I do agree a bit with what you are saying, however in two short weeks we moved up ten spots and there are many "big name" schools ranked below us. Moving up as quick as we have has made many folks take notice. This could be a very good year!Quote:

And if we keep winning, with the upgrade in SOS, we have a GREAT chance to end up with an RPI high enough to host. THAT's got to be the goal so to then get to the WCWS.Quote:

If we can hang around 10 we'll have the attention of the people we need come time for regional placement. That's where we need to be...Quote:

For this team to stay highly, and I mean highly ranked, we cannot have more than 3-4 loses all year long. But this team is scary good. Remember rank does not equal seeding when it comes to tournament time. We need to take care of business and win the big games and not slip up on the weaker teams. We can fall as fast as we went up, faster.
I predict Baylor will not be Top 10 at the end of the year (they are currently #10). Canion is out for the year with an ACL tear.Quote:

But that just shows what I was mentioning. Although it would be great to be ranked 5th or whatever (nice for fan excitement...nice for recruits to notice), I much prefer just WINNING...and letting the rankings just take care of themselves.
The ONLY thing I am eyeing right now is winning enough to have an RPI high enough to host. My prediction is that if we host we go to the WCWS.
It would be nice to get a national seed so we don't have to do 2010 all over againQuote:

Yep. They're doing their part. We just need to keep doing ours.Quote:
