    I am far from in love with this team, but we have some guys really underachieving with the bat. I think more than a little bit of that has to do with our ex-sex addict coach. If he could not keep his head in a actual baseball game, you know he did not put the work he should have in to developing our guys. Frick cann

    You have completely eradicated any credibility (if you ever had any) in regards to baseball.

    We won the SEC regular season two years ago. The team that got hot in the postseason and over achieved was the team that beat us in the supers.

    2016 team underachieved if anything. Ran into a hot Arizona club which played for a natty. That team was big and physical (Lowe, rooker, hump, Krueger, etc) unlike this group. Part of that is bc we are playing 4 true freshman.

    I think you guys are kinda arguing past each other. SD made a main point and a side point to support it; his main point being that our current roster isn't that talented, and his supporting point being that our past several seasons have been the same.

    7 and others are pointing out how stupid that supporting point is (How can you win the SEC, be a national seed, and make the supers 2 straight years if your roster "lacks talent"?), and ignoring the overall point about the lack of talent on this team. SD is too prideful to admit he made a bad supporting point, and is now acting like attacking his 2nd point is the same as attacking his overall point.

    For the record, I think both of you are partially right. This team doesn't seem to have the returning talent at P to be good next year. We need another year or 2 of good recruiting to fill out the lineup too. However, this is not a chronic problem, and the program itself is clearly capable of rebounding after bad years ('15 to '16)

    I think there are some things that need addressed and you mentioned some of them but when you couldn't be more wrong about something as big as winning the SEC it kinda negates the other things.

    So yes...the stupid parts of your post are why you have caused a small uproar

    Step off the ledge, we will be fine next year. Cannizaro killed this season by not developing the upperclassmen, it is what it is. Our top line pitching was hurt by Tommy John surgery, it is what it is.

    We should be finally recovered by next year, except Spencer Price obviously.

    We have been to 1 CWS in the last 10 years and only 2 in the last 20
    We have 1 SEC title since 1990
    We have 3 conference tourney titles since 1990
    We have only finished in the top 16 of the country 5 times in the last 16 years
    While we have made Supers the last 2 seasons- we were dominated in both

    All true, except, Arizona didn't dominate us. 2 close games that we were a pitch away from winning both really.
