Pretty crazy no #2 seeds made it. Our bats got cold, but a lot of #3's got in, a different region could have suited us better.

Also, how about Evansville advancing, will definitely be pulling for them.

So when do we start charging admission for baseball like most of the schools in the Big Ten and across the country? If the new rule is that athletes share in gate revenue, I would think the baseball players would be all for it. Would people avoid going to games if the price of admission was, say, $9 a seat?

I can’t speak for the few other fans that show up in terrible spring baseball weather, but I wouldn’t bother going as much if I had to pay to get in.

You’d be surprised how many people swing by with their family for a couple innings, and then head out when the kids start complaining about the cold or get bored.
