This is just not true, though. The reason the SEC produces more NCAA tournament baseball teams is because there are more good baseball teams in the conference than basketball. I realize this is obvious, but there is nothing inherent about being an SEC basketball team that makes it more difficult to reach the postseason than being an SEC baseball team. It just so happens that the SEC hires better coaches and gets better players in baseball than in basketball.
When evaluating the job performance of any single coach, it still should be evaluated the same way.
If State was as good in basketball as we are in baseball, we would make the postseason more in basketball.
