    I agree. 15-15 should be the floor.

    Just ironic that Lemonis put together this crap schedule hoping to stack wins but it may end up costing him his job.

    I think he put together the schedule because of the new PC and giving him time to figure out the staff. Everybody knows- especially Lemon- that what he does in the SEC controls his fate- not OOC. We were 18-5 OOC last year- stacking wins. Didnt matter. This year's OOC doesnt matter either. A 14 or more SEC baseball team is not getting left out in this day as tough as the SEC is

    This has been brought up by T&L and other entertainment outlets.

    You cant put a certain numbers of wins out there and say floor.

    The standard at State in baseball is make the NCAA's with the expectation of advancement to a Super or better more often than not.

    Lemon is on his 3rd strike.

    Should JoMo have gotten a "3rd strike"?

    This is your biggest issue and why you don't get it. You compare baseball coaching to football coaching. You can't do that because it's a completely different field. Baseball has a completely different recruiting cycle than football. Baseball coaches have to go through a full season basically without any of their recruits. In football you can have some of your own players in year one. Baseball coaches prefer stability rather than prestige from coaching in the SEC and getting a massive contract before settling down. That's why you see coaches stay at mid majors forever sometimes- especially if they are well liked and comfortable.

    That's why MSU is handling Lemonis differently than they handled Moorhead. Because they actually understand the difference.
