How does Brownlee keep his job? He is now 71-149 for his career. They have a team ERA of 9.30 and WHIP of 1.97, which is horrible, bordering on laughable. Team batting average of .209 and been outscored 107-34.

They beat a ranked team once? Right? Lol

Edit: Upon further review, It appears to me this is a blanket question that could be asked about so many positions at wiu. Starting at the very top. But that's for another thread lol.
