>>57. Connecticut - (2015 Ranking: 60). Jim Penders is one of the more underrated coaches in college baseball, and what he’s accomplished at UConn is remarkable considering some of the program’s constraints. The Huskies aren’t gifted from a facilities standpoint, but haven’t let that keep them from experiencing success. The Huskies made their biggest statement back in 2011 with a super regional appearance, but also have had success on the national stage since that point. For instance, UConn reached the NCAA tournament in 2013 before doing so again in 2016 with a 38-25 overall record. The Huskies had a strong postseason case this past season, but missed the field of 64 despite having an RPI of 38 and a 33-25 overall mark. While the Huskies may not have a premier facility, they do have a decent recruiting base, name recognition and a quality league to recruit to.<<
So far: Wichita State #100, Tulane #60, UCF #59, and USF#58
