    And in the last 12 days, they have wins over the #1 team in the country and the #6 team in the country.

    I think a lot of people have “the standard” placed a little higher than where it is in reality.

    We are not making a regional this year. Hell we are going to struggle to make our own conference tournament. Our standard should be a regional every year. We are in a good enough conference for the top 4 teams to make a regional each year. Top 4 in our own conference should be the standard

    If you think this Cajun team is anywhere close to being below average, I’m sorry, but you simply have no idea what you’re talking about.

    We are an average (at best) team in an above average conference.

    SWAC, southland, and moral victories don’t get us into the post season, unfortunately. Hell, with the Jekyll and Hyde team we have, we could miss the conference tournament. So, yeah I think we have a right to be upset when we ____ away wins with passed ball’s, hit batters, walks, etc.

    Sorry but the standard is the standard. It shouldn't get lowered for you.

    We are in the most frustrating section of D1. We solidly in the top 30% RPI, good enough to compete with the best for a game or two.

    We just don't have enough juice to compete for an at large bid right now.

    So, we wind up looking on as the good teams we beat for a game, LSU, Campbell, Coastal, probably USM all host regionals.

    Nothing is more frustrating than being close enough to taste an at large, but it's just out of your grasp

    We have made great progress under Deggs leadership. We are close, but need to fix some ____ before we get over the top.

    Mediocrity and crap

    This Cajun team isn’t great. But they are in the top 75% of teams in the country in the RPI.

    And they are middle of the pack in the Sun Belt, which is the 5th best conference in the country…out of 30.

    I’m not sure what your definition of mediocre is, but it doesn’t match what the actual one is.

    If you “_____ despise this team” so much, why do you continue to follow, watch, and comment about them?

    That seems weird.

    I’m not lowering it. I’m stating what the actual results have been for the program.

    Some seem to think that 1999-2000 and 2013-2017 are the norm. They’re not.

    They’re outliers and should obviously be celebrated.

    To compare every team, every year to that is misguided at best.

    All of this same stuff was said all year last year, and the season ended in a regional. This one may or may not.

    We haven’t won a series against a team above .500. Our pitching staff can’t going a series without having a game where they give up 10+ free bases. And every time we seem to get a good pitching performance, our offense is inept

    All true. Yet, again, in the top 75% of the RPI teams in the country. And above .500, in the middle of the pack of the 5th best conference in the country. And coming off a season that ended in a regional, with a (probably outside) chance to finish this one there as well.

    So does the team suck? Or are expectations unrealistically high?
