Two yrs in a row not making the big dance by this great
Coach is unacceptable to most … but a few will blame it on a field . This program is in a bad way.

We haven't had strong pitching consistently under Avent. Rodon era and 2021. That's pretty much it. It's really never been a strength. Of course our last pitching coach won a natty 2 years ago lol

One more at bat and it is a tough hill to climb at this point. Getting swept by UNC two years in a row is a tough pill to swallow. .


If it will make anyone feel better, we won one game (game 2) in the series last year.

Yep. My mistake. State is one 1 out of 7 over the past two years against UNC and have lost five straight games against them.

Between the end of 3rd and the top of the 4th, the umpires checked UNC starter Knapp for foreign substances on his glove and hat. UNC coach Forbes walked to the mound to complain and then smiled at the NCSU dugout as he returned to his dugout.


Like I said. Clueless! You don't ask for this check when getting ass handed to you for the 3rd day in a row without 100% knowing there was a foreign substance there. Really bush league stuff for sure.

Mother's Day weekend and the neighborhood pool opening picked the perfect weekend causing me to miss most of the last two games. Eww.

I love you Cle put you're off your rocker on this one. Brett Black, Clay Eason, Kurt Blackmon, Chris Combs, Bubba Scarce during the early Avent years.

Michael Rogers, Vern Sterry, Joey Devine and a few other quality arms on those '03 and '04 teams.

Andrew Brackman, Gib Hobson, Jason Duncan, etc

Eric Surkamp, Eryk McConnell, Sam Walls, James Gillheeny, Alex Sogard, Joey Cutler

Jake Buchanan, Cory Mazzoni, Grant Sasser, Rob Chamra

You already mentioned Carlos, but there was also John Easley, Ryan Wilkins, Andrew Woeck, Chris Overman

Brian Brown, Joe O'Donnell, Will Gilbert

Nick Swiney, Villaman, Evan Justice, Sam Highfill

Nick Swiney was about to have a season for the record books in 2020 if not for stupid covid. Kid was unhittable.

Not sure how old you are but your memory isn't very good if you have any age to ya.

Foxhall just got fired from Miss State a couple weeks ago.

In hindsight we really bungled the transfer portal. Didn't get enough pitching to cover the loss of villaman or highfill's injury. Trice and Parker Nolan should be playing in my opinion.

I agree with Nolan but what does Trice give you that says he needs to play? He's not much of a defender. He's a lot of swing and miss (unless he's playing ECU haha). Why does he need to play over Will Marcy?

Noah Soles has been brutal in the field since coming back and I know he's gutting it out but dang. He just can't run right now.

Same story in baseball as the other sports...if you want to be successful in the transfer portal then start giving money to an NIL collective. And build that pitching lab ASAP.

Swiney was amazing. Forgot about him. Hell, I had forgotten about a lot of names on this list.
Couple of my favs that don't get enough credit - Will Gilbert, O donnel, Brian brown was a beast.

Lot of good/great names on this list, but not much to show for it as I'm assuming most of these names were spread out over various teams.

Good on Miss State for pushing the envelope and not settling.

Move those goalposts ha

You said we didn't have strong pitching, I provided names that refuted that statement. Those names won a lot of ball games. I mean sht dude, Rogers and Sterry won 11 games the same year, IIRC. Joey Devine was almost unhittable as a FR closer in '03. Those three were FILTHY.

Of course they were spread out over various teams, that's how time works. haha

Lemonis is just trying to save his own ass by getting rid of Scott. But sure, let's call it "pushing the envelope". haha

I'm not moving any goalposts. I'm not arguing anything. I'm just saying that we very rarely have consistent pitching/depth in order to compete for ACC title/supers and when we do we've done pretty well, but those instances are few and far between. You'd think in 25 years we've had lucked into one ACC title.

Hell, at least the Miss State guy is doing something. Can't improve if you keep trying to do the same thing over and over. Have to make a change somewhere, no? I'm also assuming that CWS has bought him a lot of good will, lol

He better be doing something as he's looking more like the baseball equivalent of Gene Chizik. haha

A combined 15-40 conference record over the last two years so far ain't gonna cut it. How did you put it, "That CWS (championship) feels like a lifetime ago." lol

We're not even close to the same situation as Lemonis and Miss State.

You'd think in 25 years we've had lucked into one ACC title.
Pretzel logic as usual and a bit incorrect. But of course, yes, you'd think when you make the ACC championship game every 3.8 years odds are we'd win one. But guess what, if we're making the ACC title game essentially every 4 years that means we have in fact had the pitching to compete for ACC titles b/c Avent has done it 7 times over his tenure. We all wish he'd win one, like, no sht dude. haha

You really think we don't compete for ACC titles? I'll spell it out

Since 1997 when Elliott took over we've played in 7 title games as mentioned above. Only one other school has made more appearances in the ACC title game than us over that time period and that's FSU with legend Mike Martin Sr. with 11.

ACC title game appearances since 1997
FSU - 11 (won 7, all with Mike Martin Sr)
Ga Tech - 7 (won 5 all with Danny Hall)
NC State - 7 (zero wins)
Clemson - 6 (2 wins all with Jack Leggett)
unc - 5 (4 wins. 3 with Fox and 1 with Forbes)
Wake - 4 (3 wins all with George Greer in 98,99 and 01. Probably gets another this year)
UVA - 4 (2 wins all with Brian O'Conner)
Miami - 2 (1 and that was with legend Jim Morris who also won a bunch at Ga Tech before the MIA gig)
duke - 1 (1 win)
Va Tech - 1 (zero wins)
Maryland - 1 (zero wins)
Louisville - 1 (zero wins)

Looks like we are competing like hell for ACC titles, gotta have pitching to do that.

Go ahead, move the goal posts again, make something else up. All good.

There's a lot of sht you can say about Avent but not competing for ACC titles b/c of pitching isn't one.

Louisville - 1 (zero wins)

Looks like we are competing like hell for ACC titles, gotta have pitching to do that.

Go ahead, move the goal posts again, make something else up. All good.

There's a lot of sht you can say about Avent but not competing for ACC titles b/c of pitching isn't one.






You're cherry-picking the tournament though. How has state done in regular season compared to the competition during avent's tenure? How many teams other than state have won the regular season or tourney other than state?

I love you Cle put you're off your rocker on this one. Brett Black, Clay Eason, Kurt Blackmon, Chris Combs, Bubba Scarce during the early Avent years.

Michael Rogers, Vern Sterry, Joey Devine and a few other quality arms on those '03 and '04 teams.

Andrew Brackman, Gib Hobson, Jason Duncan, etc

Eric Surkamp, Eryk McConnell, Sam Walls, James Gillheeny, Alex Sogard, Joey Cutler

Jake Buchanan, Cory Mazzoni, Grant Sasser, Rob Chamra

You already mentioned Carlos, but there was also John Easley, Ryan Wilkins, Andrew Woeck, Chris Overman

Brian Brown, Joe O'Donnell, Will Gilbert

Nick Swiney, Villaman, Evan Justice, Sam Highfill

Nick Swiney was about to have a season for the record books in 2020 if not for stupid covid. Kid was unhittable.

Not sure how old you are but your memory isn't very good if you have any age to ya.

Foxhall just got fired from Miss State a couple weeks ago.




Swiney was amazing. Forgot about him. Hell, I had forgotten about a lot of names on this list.
Couple of my favs that don't get enough credit - Will Gilbert, O donnel, Brian brown was a beast.

Lot of good/great names on this list, but not much to show for it as I'm assuming most of these names were spread out over various teams.

Good on Miss State for pushing the envelope and not settling.


Move those goalposts ha

You said we didn't have strong pitching, I provided names that refuted that statement. Those names won a lot of ball games. I mean sht dude, Rogers and Sterry won 11 games the same year, IIRC. Joey Devine was almost unhittable as a FR closer in '03. Those three were FILTHY.

Of course they were spread out over various teams, that's how time works. haha

Lemonis is just trying to save his own ass by getting rid of Scott. But sure, let's call it "pushing the envelope". haha
I'm not moving any goalposts. I'm not arguing anything. I'm just saying that we very rarely have consistent pitching/depth in order to compete for ACC title/supers and when we do we've done pretty well, but those instances are few and far between. You'd think in 25 years we've had lucked into one ACC title.
Pretzel logic as usual and a bit incorrect. But of course, yes, you'd think when you make the ACC championship game every 3.8 years odds are we'd win one. But guess what, if we're making the ACC title game essentially every 4 years that means we have in fact had the pitching to compete for ACC titles b/c Avent has done it 7 times over his tenure. We all wish he'd win one, like, no sht dude. haha

You really think we don't compete for ACC titles? I'll spell it out

Since 1997 when Elliott took over we've played in 7 title games as mentioned above. Only one other school has made more appearances in the ACC title game than us over that time period and that's FSU with legend Mike Martin Sr. with 11.

ACC title game appearances since 1997
FSU - 11 (won 7, all with Mike Martin Sr)
Ga Tech - 7 (won 5 all with Danny Hall)
NC State - 7 (zero wins)
Clemson - 6 (2 wins all with Jack Leggett)
unc - 5 (4 wins. 3 with Fox and 1 with Forbes)
Wake - 4 (3 wins all with George Greer in 98,99 and 01. Probably gets another this year)
UVA - 4 (2 wins all with Brian O'Conner)
Miami - 2 (1 and that was with legend Jim Morris who also won a bunch at Ga Tech before the MIA gig)
duke - 1 (1 win)
Va Tech - 1 (zero wins)
Maryland - 1 (zero wins)
Louisville - 1 (zero wins)

How am I cherry picking? Dude literally said "ACC titles". That's the ACC title.

Quite frankly, you're the one cherry picking.

Because Avent has made a bunch of tourney championship games in spite of having not great regular seasons, but when you only mention his acc tourney championship appearances, you imply more success than is actually there.

more pretzel logic. I'm not implying sht brother, the data is there.

what's a "great regular season"? Haha

I mean the dude has finished either 2nd or tied for 2nd place in the Atlantic division 7 out of the 16 years (doesn't include covid year of 2020) that the divisions have been in existence. 11 out of the 16 years he's finished top 3 in the division. We have been averaging a top 3 finish in the division since the divisions started. That's not success?

I've said it a million times, be careful what ya'll wish for.

Nothing at all hostile about me, dude. The entire post is me laughing, did you miss the laughing emoji? haha

I don't need to go anywhere, I've literally posted the data above for easy digestion.

Tough weekend for the team for sure but we don't have to make stuff up just b/c we're mad about the outcome.

And whatever it is you're wanting to complain about, it is not even close to what I was discussing with Cle.

The funny thing, and something I have considered doing but have never taken the time to try, would be comparing Avent's record and achievements versus every ACC school from the time their current head coach was hired.

EXAMPLE

Wake Forest: Tom Walter: Hired in 2010 (14 seasons)
Overall record at Wake Forest: 406-334-1
ACC Tournament Finals Appearances: 0
ACC Titles: 0
NCAA Tournament Appearances: 4 (will earn fifth in two weeks)
Super Regional Berths: 1
CWS Appearances: 0

NC State (since Walter was hired at Wake Forest in 2010)
Overall record: 510-278
ACC Tournament Finals Appearances: 4
ACC Titles: 0
NCAA Tournament Appearances: 10
Super Regional Berths: 3
CWS Appearances: 2


This would take some time to do with each of the 12 other ACC schools, and there will probably be some teams with better marks. It would be interesting to see where NC State under Avent stacks against all of the league competition. You could maybe add things like record versus the school and such.

I am not trying to change anyone's mind. I have opinions on NC State baseball and its leadership, which I think are well-known.

If you do itemize the situation with a breakdown like this and Avent's NC State teams are near the top, how do you justify making a change?

If I have time, and no one else does it by next weekend, maybe I will sit down and have a go at it.

Ok. I'd like to actually be able to win one of these. Fair? Lol. Just replace the word "compete", with "win" in my original post.

This is all good and well, but we have 0 acc tournament title wins under Avent. 0. We can compete but can't finish. It's annoying and it sucks. Just give me 1, please.

Issue is, idk if just replacing Avent changes this. I just know we don't look to be on an upward trajectory right now.
