Beavs Get Snubbed

127

Was this payback at the pac-12 for bombing in the basketball tournament?

Beavs weren’t good all year and had a shaky rotation, so in a way it’s fair, but with a strong finish/sorting out the rotation, at least give them a tough draw somewhere.

Casey being slow to make obvious and necessary changes was the difference.

Game times are 4, 4, and 11

Go Beavs!

Oregon State @ USC

Thread going up a day early and can act as a general thread as well.

Seems like a lot of fans have bailed on this team (understandable, it’s painful baseball), but it’s still possible they get into the post-season despite how bad they are, and anything can happen then.

Game times are 7, 1, and 12.

Oregon @ Oregon State Baseball

253

7:30, 7, and 3 starts.

First two games are on ESPNU, and the final game is on Pac-12. Gut says they take 2 of 3, but with the pitching so shaky I’m not confident in that.

Go Beavs.

Assessing Gary Andersen

202

I’d like to hear thoughts based on this assessment of a coach, which I thought was pretty fair.

My grades, based off what I have seen so far.

Vision: B
Leadership: B- (Issues with moving coaches, assigning co-coordinators, losing coaches, moving players, etc).
Technical Ability: C+ (he knows little about offense, for example, and doesn’t seem to want to learn)
Passion: A
High Performance: A-
Communication: A
Teaching Ability: B-
Identify and Recruit Talent: B

Let’s hear your grades.

We’re almost a year and a half into this change. Curious to hear if people are getting antsy. There’s a lot of rumbling that something is rotten in the State of Denmark, but nobody ever elaborates. I do feel a weird aura with this staff, but I can’t pinpoint a single issue that’s major cause for concern.
