Delmonico had some great teams back in the early to mid 90s and had crowds of 4 to 5k on a regular basis. Delmonico got complacent and then had a one good season every 4 years, even then, they were just okay in regular season and got hot in the postseason so fans didn't even know they were good. Todd Raleigh was an even worse coach than Dooley. Both Delmonico and Raleigh have not been paid to coach another college baseball team since they left Tennessee. Serrano should get it turned around, however, I wish he would have blown the roster up in year 1 instead of year 2.

Tennessee isn't a baseball school. There is a serious lack of enthusiasm for the sport, but if Serrano can build a winner that will change. He inherited a horrible situation in a the most competitive conference. It will take time to rebuild.

No one cares is the simple answer.

It was there in the early to mid 90s. After that, Delmonico would field an NCAA team once every 4 years so the fans abandoned this strategy over the course of the last 15 years. so even when they were good in the 2001 and the 2005 CWS years, the fans didn't really care or know that they were good.

Not really. The best it could ever be is an extremely distant third behind football and men's basketball.

I forgot they were a women's basketball school. Everything else sucks
