    Yes. He has one more year.
    He will be a graduate student at Arizona. Heard rumor he couldn't get into a graduate program at Davis.

    I like how they magically added a packed house.

    I agree Goags.... The ship has sailed as far as them going back to D-1. They just should have never done it in the 1st place.
    UC Davis is a wonderful academic school and it should be commended for that.......but for anyone to think they will garner top notch talent in any sport is dreaming.
    Its just very frustrating watching game after game with the same results. Bad coaching, bad umpiring, bad turnout of fans and lots and lots of losing.
    They should maybe think of removing some sports like baseball, football etc.. and maybe get a top notch chess team or rodeo team going.

    Sorry, but Davis has never had the talent or the coaching to compete with most D-1 programs.

    They should have stayed in D-2 and maybe even D-3 with the way they recruit and the level of commitment the administration gives the program.

    All you have to do is look at the bottom line year after year after year. In the cellar ( or knocking on the door) every year

    It happened because Vaughn is a alter boy type coach.

    I have never seen him spend more then 20 seconds discussing a play with an umpire before he bows his head and walks off the field.

    Maybe I've been spoiled watching So Cal coaches come out fighting tooth and nail with umps without a care of the consequences. Maybe Vaughn is a pawn of an academic school where they preach tender loving compassion for umps and bad calls. Maybe Vaughn doesn't have the eggs to come out firing. Maybe Vaughn is a guy who should not be coaching D1 baseball because he doesn't know what he is doing. ( I for on believe this is the case).

    The chatter on this board has been that he started as a pitching coach but from I've seen for the last 4-5 years is a pitching staff that is the worst in the league with pitchers that think they can blow away a D-1 hitter with an 85 mph fast ball. They don't know how to pitch to contact and keep hitters off balance and that my friends falls directly on the pitching coach. D-1 hitters ( D2 and D3 hitters as well) will spit on a 85 mph fastball so where does that leave a guy like Vaughn?.

    I, like many, have grown weary of watching this program finish in last place year after year and clearly see that they don't know how to recruit D-1 quality players. Sorry if any parents are on this board but it's the truth. Not all players are good enough for D-1. Davis has no business being in the Big West Conference and don't have the talent, coaches, administration, money or facilities to attract top notch D-1 talent.

    Vaughn should have run those umps off his field and kicked dirt all over them as he berates them. He should have fought for his teams effort. What's the worse that could have happened? He gets thrown out of the game? Maybe sit out the next game? Big F-ing deal. These players would have respected him more for it. In fact if I was his boss I would have insisted he grow a pair and get his team fired up the win games or find a job with the local JC as an assistant coach.

    Instead he and his team will go about business as usual which is getting everyone excited over a win or two only to make you suffer while they lose the next 6 of 8 and end up in the cellar again.
  • Aggies defeat Utah Valley State !
    Yes, Razo probably had the best game as an Aggie so far.
    Problem is this team is still having trouble getting to the starter. All their runs came when they faced the relievers. Not a good sign when they are facing a sub par team.
    They need to clean up a few things on defense and start taking advantage of the mistakes others teams make.
    Let's see how they do with a crappy teams #3 starter today.
  • Time for Aggie baseball !
    It still amazes me that the Bio link on the players still have the same picture of them when they were a freshman as well as the same height and weights.
    Do they not have enough money to take new pictures of these guys every year and update their body measurements?
