We just finished 14th and 13th in the SEC and didn’t fire him. Do you really think we are going to fire him if he makes the Tourney this Spring?

With our resources, the "goal" should be Omaha, a Super should be considered "normal" (We have top 16 history, coaching pay, NIL, facilities, amd Cohen/Cann/Henderson/early Lemo all showed it's consistently achievable here), and a regional is the bare minimum. Just making the field of 64 is a pathetically low bar, probably the equivalent of a 5-7 football season for us. Just because Lemo has been doing the equivalent of 4-8 these past 2 seasons doesn't mean we should view a 5-7 season as the "goal".
IN MY OPPINION, Lemo should be fired if he can't get back to the State standard of a SR. Or at least be 1 win away from making a SR. He's lost all grace, it's time to prove you can get us back or get out.
However, I agree with C34 about what WILL happen. If he makes a regional I bet the same boosters/AD that didn't fire him after missing Hoover a 2nd straight years will not fire him after making the field of 64. And we will then have a 4th year of bad/mediocre Baseball in '25 before we get a new coach.

When do we expect to start seeing movement?
Congrats guys on lowering the standard
I refuse to mail it in like some fans. In my job, I interact with incoming students fairly regularly. Cheese and Loper have been in my office with the freshman throughout the summer and those guys as well as the players are still engaged. They want to win and I think they now have the ability to win with Parker coming in.
I seen a lot and heard some crazy things the past 2 years. People going down with Lemonis until the end of the 2023 season. I really don?t hear from them too much anymore. They are just optimistic now. The craziest of all is State baseball fans getting put in the same sentence with Alabama football. I never thought Mississippi State fans would get called spoiled for having high standards. What a day to be alive on that day.
What threads are you reading?? I and a VERY few others have mentioned a SR being the standard. I've seen NOBODY say he's gone if he say, hosts a regional but looses it. I've seen people say a 2 seed keeps him and nobody actually disagreeing that our admin would keep him in that situation.
What an idiot, everyone knows your top Portal commits should be kept secret and they shouldn't even in the Portal yet ***
Imagine talking to an Ole Miss fan about football. You say they have no QB or DL and probably won't be good, and he responds with "No man you don't know! There's this absolute stud of a QB who's transferring here and some top end SEC DL as well! Oh their names? Uhh the names are secret. And they aren't in the Portal despite it only being 2 weeks away from closing. But they'll totally enter and commit to us roght before the end! The Message Board Insiders implied it!"
You'd laugh in the face of that OM fan for being a homer. NOW, is it possible we pull Montgomery and a stuf 3B at the last second like some have said? Sure. But the evidence for it is no greater than that OM fan above...
Rosey saying we have secured our 3B guy and waiting for him to announce
That?s all fine and dandy but until I see some announcements, I?m not going to consider anyone in the boat.
