Morehead another team that came to swipe a victory and run. They were literally on the doorstep of doing it too
This team also shows immense grit and plays every inning - no giving up.
I can't quite remember a rally like the one I saw yesterday with 2 outs in the 9th.

Hartman and Biven have been MIA for the most part.
Certainly 2 guys that are being depended on to anchor the pen,they need to get it going before April. I'll give Hartman a pass because I know he's coming off an injury.
Love Brown and I love what I've seen from the 3 weekend starters.

I am not convinced the pitching staff is poor. Forbes is excellent. His defense let him down the other day. Detmers and Michael have displayed enough talent to have us competitive on the weekends. The pen…yes, sort of confusing - again. Williams just isn’t going anywhere until Dan retires - which could be the issue. Wyatt has been very good; Eberle and Brown have been good. Others have certainly been hit and miss. Hartman and Biven have been MIA for the most part. But, it is early. There appear to be some good young arms. I’d say, let the cake bake a bit before declaring this team ‘average’. They have hitters up and down the lineup and depth on the bench. This team also shows immense grit and plays every inning - no giving up.

Mack had an impossible job replacing Pitino during a time of chaos in our university. He had to that and be the coach during COVID. It was never going to work.

Also, the portal and NIL weren’t really as big a thing until he was out the door. A lot of pressure and it just wasn’t the right time.

But his 2nd year he had us back. Honestly, his recruiting wasn’t terrible either. That last year he knew he was leaving, pushed to make staff changes and work for a President that basically didn’t want him.

He’ll get another decent job and he’ll do great I believe.

It was an impossible situation for pretty much anyone except Rick Pitino, and we couldn't hire him b/c we just fired him. LOL.

Pitching hasn't sniffed what it was during the good times. No Brendan Mckay or Bobby Miller or Reid Detmers plus a plethora of others arms that had the Cards in the top 10 annually.

Don't know exactly who or what is the blame. Probably a bit of everything, but if Coach Mac doesn't find that level of hurlers again, the program will not repeat the glory days.
