I actually kinda like this strategy. Don’t let him leave with a near .500 record. Let his record reflect the actual coach he was for us

You can also see the potential for more with his improved approach. I’m excited to see how he is next year with a full offseason of this staff that actually believes in him as a hitter

I’d be fully on board with that kind of roster reset tbh. Just to feel like we’re moving forward

I agree wholeheartedly they go beyond him. I think we’re trying to do Alabama things without Alabama NIL money. My hope is we get someone who understands and accepts the limitations we have and try to build with that in mind. I.E. what Illinois or Indiana or what Wisconsin used to do

Because my biggest fear is that Fickells best team was with Paul Chryst’s recruits

Honest question: what do you see as best case scenario over the next 2-3 years?

I’m not against your arguments or anything I’m actually curious from someone who isn’t on the fire fickell train of how he could potentially turn it around
September 20, 2025 at 6:15 PM
I don’t disagree, but to take until year 3 to start with that, while we haven’t really seen this progress with his recruits from the first few years. Idk, it just feels directionless

If he were recruiting and developing guys and the team was young and hungry, but just not ready that’s one thing. Our team is old, untalented and undisciplined
September 20, 2025 at 5:47 PM
But that’s what I’m saying. The goal isn’t to develop his guys and deal with the growing pains. His goal seems to be exclusively starting people through the portal. And I know that’s more and more common in today’s NCAA but watching entire position groups get wiped out yoy isn’t building something
September 20, 2025 at 5:46 PM
Also if we look like we’re decently coached. I’m so tired of being both untalented and poorly coached
September 20, 2025 at 5:42 PM
Tbh I’m fully onboard with a gut job and a rebuild as long as we’re building towards something. Like a clear identity and a goal. With the current regime it seems like their strategy is restructure the entire roster every single year through the portal and hope this times the charm

Think it’s long overdue, very excited to see it (once mlb.tv lets me)
