[Husker] The State of Husker Baseball (Warning: REALLY LONG)

[j j]

So Jon what should the athletic department be doing that they are not? I think the baseball team just got a new stadium, the weight facilities are top notch, I am sure they get the same academic help that the other programs get, are we not offering enough scholarships? Does NU not offer its NCAA scholarship limit? What praytell should they be doing that they are not?

The very idea that Mike Anderson's job is under consideration is ludicrous.

The guy does things right. He protects his players and at the same time
punishes them when they do stupid things, he gets more out of baseball players
in a program that won't attract them very much. The athletic department
could support him more than they do to assist in that effort, but their
priorities are somewhere else.

Old legendary coaches like Augie don't get there because they're fired
after a crappy season.

Methinks a lot of this talk is to generate more talk.
