ESPN rolls usually with whatever setup the home team provides. They will provide more for a national broadcast on an ESPN channel. Stanford has had the same crappy stream for over 20 years. They usually have students for announcers. They were a baseball power for years and have all the money in the world. It should be an embarrassment to them. Most baseball big time schools have fixed camera sites in place and it's no big deal. Just get some announcers or use the home team radio feed.

Iowa also has student play play crew, Nebraska does Big Red radio which is pretty slick and close to mainstream college. You know who doesn't do college radio. Washington.
March 15Mar 15 Author 2 run bomb and Stanford is up 6-1 on Duke, looking to win the series today. Maybe joining the ACC will juice Cal and Stanford's rpi enough to help revitalize west coast baseball

March 17Mar 17 Louisville takes 2/3 from #6 North Carolina this weekend. #2 Tennessee sweeps #7 Florida Oklahoma State and West Virginia were only able to play one this weekend, a 8-6 WVU win. Texas should move up two spots in D1 poll
March 17Mar 17 RPI through the weekend https://www.ncaa.com/rankings/baseball/d1/rpi Tennessee up to #1 My beloved UTRGV falls to #2 despite remaining undefeated in conference play Notre Dame BIG movers from 24 up to 3 after losing 2/3 away to Clemson? Color me confused, they have a loss to North Florida, were swept by Wake Forest, and lost 2/3 to Clemson Texas up to 10 Other notables: LSU up to 58 from 74 Miss St at 85 A&M up to 118 from 142 Wow, UVA down at 122 Texas St at 175 (makes that A&M loss seem even more embarrassing) SEC bottom dweller is Mizzou at #222 up from #247 SEC has 5 of the top 10 and 11 of the top 25
March 17Mar 17 My buddy that's the skipper at Georgia State has them at 15-6 and 3-0 in conference. Up to 81 in the RPI after a pretty weak non conference weekend slate. They've played Georgia twice and blown 4 run leads in the 6th inning both times to get whopped. The difference in bullpen, especially in middle relief, is pretty big. They also lost a game to Georgia Tech in the 9th inning. Other than that clubbing baby seals and now sweeping South Alabama to open conference. Sun belt looks like a 4 bid league- with 5 maybe slightly more likely than 3 to my eyes. I think they are better than the big 12 and big 10. Not 100% positive on that but somewhere between 3-5 in baseball as hardest conference. Adding Coastal Carolina and Southern Miss in the last couple years have moved the Sun Belt from a mid major to a high major (clearly way behind SEC and ACC) but on par or better than anyone else imo conference wise.

March 18Mar 18 Good for him. Hopefully he gets the support there he needs to make Rice baseball respectable again.
March 18Mar 18 Wow… Pierce is taking over immediately, going to be coaching this weekend against Florida Atlantic. At 4-16 it can’t get much worse and at least lets him get a first hand look at just how bad it is Edited March 18Mar 18 by chase25

March 18Mar 18 These last few posts are very confusing to say the least. I do know that the combined records of the two teams in question are 12-27.

March 18Mar 18 Yep, lot of chances to lose more. I don't think it's Aggy anymore. Five losses in a row, two by run rule, the one mentioned by App State and the mighty Campbell Camels, who are also 8-11.
