Raleigh and Team Chemistry

"After the game, Raleigh made the Vols run the steps of Lindsey Nelson Stadium. That led to some dicey moments between a couple of Vols who yelled and cussed each other as they ran the steps."

From the GoVolsXtra article on the Vols 14-9 loss to Western Carolina tonight...interesting

Western Carolina roughs up pitchers, 14-9 GoVolsXtra

Raleigh MUST go! It was a very bad hire from the start. When you go cheap, youo get what you pay for, A JERK who cannot coach.

I thought the NCAA outlawed postgame "punishment conditioning" a few years ago...

Never been in favor of a mid season firing but this might be different! If the team is turning on each other he has lost them. Its time for MH to step in!

I don't know much about our baseball team but everything I have read so far on the boards and paper indicates this guy sucks. Get rid of this cancer.

Raleigh's tactics are always the same. Last year he called a midnight practice after a loss and before a road trip. Players had to take exams with 2 hours of sleep. He also forces the players to call each other out. He wants them fighting and yelling at each other. What a great strategy, huh? Where does this jerk get his ridiculous coaching techniques from--this crap doesn't work in business and it never works on a team. But I will repeat, MH does NOT care about this team or these boys. If he did, this guy would have been gone last year. Have you noticed that Todd never takes ANY responsibility for the team losses? Great coaches always some responsibility for not having their team prepared to win--but he throws the team under the bus every time. He needs to look in the mirror if he wants to know the reason this team keeps losing.

I wish the players would start yelling and cussing at the idiot running the team.

Todd has some provocative pictures of Mike, Bob Kesling, Layla Kiffin and Brian Williams in a hot tub full of orange kool-aid. Like I always say...If you can't beat 'em, blackmail 'em. Hahaha!!!

“But I’m not playing,” Raleigh said. “If our players took it as hard as I did, it would be a little bit different, but obviously tonight we weren’t ready to play for some reason.”

I'm sure our players take it very hard that they get beat by teams like Kennesaw State, Binghamton and Western Carolina. A team can't win a series from Ole Miss unless it's capable of doing something right. Unfortunately, they can't always overcome their nincompoop of a coach.

Raleigh ought to be fired just for repeatedly throwing his players under a bus every time they take an embarrassing loss. It's way past time MH gave Raleigh a one-way ticket on the bus out of town.

I can't believe this guy gets away with some of his comments, given that we've seen 3 years of this now and he still acts like it couldn't be him.
