I haven't followed closely but thought recently the BB team was playing relatively well.

Simply buckling because it was 17-3 or NIU on the same day as the spring wrap up?

Couple the NIU loss with losses at Ball State of 21-1 and 13-2 last weekend and Gernon better come up with some answers! No way we shouldn't be competing within the MAC West. Disgraceful!

We've now lost eight in a row going into Sunday finale with NIU, and 17-3 wasn't even worst loss in that period (21-1 at Testicle Tech).

At least we avoided the home sweep.

Success in baseball depends so much on pitching and hitting.

It seems that WMU supports baseball; nice facilities, recruiting local talent, scholarships for players. What can WMU do beyond that?

Coaching is a crap shoot. I suppose that is one area that could be addressed. However, having said that, I am not making a statement on Gernon.
I just think it is a tough game.

Coaching is a crap shoot *when you actually try to have a coach*.

WMU does not have good facilities! A big problem is "the union". The field has been screwed up so many times! Last season they could barely play on it! This last game there was a 20 minute delay of game because home plate was messed up! Umps would not let game proceed! It's embarrassing! Just like hockey and basketball I think the coaches are doing the best they can do with what they have and the investment made in their sports to compete at this level! Until someone rolls out the red carpet and provides the rest of WMU sports with what they have for football recently then it's not going to get easier or better! There's only so much money to go around and so many millionaires out there and unfortunately for the other sports, the ones we do have are football fans. The coaches only have so much time to fundraise... Trying to recruit and win games! WMU needs an aggressive fundraising department with a staff and direction. Give hockey, baseball and basketball what they need to compete and then if they fail... Well then it's on the coach!
