Gene Stephenson wants to enter college baseball hall without an end to his career.
Didn't see that anyone had already posted this. I'll reserve my comments at this time.

SB,
I find it a tad ironic that the picture you so proudly boast in your avatar was created by a man that you are going out of your way to trash pretty hard.
It's one thing to think the move to fire Gene was the one in the best interest of the program, but the constant tearing down of the guy at every corner is probably a bit much. Especially considering, again, what your avatar represents.Deuces Valley.
... No really, deuces.

I have two degree from WSU and a commision that came through opportunties at WSU and that is where my loyalty lays, and I won't apologize for it. Gene did some great things for himself, but he brought dishonor to WSU by his activities off the field and eventually it affected his on field performance and he became an over paid MVC coach.
I want fHCGS to be treated with respect and receive the accolades he's earned and deserved. The sooner that happens, the quicker the deep rift will mend for many Shocker fans (and former players) over the manner in which fHCGS was discharged.
As Fever noted... Ironic that your avatar picture was built on the backs of the players that Gene recruited and the coach who was the leader of that program. Keep Eric in perspective as he contributed nothing to its success. He's a manager and might turn out to be a decent manager once he grows into the job. But he's not a leader. Big difference.

SB's commission came from the US Army. This topic started out pretty well and had some interesting observations until it got side tracked as people started to take shots and make denigrating comments about the players involved. And now we are where we are. The part where GS gets his ass kissed, I'm pretty sure that won't be one of the honors or accolades he is deserving of.
