We (this board) mostly agreed we'd discuss it after the season concluded... Well here we are?

I can't see any reason we'd fire him right now.

my rope on this board is very short.

I got 300 something hour ban for suggesting we need a new third base coach in a game thread during the MJ era.

Staff can't be that bad if they also dislike BQs

Serious answer

Would you come coach here if we fired RC this year? I wouldn't.

so there it is. The Childress and MJ eras have converged.

MJ with 2 trips to Omaha in his first 15 seasons.

Someone would take the job, maybe even someone that has the makings of a great coach. What I doubt we'll see is any of the names bandied about here wanting to leave their current jobs unless the money was absolutely outrageous. I simply do not see that for a sport that at best turns a slight profit.

Pulling cumulative stats from this season is going to be fun too. For example, Lacy was on pace for 146 so which would've been a career high. Do we just treat it like the whole team got injured when we look back on this?

If this doesn't sort itself out soon, I'm going to dig up super old games online and then do pbp on them here. I literally might go insane if I don't have my baseball

Old School Nintendo. RBI Baseball. I'll take Houston with both Nolan Ryan and Mike Scott as available pitchers. Come at me bro. A pure ass kicking in all its 8 bit glory. Ryan had a 101 mph heater... til he got tired.

That's probably what we should do. Every Tuesday, Friday, and Saturday, someone should bump a play-by-play thread from a past game (a win, needless to say). Or, you could recreate it in real time, if you are really bored.

Those of us of a certain age can remember a major league baseball strike in 1981, and how the media tried to fill the void. WFAA in Dallas had a reporter named Gerry Oher who used to do imaginary game reports, complete with illustrations.

I think his contract has one more year left on it.....thru the '21 season. With no extension and therefore being a lame duck coach, it doesn't bode very well on the recruiting front.

Going to be interesting to see what happens in regards to recruiting, as I guess most players will not have to forfeit a year of eligibility. However, guessing Deloach is gone, and looks like the pitching staff could get decimated if Lacy, Roa, Miller, and even Joz go pro.

Even though I'm sure it's not something Bjork wants to do, I think a 1 year extension probably makes sense. Otherwise, that's death on the recruiting trail. If he's not going to extend him, then he needs to cut him loose. While I think he was prepared to do that if we didn't produce this season, it would be really strange to cut him loose now.

Probably much fewer coaches will be fired this year- making it a better year than normal to recruit a new coach.

another guy that got super lucky was the Rice coach.

the Owls media guide may not even recognize the 2020 season.

2-14 looks very, very bad in the history books
