Actually, SC has not been to a regional since the 2005 season. So, it's 5 seasons in a row. And, no regional berth in 7 of the last 8 years. Can you imagine if SC had not been to a bowl game in 7 of the last 8 years? LSU, Texas, Miami, Fullerton, ASU would never allow their baseball programs to sink to this level and neither should we. This is not a one year aberration, the downward momentum is very strong, but I feel the fix is in and we are stuck with Kreuter. There are no valid reasons to bring back Kreuter for another season.
That is right five years not six. They made the Super Regional in 2005. Come on Wolf get your facts straight at least even though it doesn't change the results for Kreuter who has gone nowhere in his four years at the helm of Trojan baseball. Six of the last seven years have been .500 or less overall. Next season a solid nucleus is back led by Ricky Oropesa so a new coach could make a big difference in turning the program around immediately.
Chad was the wrong choice even though the AD was "forced" to by the previous father in law. Fact: last four years were 111-116. Previous four years before Chad? 118-115. Yuck. Both should be (and one was) let go.
