First, I am very excited this team made the tournament. I have said it before, and I will say it again, college baseball has the most parity and is the only sport a bottom seed could really make a run.
With that being said, I am not sure the 12-seed is super exciting, nor the trajectory this program should be on. Jordano has one more year on his contract, but I am still interested in seeing what Lyke does. This year the ACC might have the fewest teams make the tournament that is has in years past which is telling of the conference health this past year--UVA down, MIA down, WF down. I do not know how we will spin this year's 1-8 conference finish--injuries, draft, etc?
Am I the only one that has mixed feelings about this season--happy about the tournament, but unhappy with the mediocrity of the program?
Other things to consider: Sabino and Freure have legitimate chances to go in the draft which could be bad news for next year.
