This staff is super talented. We dont even have any expectations right now for Loftin- and he is a guy that could be a weekend SP if he gets it together and stays healthy.

The hitting talent is there. No excuses.

I'd rather be Larry Coker with my 2 titles than Kyle Whittingham with no titles

And titles should REALLY matter to a school that never had one before 2021.

There's only been 6 coaches in history that have 3 or more titles.
Rod Dedeaux x11
Augie Garrido x5
Skip Bertman x5
Pat Casey x3
Jerry Kindall x3
Bobby Winkles x3

The "new'" coach is Mitch Canham who was hired just one year after Lemonis was hired at State. In those five years, he never won the Pac12 (despite having the most talent in that league) and he's never made it to Omaha. This "potential giant" sure hasn't shown much potential.

So basically no current coach in college baseball has 3 titles. So I guess nobody is elite in college baseball today

VH has 7 CWS appearances in 21 seasons at UPig. That's 1 trip every 3 seasons.

Lemon is averaging 1 trip every 2.5 seasons
