Expectations

[CajunVic]

Outside of Campbell and Coastal, are we better than the teams that we lost series to? Are we good enough to sweep some of the teams that we dropped a game to? Answer to the first question is yes on App and JMU, toss up on Troy. Answer to second question is I believe we should have swept at least Rice, High Point or USA. That's 5 wins. We would be leading the 5th best conference in the country. NIL is a red herring at least right now. What the future holds, I don't know.

So, you expect Louisiana to win EVERY game that we should win in baseball. That is just unrealistic IMO.

My general point is that NIL is what will keep us from getting much better talent than we have on the team right now.

It’s not a red herring. In fact, it is the major factor which will continue to limit the talent pool which are in fact available for Louisiana to recruit.

Get our NIL available dollars up and we may be able to snag a pitcher or 2 and a position player or 2, but not a full team.

It is what it is.

He was also raking the mound both Saturday and Sunday before the game.

That sounds good; I am no doctor, but I will drive by a Holiday Inn Express before I consult this again.

NIL is not a factor in recruiting baseball players at UL for the time being. We were never recruiting to 50-100 players nationally. We make a living on southeast Texas and Louisiana. Most of those guys have raw talent but aren’t polished. That’s what we do here. We develop talent.

The real question is, why is the Kangol hat fraud still being allowed to post here? All the lies, the troll jobs and the confirmed multiple accounts and still allowed to spew his stupidity…

Maybe you should read again, 1 of the 2 we lost to App st, 2 of the 3 we lost to JMU and 1 or two of the teams we should have swept.
