It is obvious there are huge issues at A&M similar to ours in 2022, not to mention they probably lost the very best baseball coach in the land to their hated rival and he proved in 1 freaking season why he is the best! We have an overpaid lower half of the conference Head Coach who we cannot convince certain people that his NC was built at least 3/4 of the way by previous coaches. The effect Tanner and Rowdey had as leaders of that team is apparently immensely underrated by some of our fans! Lemonis should be coaching at a "Low Expectations" program, not at this pressure cooker! Lemonis at State is like Curley Hellman at LSU football!
I agree with everything you said. Especially about riding coat tails.

And no as a program overall none of those others have passed us but if things stay the way they are trending we will be rapidly letting them build at the worst possible time now that the rest of the SEC actually decided to give a damn about baseball.
