Congrats to UCI.
Fullerton finally outlasted UCLA tonight to set up the
showdown tomorrow night. The winner advances to take on the Pepperdine-Stanford winner in the Supers.
What's with UCLA's laboriously slow defensive game in baseball. Seems like Bruin ocach John Savage goes through an elaborate series of signs to call every single pitch. Just for a fastball away it takes 2 minutes to call?
I figured since Mr. Wolf won't let it go I'll repost my earlier research on Coach Gillespie's last four years at SC and ask the question what was the athletic dept. supposed to do? The slide into mediocrity is on Gillespie's watch.
Gillespie's last four seasons were 28-28 (11-13), 24-32 (11-13), 41-22 (15-9) eliminated by NC Oregon St. in the super regional, and 25-33 (11-13).
That's two losing seasons (three in the Pac 10), one .500 season and one playoff appearance. If Scott had this blog back then he's be calling for Gillespie's head.
and Gillespie has taken a team with less talent from last year's CWS team to the Super Regional....
maybe you can do more research Bruce so you can understand why you have no clue about college baseball....
