You've pretty much all but said you expect Omaha ever year.
Where did I say that? You previously asked me what my expectations are and this was my response:
quote:
First, LSU should host a regional EVERY year and LSU should play (notice I don't say "host") in a Super Regional every year. To date, that has not happened. Also, you'll notice those goals would require making the tournament every year, something that has also not happened.
Second, LSU should never be in a position where, after 4 years (i.e. one complete cycle of recruiting, developing and coaching kids), they don't make Omaha. I don't care about the parity or the bats or the lack of talent.
So to summarize for you since you seem to have a reading problem: make the postseason every year, host a regional every year, play in a Super Regional every year, and make Omaha at least once every 4 years. Was that really so hard to understand?
So, no, I have not pretty much said that I expect Omaha every year. Good try, though.

You said a coach who won SEC titles who didn't make it to Omaha wouldn't be good enough....yet Mainieri has taken LSU to the CWS twice
Well considering I was using that statement as an example to prove my point regarding what should be the factors in judging one's job performance, I'm not entirely sure how to address your claim of my "alleged" position.
Nonetheless, yes, I think a coach who wins SEC titles every year but fails to make Omaha should be considered under-performing. Because if they are good enough to win the SEC against tougher competition, they would logically be good enough to win 5 games in the postseason against lesser competition.
I was speaking in the abstract, josh. Do a little more reading next time and really think about what I was saying before you try to come attack me and catch me in a contradiction.
