Polk also coached in a completely different era. When we hired him we had only been to Omaha once and had ZERO wins in Omaha. He won our first ever CWS game in 1979 and honestly I don't really think our fans or any fans in the SEC believed a SEC team could win a NC in baseball until our 1985 team came close. We weren't the first to do it but I'm pretty sure if we brought back 1979 Polk in a time machine we would win some National Championships in this current environment.

Oh yeah- he also recruited a guy named John Cohen so that set some things in order down the road that led to our NC.

Lemonis basically deserves credit for not pulling a Moorhead in baseball.
