Making a Super Regional is our minimum expectation.

I think missed regionals should definitely be rare, but are there 4 programs so bad in the SEC we should never drop into the bottom four? Missouri? UK? It seems like every SEC team takes baseball relatively seriously now and never falling into the bottom three or four is a tall order.
We put more emphasis on it than everybody but LSU. I expect Supers with a couple of trips to Omaha. Also expect having a down year where you might be a 2 or 3 seed, possibly miss the regional by a hair.
The last 2 years are probably the worst years in MSU History that the head coach wasn't either taking over a dumpster fire (Cohen) or the coach didn't get fired (Polk II).
At least we got a new pitching coach after the worst pitching in a season in MSU history.
Ah the dumbass speaketh.
Where is my "annual Omaha prediction" this year? I'd like to see a link on that. Pretty much every time I have predicted that it came to fruition including in 2018 when I caught a lot of heat most of the year because I didn't predict the Cann saga.
Our program standard has and always will be to make a Super Regional at a minimum. I'd like for you to explain to me why that is "delusional" for our program given our success from 2011-2021? It's not like we don't have one of the top programs in the country as far as resources go.
You're probably too busy making idiotic posts about "sports that make money" to notice.
rockydog taking it hard
Yep. If there ever was a troll in threads it is guys like Rockydog don't even care about baseball commenting in a thread about...... baseball.
I may disagree with posters about how to fix things and I criticize coaching and players for reasons that should fe obvious to all, but I, like most here, love our baseball program and have extremely high expectations every year!
I don't know that this is true anymore. Arkansas is right there with us and LSU. UGA is putting $45 million into Foley Field - most in player oriented facilities (locker room, pitching lab, etc.); Florida just spent $65m on their new park that will hold 10,000; Tennessee is putting $95 m into their facilities; A&M is putting $60m into Blue Bell. We have crowds, but don't discount the interest and funding in the rest of the SEC.
Great post! I know me and you don't always agree but I love your passion for our baseball program. I believe most of us only want what's best for State. Part of the reason I enjoy this board is because of all the different perspectives you read on here. There are a ton of posts that, if you're open minded enough can make you stop and consider something you've probably never thought about before. Obviously we have some nut jobs too but the vast majority of folks on here are great posters.
