By comparison, Dave Schrage was 119-104-1 (.533).

The only ND baseball coaches with career records worse than Aoki's were Tom Kelly (1976-1980, 88-102-1 (.463)) and Larry Gallo (1981-1987, 157-167-3 (.485)). That was back when ND played at Jake Kline Field, which was barely up to Little League standards.

7-26 dating back to the end of April last year *

One would think these are damning numbers, but no

Apparently the program just isn't ready to compete in the ACC, because god forbid Jack would have to admit he made a bad hire.

I think the only hope is---sadly---what Cbo mentioned just below. A complete cluster**** of a season. Well, we already seem to be witnessing that, but perhaps it has to continue for the PTB to notice, and be shamed into action.
As far as I can tell, ND's worst season was 1987 (15-29)

That prompted the change from Gallo to Pat Murphy. ND's school record for losses was 2010 (22-32), which got Schrage fired and Aoki hired.

I suspect we will have a lower WP than 1987 and more losses than 2010. In fact, a 40-loss season is a distinct possibility.
