    Baseball Cards off to good start 1-0

    Funkhouser seems to be pitching like a future 1st round draft choice. Don't know how tough the competition faced yesterday, but he seemed to be on his game with the strikeouts and limited walks.

    Lemonis hired as IU's coach

    U of L has been fortunate to keep the same, quality coaching staff. It really helps, though it's natural to have assistance leave for head coaching jobs. I feel the same way as you do. I wish Coach Lemonis the best; though going into the ACC it might be tough replacing him. With IU a rival...

    College Baseball Coaching Salaries...

    "Who makes money on baseball??..." That's a good question, especially where football and basketball normally would generate revenue for other sports. Though I do not have total revenue numbers, I wonder if any of these school in the top ten for attendance would start to come close to making...

    15 MLB Draft picks in the last two seasons

    "And reportedly, that's with 11+ scholarships per year..." Zipp, I know that you very knowledgeable, but I was a little uncertain about your post. NCAA scholarships can be confusing. I hope this might be helpful. Each level of college baseball (Division I, Division II, Division III, NAIA, and...

    Louisiana Lafayette and us

    "Even though every team in Omaha can win it, match ups are a big thing. We start off with a very tough game that will be fueled like no other 1st rd because of the history but like was stated above, we are the only team to run through the NCAA without a loss so being hot at the right time...

    OK, time to get real

    How many games in one week could a team play in the winner's bracket before the best 2 out of 3 in the finals? In the loser's bracket?

    If that Dan McDonnell guy keeps at it...

    "And you know that had to fire Kansas up knowing that UKay was saving their Ace for Louisville. It was a move that backfired big time." Hindsight can be easier than foresight, but deciding not to pitch Reed in the first game was a mistake, I think, in a variety of ways. I think that a team...

    Louisville Regional --- Omaha histories

    Go Cards!!!!! On twitter last night, U of K baseball posted that Kyle Cody will start the first game for U of K (and save Reed for game 2). It's a tough call, especially to change the rotation that you've been using. Overlook the first game and lose it makes it difficult coming out of the...
