as a State fan. Win an NC then this?
I don't see how Lemonis can keep his job after leading the league in ERA and fielding. I could understand keeping him if one of those stats were middle of the pack. Of course, if that were the case we would be playing at Hoover and possibly in the NCAA.
How did he get us there in the beginning + a 50 win season and CWS trip his very first season here? Was what he inherited THAT much better than what he recruited?
Damn it's hard to wrap my brain around just how Lemonis let things get away from him.
If we bring Lemonis back, we’re giving up the pretense that Mississippi State is an elite program. Elite programs cut bait and go get a big time coach (see LSU & USC football). If your plan involves hoping Lemonis turns it around, you have no plan.
It’s not hard. He just isn’t cut out to build a program. He and the staff are lazy. And they cant evaluate or develop.
if all it took was finding a player or 2 to drop in the lineup he would be fine.
Bart and Charlie touched on this in their pod. If Cade goes pro we have zero established SEC starting pitchers. Good luck with that.
