He's right. There are probably twenty programs in the country that can be said about and we are definitely one of them.
With that said, I'd dare say we have probably established ourselves as one of the Top 10 NCAA baseball programs of all time.
Anyone care to take a shot at naming all 10 and in what order?
Let's begin with SoCal, agreed. Then Texas. Those would have to be 1 & 2 with almost no room for contention.
So ...
1 - So Cal
2 - Texas
Then, from there, in my opinion ...
3 - ASU
4 - AZ
5 - CSF
6 - Miami
7 - LSU
8 - SCAR
9 - Stanford
10 - FSU

The So.Cal program is kind of crazy. They had such a dominate run. Have twice as many titles (12) as the #2 (LSU and Texas with 6) but then they completely fell off the map and have been off it for decades.
Kind of sucks. As great our program is it has been on the cusp of being even greater. We've been to the CWS finals 6 times, the same as LSU, and although 2 titles is great.. LSU is an outstanding 6-0 in the CWS finals. Which, by the way, I think Texas should be somewhere on that list with 6 titles.
eta: Also, checking wiki Texas has the most CWS wins of all-time, although their win % is less than .600, well behind So.Cal's and even ours. In fact, among the top 10 CWS wins team we have one of the higher win % in Omaha.
With that said I can understand not having them as high on the list, mainly because their success as a program is relatively recent.

Great list, but I have to rank LSU and their 6 titles no lower than 3-4.
