re: How can you even make the case that college baseball is part of a "Big 3"?

Some of you are taking this way too personally. Dale isn't saying you should stop caring about baseball. It looks like some of y'all's schools have great atmospheres for college baseball games but just because y'all like it doesn't mean its anywhere close to football or men's basketball in terms of national popularity.
This guy gets it.
The "Frozen Four" is a bigger deal than the CWS to a portion of the country.
Soccer is the most popular sport world wide.
College Baseball as a southern sport with a larger emphasis/following in the Southern states, likely due to a lack of MLB teams in the region.

Completely true. Those sports are totally on another level. College baseball is growing though and ESPN is starting to show more and more games. You see the stadiums getting nicer and things like that.
College baseball has a challenge though with talented high schoolers leaving straight for the pros and going to the minor leagues. The baseball draft seems to have 100 rounds.
Also, the northern half of the country hasn't even started their 4-month long process of thawing out their buttholes from the winter when college baseball starts. Sorry for using scientific terminology there...
