I can tell you this. Arkansas, Ole Miss, and South Carolina were all 3 worse than MSU when Vann took over and they have all surpassed Mississippi State. There maybe a ceiling here, but 12th out of 13th consistently isn't it.
And it's not just the SEC. Her Regional record is abysmal which is teams outside the SEC.
Yes we'll make the NCAAs. But we won't host and have never come close to hosting. We just made our brand new softball stadium 3 years ago and we aren't hosting like Tennis or even soccer has done this year(along with the obvious baseball and women's basketball).
I just don't think finishing 2nd to last in the SEC consistently is the best MSU can do in any sport.

I'm not defending the coach on this point at all. We definitely shouldn't be any worse than Arkansas and Ole Miss. I'm just not familiar with Mississippi's softball talent as a state compared to say Alabama, Georgia, South Carolina and Florida. I know that those states have tremendous softball talent, and travel ball in those states for softball is pretty big.
