Poor baseball. And, there are like 18 more games left in the season.

Austen Peay just fired their coach. UNA plays them at AP tomorrow night. Press release mentions wanting to make the move before getting to the ASUN next year. AP is ahead of UNA in baseball facilities. Video board, clubhouse, indoor baseball facility. Will be interesting to see who they hire. letsgopeay.com/news/2022/4/25/govs-to-make-baseball-coaching-change.aspx

UNA lags horribly in both of those stats. Their hire will be very interesting.

They should hire Keehn…they beat us without a coach. Which sort of made it equal footing I guess….

Lions host JSU for a series this weekend starting today. They've been promoting it a lot on social media.

Only got beat by 5 runs in game one…we are a model of consistency. I hope the new coaching staff has a mantra like Suck Less, or something else very motivational…..

Baseball Conference stats = Worst ERA/Worst Batting Average/Worst HR hit/Worst HR allowed = 9 wins and 31 losses. Nowhere to go but up if a kid wanted to use UNA as a HC job stepping stone. Small ball is a thing of the past. You can't win in today's modern era stealing bases and bunting guys over....especially when you give up 9 runs a game. 9th worst ERA in all of D1 baseball (293 teams), 246th in BA, 271 in HR hit.

Headline reads UNA comeback fell short….then I read we lost by 9 runs. We were definitely short…we got doubled on the scoreboard….soooo close. I am not so sure Cozart could coach both teams….bet she would have a better record.

I am not so sure Cozart could coach both teams….bet she would have a better record. And that’s the thing, we can’t really get any worse. If Josh doesn’t want to come home (well he already lives in Florence, but work with me), I’d probably still take almost any D1 level assistant coach, D2 head coach, heck even a local high school head coach, whoever wants the job. Nothing tells me the current staff can turn this around. I bet most of us here would chip in a few bucks at this point, if there’s some sort of buyout standing in the way. Hopefully we’re just waiting until the end of the season to officially cut ties.

I watched the whole game. This might be the worst defensive team I’ve ever seen. They are 50-50 to make routine catches in the outfield or field ground balls. Honestly, I feel for the kids, they’re giving their best to UNA. These coaches have had four years through the transition to build something that is at least competitive with A&M. The last 2 years are arguably worse than that first D1 team. Every day Looney lets them continue to represent UNA is another day too many.

This is flat out embarrassing. This will take a few years for the program to recover from this.

This staff has failed miserably at the task of building through the transition. It’s crazy to watch a team in year 4 struggle to catch routine fly balls, or field ground balls to 3rd base. Not to mention only scoring 2 runs against Alabama A&M. If Kheen had any sense of gratitude towards UNA he would’ve announced his retirement weeks ago, rather than make Looney fire him.
