Baseball America has Clemson as its last team in the NCAA field. That's pitiful.

Not saying that's a surprise. Saying it's pitiful our program is in the position to have to sit and wait for our fate.

If this isn't a wake up call to Clemson Baseball, what is ? It's embarrassing to someone who became a Tiger in 1963, graduated in 1967, remembering the great teams and players;George Sutton, Rusty Atkins, Eddy Barber, and later Teufel, Greene, Baker, Parker et all.

Agreed. Hopefully Leggett will step down and bring back Corbin.

He wouldn't with our resources. Our program has been on a downward spiral since Corbin left.

They have just as much money as any other SEC team. They can poney up with anyone.

Thanks for your insightful and generous correction. Have to keep closer eye on smartphone. Eddy and I used to play guitar together on F5 in 66-67?

Seven teams fighting for three spots per BA
May 24, 2014, 6:04 PM
|

Given the current number of at-large bids available, we see seven teams battling for the final three at-large spots. We’ll break down their resumes below, listed in order of RPI (per WarrenNolan.com’s updated RPI rankings):
Mercer: No. 43 in RPI, 3-0 top 50, 13-5 top 100, second place in A-Sun (No. 16 RPI conference), 0-2 in conference tournament, lost final two series, No. 150 SOS
Stanford: No. 45 in RPI, 9-15 top 50, 12-19 top 100, currently sixth place in Pac-12 (No. 4 RPI conference), one game behind fifth-plate USC with two left to play, No. 19 SOS
Clemson: No. 48 in RPI, 7-12 top 50, 14-17 top 100, fifth place in ACC, 2-1 in conference tournament, No. 41 SOS
UCF: No. 49 in RPI, 5-11 top 50, 10-12 top 100, second place in AAC (No. 7 RPI conference), 2-1 in AAC tournament (can reach championship if UConn beats Temple on Saturday), No. 50 SOS
Western Carolina: No. 51 in RPI, 2-5 top 50, 9-8 top 100, SoCon regular-season champion (No. 12 RPI conference), 0-2 in conference tournament, No. 157 SOS
Cal State Fullerton: No. 52 in RPI, 10-6 top 50, 15-17 top 100, locked into fourth place in Big West with one game left, No. 57 SOS
Illinois: No. 55 in RPI, 5-4 top 50, 9-7 top 100, third place in Big Ten (No. 10 RPI conference), 1-2 in conference tournament, No. 94 SOS
Out of that group, we’ll knock out Western Carolina, Illinois and Mercer. But Stanford,UCF, Clemson and Cal State Fullerton should not breathe easily, because as noted above, plenty of at-large bids could still disappear as conference tournament action unfolds. For now, those four teams are in.

In reality, we don't deserve to go.

Pretty sure it was implied that other programs are struggling like ours. The Bowden way of thinking.
