    I keep reading here about our strong talent level, but it is not enough to beat some OOC teams this year or as with today a Tuesday afternoon game with Central Arkansas. And when we lose, the excuse, "That's Baseball" is often used. We have a HC that has followed a NC with some Alpha Dawgs who were mainly previous coaches' players with a 14TH AND 13TH place finish in our own conference the past two years. We also seem to have lowered our standards on what is acceptable improvement this year. What is our overall record and in the SEC the past two years and this season to date?

    Yeah, it's pretty bad. Every team has a couple of "That's Baseball" games every year, but we've had 6 and counting. We scheduled a fairly weak non-conference schedule that's going to hurt our RPI, and then we're racking up bad losses on top of that. At this point, I wouldn't expect to make a Regional at all if we have a losing conference record, and I wouldn't expect to host unless we can get to 20+ SEC wins and leave the committee no choice.

    We're digging ourselves a hole. Hopefully the talent on the team can brute force our way out of it.
