I'll take 3-0 or 2-1 vs. Purdue, but we cannot let them take the series if we want to stay in the hunt for the conference title and a good seed in the tournament.FANnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7363837069141383760.post-42911907645789836842010-04-29T21:21:54.625-04:002010-04-29T21:21:54.625-04:00I think if he was shopping himself around, he woul...I think if he was shopping himself around, he would have left after last year. IU was a hot tourney name and produced a LOT of draft picks. That was the year to go if he wanted to go or if anyone wanted him. I do agree that the lineup changes create pressure, but kids need to handle the pressure. Being up in the 9th inning down by 1 with bases loaded and 2 outs is pressure.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7363837069141383760.post-24235275412374480442010-04-29T20:48:57.504-04:002010-04-29T20:48:57.504-04:00your skipper has never shopped himself around. ug...your skipper has never shopped himself around. ugly rumor.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7363837069141383760.post-77296459605667624792010-04-29T19:34:19.654-04:002010-04-29T19:34:19.654-04:00This program has made such great strides under Tra...This program has made such great strides under Tracy Smith but the one thing that has plagued them is inconsistency. Inconsistency in a group, whether it be a team or a business, usually starts at the top and that may be the problem here. Too much lineup and pitching staff maneuvering often puts unneeded pressure on the kids to perform. Something else that upsets me is that I have heard that our skipper has been shopping himself around for other jobs over the last couple of years. If he truly wants to build something here he needs to put an end to that.
