K-State is losing to BYU today 11-2 in the 7th, BYU is not even .500 on the season, WTF!

Revenge.  They are obviously pumped.

Revenge is a drink best served caffeine free.

Wow, am I still allowed to laugh at this if I see it 4 days after?

NOT HOSTING A REGIONAL! 

[sonofdaxjones]

If we make the NCAA tourney and do well, we're going to have to give Hill and the staff another pay raise, and we're probably going to have to invest some more money into the baseball facilities as part of the deal.   We'll probably have to add another 1000 seats, and since I am always thinking about this stuff.  We should go ahead and move the large videoboard from the football Stadium over to TFS, and then put in an even bigger videoboard in the football stadium so we can move back up in the Big 12 godzillatron in your football stadium rankings.

Does baseball turn a profit? or at least lately? How much money invested is worth the time?

[sonofdaxjones]

Well I should add that in my world, millions of dollars of stuff would be happening to the money sports stuff . . . you know, football getting an even bigger videoboard so baseball gets the old South end big videoboard . . . trickle down.

Tointon seats like 3500, doesn't it?  It would be fine for one of the 16 regionals but we would probably never hold a super regional.  You might be surprised how small and not nice the vast majority of college baseball venues are.  Plus, some the really nice one like OSU, Ark, Bama, etc aren't even in the running for regionals a lot of the time.  Look at some of the regional sites over the last few years, several are not as nice or big as KSU's.

[sonofdaxjones]

I know.  I've seen a number of college baseball parks, and you're right many of them are not as nice or not that much nicer than what TFS.   Some are a lot nicer. 

TFS only has about 2,000 permenant seats, I'd like to see that raised to 3,000 and a new videoboard.  After that, just make sure they are spending enough money to retain coaches who win.   They really don't need anything else beyond that, because they've already got a lot in comparison to many college programs.

There were over 4700 at the wichita state game with a lot of people standing and I seem to remember at some point a one seed did not get the regional because of lack of seats.

But toiton is in major need of a scoreboard that can display some kind of stats. It doesn't even display batting average or pitch speed come on

Baseball doesn't need anything.

We just got rough ridin' swept by MU. We should have won the 2nd game. Bullpen blew it in the bottom of the 9th and the bottom of the 10th.

officially ending any chance of winning the conf.  sux.  my hopes for this season were probably getting too high, was time for a setback. upper half conf finish and ncaa's were prob the preseason goal, will be happy with that.
