This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.

Important notes on articles:

• Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
• Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
• If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

The fact they had to quote him from 2017 is problematic by ndgotrobbedin97

He has no skin in the game. He obviously doesn't have to care about baseball. His last public comment on the f***** program is from 2 years ago, and this is after they were absolutely humiliated at the dismal end to a dismal season in 2018. He said NOTHING.

This is the worst of it in my opinion....especially since he lost to all 3 Michigan directional schools. ACC?? How about competing in the MAC, you excuse-machine:

“It’s a daunting conference, for sure,” said Aoki, who had to make the same jump at his previous stop, Boston College. “I think it’s always a challenge here, right? Notre Dame had a really unique niche in the Big East.”

Recruiting was easier in the Big East, he suggested, when Notre Dame was the most academically oriented school that still “placed a pretty strong emphasis” on baseball. Outspending their ACC baseball brethren is nearly impossible, and the number of strong academic schools that remain committed to baseball is much higher in this conference.
