my question too, maddog07. wright state has a national caliber program across town, so it's not the weather. we've invested a lot in facilities. maybe time for a change?
starting pitching has been a chronic weakness. our pitching coach is a 2009 akron grad, ryne romick. that might help with recruiting. can we not afford someone with experience at the pro-level, even minors?
blevins, stammen and hobson drove some prosperity from 2005-2011, but we seem to be back to square one.
