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.
