do you not think stuff like this happened 25-30 years ago?

MAINE used to go every year. WICHITA STATE used to be a national powerhouse.

I can remember Loyola Marymount, The Citadel, UNO, Georgia Southern and Indiana State all reaching the CWS in the 80s and early 90s.

It's actually harder for a Cinderella to make the CWS now. You have to just win one weekend under the old format. Now you have to win your Regional on the road and then go on the road a second weekend and beat another powerhouse twice (usually).

But go on. We should leave Paul Mainieri alone because he couldn't beat a team at home that can't hit with a 4 run lead and 6 outs to go.

(edit--statement not aimed at you. Aimed at the "PARITY!" people who don't know history)
