ATTN: Whit Babcock....Good pool of softball coaching candidates on here..

And most, if pulled from their couch/basement/computer all seem to have the 'natural instinct' to pull their ace in favor of a freshman with control issues with runners on bottom 7 in an elimination game. I mean, if Jackson overthrows a few WRs in the 3rd quarter against FSU, naturally we will put in Patterson.

I know this is a varsity sport and i know coaches are paid for results, but for a non revenue sport and a non revenue sports board, some of these posts make me sick to my stomach.

You know Bud probably makes 10X what the softball coach makes, and has a boss to take the heat for blown coverage.

The post wishing we would lose to increase the odds of a coaching change is pitiful, and that poster should donate their O&M attire to a true Hokie.
