I think I’ve got a pretty good handle on how hard it is to be really really good, so I don’t expect championship year in and year out.

But I do expect as our program, we could lose all our guys and literally have to sign 34 new players in baseball between highschoolers and portal and we should never ever ever miss the NCAA tournament and ahould never get swept by nearly half of our SEC series.

The staff has failed spectacularly this year. The pieces were there to finish 20 to 25% better than we will but not enough pieces to be awesome, which is another miss, but enough that we shouldn’t be this abhorrent.

Seems to me that I heard CJJ take responsibility...he said that he should have kept some of the guys who left & that they missed badly on some of the guys they brought in & he made his point about men's baseball cut on the NIL pie.
I also seem to remember that he & that staff was pretty busy in the summer of '25 when the portal opened up...oh yea...they was winning us number 8.
I join the krewe who hates what has happened this year, but I believe we are having a joy ride compared to what CJJ is having. I learned a long time ago that when someone with ability takes it on the chin & accepts responsibility, good thing usually follow.
I think we will be OK.

Jay is a great coach. And everyone can blame the transfers, but it goes deeper than that. Most of the returning players (especially pitchers), did not develop into better players from last year to now. It’s hard to claim the transfers lack talent when we couldn’t develop those that we already had.

Jay will get it figured out, but the talent level on this team is better than the record.

Some of the blame goes to the baseball calendar. This staff missed on just about everyone but there were guys that they wanted that signed elsewhere or they fell really behind on in their recruitment while they were playing for a championship in Omaha. The Ncaa puts teams playing deep into Omaha at a pretty decent disadvantage.

or maybe they are not that talented. how can you tell?

its not like this is the team with Stanley roberts and shaq and CJ and we can look back and wonder how they didnt make the final four.

maybe these guys are not that great. beyond curiel where is the high level talent?

With no injuries the season probably ends in disappointment, but they make the tourney.
