    Nice. I have to admit, with basketball off to its slow start, baseball season couldn't come any sooner.

      I figured ASU would be in the top 2 based on their amount of all americans.

            I thought Travis moved on, and is a head coach somewhere. Am I wrong?

                Looks like a down year for Nebraska? I bet their fans get tired of a little private school named Creighton beating them at everything.

                    They've been good for so many years that it's a shock not to see them on the list. Must be a rebuilding year at Arkansas.

                        Yeah, it is definitely a rebuilding year.

                        I'm excited about the freshmen we have on campus, though, and the class we just signed.

                          What happened?

                          How did VanHorn let this take place?
                          Let's hope he can hit a D-1 Curve ball!

                            Our weekend rotation was all juniors and they all got drafted in the first two rounds. We had a couple of other juniors leave early, and a couple of seniors who were four year starters who we have to replace.

                            I don't know that DVH let anything "take place." Our program isn't the dregs of college baseball, we just have too many question marks to be ranked in the top 25.

                              The very same thing is likely to happen to WSU after this season. We will lose Dirks, Weber, Womack, Musgrave and Hill to graduation and will likely lose Shafer, Capra, Gillaspie and Workman in the draft. If WSU does lose that much firepower it is very unlikely to see us in next year's preseason top 25. It is a transition that every major college goes through every few years, but programs like Arkansas & WSU are lucky enough to be able to reload instead of rebuilding.
