Do the words "I told ya'll so" mean anything?! I put a post up last year a week after the TCU Super Regional fiasco saying that we needed to get rid of Childress then and get David Pierce (who was at Tulane at the time) before a school 90 miles West of College Station would snatch him up. He is a great coach (as seen at Sam Houston State and Tulane) and would turn us around and get us over the hump! I also said in the post that we were going to suck this year and, probably, next year too. But,instead, 55% of the 348 replys (that was as of July 15, 2016) said Childress was doing great and was rewarded and contract extension and another raise.
So this is what a contract extension and raise gets us! An 0-5 (about to be 0-9) conference record do to our excellent pitching (Childress is supposed to be a great pitching coach right?!), great and timely hitting, great defense, and great recruiting (seeing that 2-4 recruits jump ship for the $ in major/minor league baseball meaning that we could've signed good ball-players that would want to come to A&M and college but instead turns into a wasted scholarship)!
Guess we should give Childress another extension and raise after this year! Wait! Why not give it to him now!!!
It is amazing that Mark Johnson only had one losing season in his ENTIRE career and was fired (by $Bill which I was never a fan of) for not getting to the next level (even though the NCAA Tournament until 2000 only took 48 teams) and yet Childress and Aggie fans are now just happy getting to the regionals (which isn't going to happen this year!)?! Please! I know some Aggie fans had posted that Childress has made 10 straight regionals so we are supposed to just accept that?! I don't. Should've kept Johnson.
Otherwise can this entire season be a complete rain-out!!
