Considering our entire style of play is changing under Raleigh, its borderline impossible to project how things are going to turn out offensively. It will be a totally different mindset at the plate.
We have about as much depth in our pitching staff as the kiddy pool, and little experience as well, so I wouldn't say a last place prediction is unreasonable. Although, we do have one of the best mound coaches.
I'm starting to believe with all the style changes Raleigh wants to implement, it might take two or three years before UT even sniffs the national level again. However, I'm willing to wait.
I'm willing to bet after having a conversation with Mr. Raleigh that Tennessee finishes no worse than 3rd in the East
