[Husker] Check

[j j]

I think idiotic is a pretty strong word. Maybe for the football team, but baseball? I only hear that the fans want a winning program that makes it to the NCAA tourney and then makes a good showing. It would be nice to make the CWS every year but I dont think it is expected. I really dont see a lot of post or news articles saying that NU should win the CWS every year. I dont think it in idiotic to want a winning team every year, a team that competes with the best programs in the nation year in and year out, a team that makes a run at the CWS every year. Why is that idiotic.

Bingham. Bingham has a ton of experience, so Anderson kept him around,  
moving him to an assistant coaching position as Andy Sawyer left the  
program and was fortunate enough to find Eric Newman.

Not sure about Newman's temperament. Perhaps the idea that I haven't  
heard about a fiery nature is that he isn't, but don't take that as  
anything more than a grain of salt.

There seems to be a fair number of people looking at the baseball  
program this year as if Mike Anderson has to prove he's worth of being  
a head coach. I find that concept pretty silly. I think Anderson's a  
pretty good coach, but Nebraskans expectations for this program are  
idiotic.
