Well put!! Describes OSU baseball under Josh and Walton perfectly.

- Thread starter Chairman of the Board
- Start date
Exactly. No harm to just let it drop.

Talk about just rolling over. My goodness this team needs to toughen up. Just weak sauce.
Did anyone not discuss that the play was at home with a one run lead and a runner on third?!
The Cowboys didn’t deserve to win.
I wonder if Josh is worried about the win loss record yet? I believe we are beyond the “first three weeks” he mentioned at the beginning of the year.

Let me summarize. Blah, Blah, just bad luck, blah, blah, injuries, blah, blah, blah.

"A lot of mistakes that will keep me from having any peace of mind."
Mentioned Bade not going home
"I hope this will be a motivator that we bring into Friday."
"Did a lot of good things, but it's not enough just to play hard."
Mentioned getting one more good AB to keep innings going
Plan was to use veteran arms until it went to extras and had to go to young arms

Notice that DBU hit more HRs AND can execute in key spots, you CAN do both.
Which is why this tiny little school has a better baseball program than we do

Last 13 years, but yes.
If it worked, I'd be thrilled with it.
Evidence shows it doesn't.
But when his ego is more important than postseason success, there's a problem.

Here is some very poor audio of Josh answering a question about the last play. Josh is defensive and “isn’t going to question the kid” in the heat of the moment. Might want to use that as a coaching opportunity.
I get a coach defending their players, but I sure miss the days of coaches being open and honest about their teams’ play.

College baseball misses guys like Augie Garrido. Sure he was an a-hole, but he demanded excellence.

It’s more so the inability to make a couple of routine plays than it was the guys on the mound for sure.
Coaching "in the moment" or "real-time" will have FAR more impact than waiting for the appropriate time. Who decides when is the right time? When, exactly, would be the right time in Josh's mind? Agree with the comment about Augie. He would have met the player before he got to the top step.
Clearly Josh doesn't want to be challenged here and comes off as a *ick.

That "above it all" attitude didn't work very well for the football coach.

The glaring absence on this team is a Brendan McCurry quality closer. So many games starting with the first game with Clemson and then this last game with DBU where we have a lead and all we need to do is protect it for an inning. With McCurry, if you got to the eighth inning with a one run lead, it was pretty much ball game over. We don’t have anyone like that who can automatically shut other teams down for an inning or two as a closer . Hence, we can’t protect leads!
