sort of makes me wonder if I should've passed on renewing my season tickets.

Picked 10th and no all conference picks


The 2017 Conference USA baseball season begins Friday, February 17. The league sent four teams to the NCAA Baseball Championship last season and ranked No. 5 among all conferences in 2016.

I though we were supposed to be pretty good. Granted preseason rankings don't mean anything. We have a lot of young talent from what I've heard.

They were not good at all last season. Improvement is in the eye of the beholder, but I'll be somewhat mollified if this team makes the conference usa baseball tournament. I find just hoping for that to be distasteful this deep into a coach's tenure.
