When was the last time any of us heard a recruit say they were committed to ASU because of Tracy. When was the last time we heard another program is after our baseball head "coach". The real question is how many great players have not committed to ASU because Tracy is still here.
Tracy is a complete fraud and has run our baseball program into the ground. I feel very sorry for the players and the fans of our beloved program. Tracy should have been fired after we gave up 39 runs to SC a few years ago.
Last year "may" have resulted in a trip to a regional. However, after 7 years the possibility of a trip to a regional or a super is not enough. He is a failure and if he were a man of character he would immediately hand in his resignation as a sign of respect to the program. Instead, after losing 3 games to our rival u4$ actually said, "We’re not going to make too much of this one.”
He just doesn't get it. It is not only this one, it's the last one and dozens of others before. RA needs to fire him now so he cannot do any additional damage to the players or our program.
Go Devils!
: I am OK with that. Can't be worse.
: Last season, with Tork, et. al, there was the potential to have a special season. And of course, this year, with the season ending season to the top 3 starters, ended any expectations of success.
: I hope I am wrong, but I would be surprised if ASU will finish above .500 in conference. Maybe this year's team was supposed to be a pitching dominant team. But they are struggling at the plate, and will not be able to overcome the lack of quality pitching.
: What I don't get is how AD/RA said Todd Graham had to go, because ASU should not be complacent with lower tier and mid tier bowl games, and not being in the BCS/national ranking category.
: But what we have endured with CTS is just a consistent lack of success. (I don't think ASU could afford him now, but getting Pat Murphy back would be a godsend.) I understand that college baseball programs have limited available financial resources, but in hindsight, the selection of CTS as ASU's head coach is just a head scratcher.
: His "success" prior to ASU was unremarkable, and he has brought that trend to ASU. There is no basis for anyone to say they are surprised by the lack of success for him at ASU.
: ASU should just paint "trust the process" on the tops of the dugouts, or somewhere prominent at Muni, so we can be reminded of the hubris, and failure, on a constant basis.
