SBC BB Final: Louisiana 3, Coastal Carolina 6

Allegedly

Both are considered in the Top 150 draft eligible players. If the money is decent, they are gone.

Yup. Mediocre year. Let's hope Degs gets pitching wise

I disagree as far as a mediocre assessment is concerned. 2019 we had a losing record. That is mediocre in my opinion. Granted we wanna win 40 every year and that is still attainable, but maybe not probable.

Will say it again, they have to win the tournament.

Understood but crazy things happen in the MLB draft. Hoping for the best for both young men but sometimes things aren’t as they seem come draft time.

Losing record for THIS program = DISASTER.

If we do not make the tournament, which we will not if we do not win the tournament, the season is a failure. Did not compete for the regular season championship. Did not REALLY compete for an at large spot. Failure.

Mediocre for this program is getting sent somewhere across the country as a 3 seed with an outside shot to win the regional. We didn't even achieve that.

Every year only one player is happy with their draft position.

Our SOS dropped 30 spots from last year to this year and we only won 3 more games in the regular season. No bueno.

We need a true pitching coach which we dont have and we will need to replace Wells after this year. Word is he is leaving for a college HC gig. Maybe replace him with the HC from Terulings? I forgot his name.

Badeaux? He’s nowhere near a pitching coach. I will say if he were to be back on the staff full time I don’t think we would ever have to worry about Lafayette talent going elsewhere as long as he was here. If you played youth baseball in Lafayette, you knew Brooks Badeaux. He’s had a hand in training/lessons in a large percentage of youth players in Lafayette for a long time.

I couldn’t disagree more. I don’t think people understand how good Coastal Carolina is. From where this program has been the last few years, to expect UL to win a reg season championship this year is unfair.

To say they haven’t competed for an at-large is also unfair. Currently one of last teams out per D1Baseball (yes, not the gospel but a decent barometer of where they are in the committee’s eyes).

It is harder than ever for UL programs to be nationally competitive. Not competing annually for a conf championship in a 1-bid league or being sub .500, yes that won’t cut it. But SBC is a top baseball league this year.

This team seems to be competing especially when it could have nosedived after the JMU weekend. I wanna see this team win tonight and let’s see what happens. Either way, I think “failure” is a little strong.

Our league is good enough this season to field at least 3 regional teams. Win the series against App-f'ing-State and don't crap the bed against JMU and we aren't even sweating this weekend.
