Come on USA Today and NCBWA polls, give us top billing in yours as well.
Houston Cajun is correct....and it is fantastic that we are #1
I guess you just want to stay handcuffed to the JUCO!!Quote:

Holy crap Batman I'm going to celebrate this afternoon Geaux Cajuns
Here's the excert from Collegiate Baseball's poll!!
"LOUISIANA NO. 1 IN COLLEGIATE BASEBALL POLL
TUCSON, Ariz. — Louisiana-Lafayette is ranked No. 1 for the first time in Collegiate Baseball’s NCAA Division I baseball poll presented by Big League Chew bubble gum.
South Carolina, ranked No. 1 the past three weeks, slipped to second after losing two of three at Kentucky.
The Ragin’ Cajuns (22-2) have won 12 in a row and feature a pitching staff with a 2.30 ERA, 180 strikeouts and only 64 walks over 24 games. On offense, the team has belted 28 homers, 52 doubles and 11 triples while hitting .303 as a team and averaging 7.5 runs per game. Louisiana-Lafayette has stolen 40 bases while limiting opponents to only 9. The 22-2 start is the best in school history.
Louisiana-Lafayette has already beaten Louisiana St. in Baton Rouge, La. and took two of three from Alabama in earlier series. Over the past weekend, the Ragin’ Cajuns swept a 3-game set from Georgia St."
Wow wow wow!!!
Edit: I was so damn excited about this that I didn't even notice they called us LOUISIANA in their headline. Holy smokes people!
What am I doing tomorrow night? Oh, just going to watch the top ranked team in the country play baseball. NO BIG DEAL
Ragin Cajuns # 1.....man I will re-read this thread several times today....Congrats to Coach Robe, his staff and the players.....Geaux Cajuns
Man, I better get there extra early for the Diamond Club meeting tomorrow. They better put us in a bigger room.
This is huge!Quote:

Only 1 position up in USA Today, but it is still a move in the right direction.
So far #1, #3, #4 and #6.
I bet we don't hire someone before you _____ about something on this board again...Quote:

Simple question...would you like to be ranked #1 as Louisiana Ragin' Cajuns from the University of Louisiana-Lafayette or have a team like the hoax and be named University of Louisiana?
Drop the name stuff and savor the moment...#1 ranking in a D1 NCAA sport ...other than water skiing or bass fishing...
THIS IS BIG!!!!!!!!
2 spots up.Quote:

This is not because we're lower in this poll, but because of stuff like this. Coaches dont have the time to devote to researching teams like the media does. Guys that look at every team up top will know more about those teams than a coach, who by his own accord, will more than likely tell you he's more worried about his own team and the opponents on the schedule. I put a little more stock into the other 4 polls than this one.
