This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.

Important notes on articles:

• Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
• Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
• If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

As of now, the ACC slate could end up 8-22, or 7-23 by ndgotrobbedin97

This team does not seem to have much talent, and that is not helped by poor leadership. They don't hit much, their pitching is questionable, and they play a lot of poor defense. So, they have that going for them.

ACC teams will be licking their chops to play ND.

Aoki should be toast---of course, that's up to the arrogant master, so who knows what will actually happen after this disaster is complete in May.

I was done after the failures to win mid-week games last year, and the joke that was the home series against Ohio U. The start of this season is just an extension of that awful play, with absolutely nothing that gives you hope.

How many years do you have to watch Aoki run this program further into the ground before you try something else. The money may not be the same, but to me, this is Swarbrick's biggest failure as AD. At least he's foolishly spent money on the football program. His complete negligence of the baseball program is sinful.
