Contend for the regular season SEC title every year. By contend, I mean be in the top 4-5 overall standings.

Make the SEC tournament every year.

Make the NCAA tournament every year.

Host a regional on a regular basis.

Make a super regional on a regular basis. Contend to host a super regional on a regular basis.

Make Omaha and contend for the CWS at least every 3-4 years.

Agree or disagree?

Basically the expectations we should set. Obviously forgiving to have a down year every so often, but missing tournament 2-3 years (in a row) should put any coach on very thin ice here.

That's pretty reasonable. I would accept a down year every 4-5 years mi think that is reasonable. But the standard you listed is extremely fair for this program.

agree with all of that. all of that is still achievable this year but we really need to get our shite together. if we miss the tourney again major changes are needed. I still have faith though.

Agree x100, an off year is just hosting a regional or being a 2 seed.

Realistic


making the NCAA tournament every year is pretty unrealistic, no matter the program, no matter the sport.

I'll say it again. We did not build the new Box to sit dark and empty in the post season. Just can't happen.

To the original poster-Stop it, we are in a spot to achieve everything that you listed.

What really should be at issue and discussed is Paul Maneiri admitting he basically took a year off. No other profession allows you to do this, yet alone admit doing it.
