Since 2009 vs UF and FSU tells the story

[Tiny Dancer]

It's an issue but not a program killer. Blake James, et al., need to get out and fundraise(which is his primary resp) like Vandy did and create a slush fund to get the kids in with $$ beyond the 11.7 alloted by ncaa.

Why would we decide to do things like a program that's been a lot less successful than ours?

Vanderbilt is 7-6 in advancing out of Regionals in Tim Corbin's tenure.

About 50%.

He lost in a home Regional in 2007 as the #1 national seed......to Michigan.

When seeded into Omaha we've never failed to get there (6 for 6).

If DiMare truly cares about the program, he will leave with Morris after next year and let the program reset (JD as well).

It's this kind of stuff that really ****es me off.

Laying that at the feet of DiMare, saying that "if" he really cared he would step aside.

Not one of your goons would do the same thing but you demand it of other people. And this is a guy who played here and has coached here (successfully) for 20 years.

Ridiculous.

 

[Tiny Dancer]

It's comical how much vitriol is coming out because some of us are merely suggesting that the program has gone stale over the last decade.

it's comical how uninformed you and other detractors are on this topic.

We were winning 50 games and going to Omaha in back-to-back years and people like you were whining about how "stale" the program was 4 years before.

That's what's comical.

Your biggest mistake over the last year has been focusing on the regular season. Because, really, that's all you have. Remind us about those glorious "Coastal titles".

You can't point to a single impressive win, literally not one single impressive win, in the last nine years worth of post-season games. Davidson has two.

Since when is mentioning the CWS considered "focusing on the regular season"?

I focus on the right things. The things that actually predict success and demonstrate actual ability.

If you don't look at the right things you end up embarrassing yourself by celebrating Davidson.

 

[Tiny Dancer]

Because, really, that's all you have.

That's all every team has that doesn't win the national championship.

Don't lie and pretend that you'd be fine with 2-2 records in Omaha. You'd be whining about not reaching the championship series.

And so on.

 

[Tiny Dancer]

Remind us about those glorious "Coastal titles"

They got us two national seeds and two Omaha appearances.

I know you hate them because they mean success for the Miami program. Nobody has gloried in more losses of Miami athletic teams than you.

 

[Tiny Dancer]

You can't point to a single impressive win, literally not one single impressive win, in the last nine years worth of post-season games.

Miami has a CWS win in that time span. Two years ago in fact.

Get a better line, Jagr.

I now await your claim that the CWS win wasn't meaningful.

 

[Tiny Dancer]

Davidson has two.

3 years or so and you still make these foolish claims.

Davidson was a fluke, one-off event. They were a 4-seed which means that any one single fluke win would suffice in your scenario.

Miami had #1 seeds therefore they couldn't possibly have such a win in the Regional and had no control whatsoever on who they played after that.

So basically you're saying that none of the Regional and Super Regional games in 2015 and 2016 mattered.

Unless Miami had lost then you would have used those non-meaningful games to bash the program.

You're so transparent.

Logical fallacy. "If THIS happened, you would do THIS" isn't what we call A+ debate.

I critique what happened, period.

We beat a #2 seed? START THE PARADE.

While you always seem to skip right on past 2012. And now 2017.

No, YOU'RE so transparent. See how much that hurts?

In nine years, Miami has not beaten an equal or better seed.

But random. And tuition.

You know they're struggling to defend the post-season when the big comeback is "we won a single game in Omaha in the past nine years".

How could it be a fallacy if it's true.....and you won't deny it?

Your problem is that I know your tactics too well.

Everything does not have to be so were terrible or so great.

I think the truth is that Miami baseball is on a decline, for a lot of reasons. I think #3 is one of the reasons. I think it is time for a change. I am not overly optimistic about the coach in waiting, but am willing to give him a chance.

I do feel fortunate to have gotten to Omaha. When you are a national seed it is suppose to be an easier draw. Miami shouldn't be saying, we have to face Chris Sale in the opening game . . . what a reward for being a national seed! They should be saying we have to go play Miami, a national seed!

Since I wasn't as involved in the baseball day to days this year I don't feel as emotionally attached like you all do.

The year Fresno State won we were the number 1 seed. The team was stacked. That was a huuuuuge disappointment. Was it the year before we beat Ole Miss in Supers? That felt like over achieving!

Anyways for Miami baseball we aren't living up to the standard the wizard set. #3 has had a hall of fame career no doubt. time for a change.

 

[Tiny Dancer]

We beat a #2 seed? START THE PARADE.

This from a guy that was celebrating 2-seed Florida State and 3-seed Texas A&M getting to Omaha.

So wins over those teams would be meaningless apparently.

Jagr: Inventing new and increasingly bizarre standards ever day.

 

[Tiny Dancer]

While you always seem to skip right on past 2012. And now 2017.

And the obsession with 2012 continues.

I bet you're gleeful about 2017 because at least it gives you something recent to cling to.

We were about to play game 1 of the CWS in both 2015-16 and Jagr was writing screeds about 2012.

 

[Tiny Dancer]

In nine years, Miami has not beaten an equal or better seed.

And it means absolutely squat.

A team can win a national championship and not play an "equal or better seed" the entire time. In fact it's come close to happening at least twice.

But nobody can tell you which one because rational people don't care. It's about beating the team in front of you and advancing.

This fabricated standard that you've erected is only relevant to serial whiners like you and tcgrad.

 

[Tiny Dancer]

You know they're struggling to defend the post-season when the big comeback is "we won a single game in Omaha in the past nine years".

Not struggling at all.

You lied about them not having a meaningful win. I just corrected you.

I love people who don't follow the team but insist that we hear their uninformed opinion and that we take it seriously.

Sure, pal.

We'll do that.
