Let me start from the beginning: First, the dinosaurs ruled the earth, then they all got fat and died and turned into oil, then... no, that's too far back.

It's a game where you hit a ball and then run around some bases.

 

Strictly professional & youth/Interscholastic.   They don't play it at the collegiate level.

Need to get fans for Football so they can expand that stadium 

They had 8,000 people there when we played them. I don't think they will be needing an expansion anytime soon. I'd feel bad for them, but I can't. I'm still real frustrated about that loss we took to them, and I know others are too.

SO.....how many C USA schools have baseball an we don’t?  It’s time to start a non for profit just for baseball!  I’m in...are you?

 

Go to CUSA website, look up baseball standings from last season and see who's missing (besides us).  From (faulty) memory, I don't think UTEP plays baseball either.

Your memory is correct.  The only schools without baseball are North Texas and UTEP.

North Texas needs to start the trend in the Lone Star State and add D-1 lacrosse! You've got a beautiful new soccer stadium waiting!

I just suggested adding lacrosse and no down votes? Are we that mad at football right now?
