Sorry guys, but it is time for Augie to "Retire". Whether it is the players or coaches who aren't performing doesn't matter. The Head Coach has the responsibility for on-field performance. Period. End of Story. This is not a lowly paid high school coach who has got to produce with the kids in the school. Augie is being paid a million dollars to win championships with players he / staff RECRUIT and Develop. He ain't getting it done. My opinion is this is the most baseball fundamentally flawed UT baseball team I have ever seen. And, I have seen a lot of UT baseball. Yep, Augie is entitled to accolades and The Hall of Fame, but it is time for him to go.... actually, he should have "Retired" several years ago.
For us old guys, UT baseball has been the pinnacle of UT athletic success. Not anymore. Baseball performance has declined more than basketball did when Barnes got canned and probably further than football when Mack was fired. Most of you guys are too young to remember the Coach Gus years when I think UT hosted something like 17-18 consecutive Regionals. Now even playing in a Regional is becoming a distant memory. Sad...very Sad.
