With the way our collective DHs have performed, why not just throw Wilmsmeyer out there and at least have our best trio of defensive outfielders? 100% agree with the outfield lineup. Wilmsmeyer in center is a must. Defense and pitching will be what wins us a championship if that happens. 3
Women Razorback sports / Re: Nia CarterLast post by hawg1221 - Today at 08:45:15 amRemember... this is Halverson's 2nd season. She absolutely struggled last year, especially at the beginning. This is Carter's first year. I think their first years are pretty similar. Now this is on memory. I didn't look up stats.

Could that be the wagner hold up? Seeing what he does before deciding? I'm also wondering on this one since I've seen a lot of Kentucky comments on wanting this guy hardcore. I'm not saying we need a second Richmond on the team just to beat Kentucky from getting him, but I wouldn't be opposed to having a really talented player on our team that also continues the trend of being one that Kentucky really wanted. 5
Monday Morning Quarterback / Re: Looks like smaller confere...Last post by Salty spork - Today at 08:35:16 amQuote from: SwineFusion on Today at 08:28:15 amThere are 143 Division I men's swimming programs; each can offer up to 9.9 scholarships. So basically 1400 scholarships. Those scholies can be split, just as in baseball or track, so there are more than 1400 male swimmers, but it's not a huge number. Ten of the 14 current SEC schools have men's swimming; of the noobs, Texass does, Mobilehoma doesn't.Yeah, that's not many. Assuming some redshirting, it means roughly 300 freshmen per year, get paid to swim in college. My kid has a chance to be pretty good, but not top 300 good. 6

Monday Morning Quarterback / Re: Looks like smaller confere...Last post by Hog66 - Today at 08:32:33 amMy daughter sang her way through college. With a combination of scholarships and a stipend she was paid for singing in the university's choirs I paid nothing for her education. Those opportunities are similar to what most smaller schools do for minor sports. They'll have a handful getting a stipend. The swim guy will work as a lifeguard at the university's pool. The soccer girl will tutor and do light clerical work around the coaches offices.
And most schools don't have a dedicated coach for those sports. That coach does work with and teach "regular " students. For most schools the minor sports will continue as they always have. The G-5 school's will have to find another source of revenue if they want to continue with their minor sports programs. But for 90% or more of schools those sports are not programs they're already clubs with a couple of school sponsored ringers here and there. The middle group of schools will have some hard decisions to make for sure. 8

Monday Morning Quarterback / Re: Looks like smaller confere...Last post by SwineFusion - Today at 08:28:15 amQuote from: Salty spork on Today at 07:07:07 amIdk about free. But definitely should be within reach. There are 143 Division I men's swimming programs; each can offer up to 9.9 scholarships. So basically 1400 scholarships. Those scholies can be split, just as in baseball or track, so there are more than 1400 male swimmers, but it's not a huge number. Ten of the 14 current SEC schools have men's swimming; of the noobs, Texass does, Mobilehoma doesn't. There are 200 D-I women's swimming programs with a scholarship limit of 14; again those are split between athletes as well. There are 12 current SEC women's programs. Again Texas does, OU doesn't. |
