Gamecock Baseball is 0-12 under Paul Mainieri in Game 3s of series against the SEC/Clemson. They will try to snap that streak at Noon today in Gainesville, but the track record says there is little chance.
In those games, Carolina has been outscored.
Cumulatively: 109-40
Average Score: 9.08-3.33
Average Margin of Defeat: 5.75 runs
I have some more cold, hard baseball facts for later. This is the worst this program has been in my lifetime and I was born in late 1976.
@jordankaye_23 This is an absolute failure on behalf of our athletics administration. Add on the roughly $26-30M buyouts of baseball and basketball staffs (for coaches he hired), and we are in for a disaster for the next decade+. It’s great to be a Gamecock!
Not sure what we #Gamecocks fans did to deserve this misery but the last 14+ months have been THE WORST of my lifetime watching Men’s Sports…
Getting blown out by Army in baseball today might be the lowest of the lows… Sad thing is, not sure we’ve hit Rock Bottom yet… #CB90
From a business standpoint, loyalty is an asset.
But in college football, it can become a liability.
South Carolina has one of the most committed fanbases in college football. But when demand never dips, pressure can fade. Incentives shrink. And inconsistency starts to feel… acceptable.
Is unwavering fan loyalty quietly enabling the mediocrity everyone’s frustrated with?
I took a hard look at the Gamecocks’ attendance paradox.
Gamecock fans enabling mediocrity? Why South Carolina Football can’t break the cycle https://t.co/31loHPpsSK
One could argue that both Alabama and South Carolina's resumes get big boosts with Georgia and (if score holds) Clemson winning conference titles.
So strange to hear Warde Manuel say those teams can't jump in the rankings because they're not playing. I don't get it.
