And I'll add- I really think by next year we will be back to what we "expect" to be.
Really it's a matter of not getting decimated in the draft which I don't anticipate and hopefully with a successful season we can attract better portal talent.
This definitely appears to be a season we can build upon at the very least.

Most fans don't understand that this current freshman class we just added this year is the first one since we won the NC- and therefore the first one where we reap the benefits of the NC. Which is a big reason why our powers that be were against firing Lemonis in the first place. And it's looks like they were pretty spot on.
None of this is a surprise to you and me though.
Also I think a lot of folks are still viewing sec baseball through the 70's and 80's lens when we were kings. That all changed in the 90's when everyone else jumped on board and started caring and it's even more so now!

SEC baseball is actually greater than SEC Football. SEC Football is 2 teams- Bama and Georgia. SEC baseball is 10 teams

Yeah sec baseball is sec football on mega steroids. It's brutal every weekend and it's not a surprise when we get 10 teams in every year and win the natty more often than not.

That's why I was laughing at fans lamenting about our SEC schedule when it came out. I was like- looks like a normal year to me!
You can't hide for 10 weeks in this league.

Yep there's no easy outs. No pasty's in this league, accept for maybe Missouri. Every weekend is a playoff type atmosphere.

As Jim Ross from the WWE use to say, "this ain't no bed and breakfast!"

I am ready to see Texas join, and face reality in college baseball. They have had an easy go in the Big 12 for years.
Plus it only helps open more TX recruiting for the SEC
TX baseball in the SEC though just adds another level of quality and viewership and a TX state wide eye opener to the quality of SEC baseball.
