It was a repeat of 2013. State had about 25K fans and UCLA a couple of hundred. Yet they came out on top.
Hard to understand why Florida does not support its excellent baseball team any better than it does.
and don't give me the excuse that you have other things to do.
Gainesville is close to nothing and the University is the town so fan support should be much higher. Your players deserve it.

I honestly think Florida would have a bigger turn out for baseball if they renovated their stadium. Make it more like Box, Baum, Swayze or State, and add in some baseball traditions. Florida has the shittiest ballpark for how good of a program they have. I think a renovation or just building an entire new park would be a great start.

Because literally on one cares about college baseball. Only LSU fans care about this miche sport because of the 90s. And that infected the SEC rant to pretend like they care. I've never met anyone in real like that watches it.

Exactly.
Louisiana and Mississippi are the only states that do.

Dunno about their support but it has to be nice to have a coach who can maximize his players. Btw get some new unis guys that shite yal wear is beneath your program.

quote:I've mentioned it many times. UF as well as most Florida schools and professional teams do not have the national fan base support in most sports, not juse baseball. We do not travel well. We're very regional. Most of our success has been 1980's on so we don't have the grandma and great grandpa alumni. It takes decades of success to build great fan base support like UK bastball or Steelers football.
I think it was a serious question
Throw in the fact that a lot of people from Florida are from somewhere else and the people who are the most successful usually leaves the state to have success. The state of Florida also has a lot of people at or below the poverty line.
One knock I've had on the administration is that they have not done enough to create a national fanbase. They should be taking advantage of past success to spread the program. Maybe 1 day soon

Also realize that it is not easy traveling in and out of Gville. A plane ticket will always cost you an arm and a leg, unless you drive several hours to Orlando. And it is a pretty long drive from Gville to anywhere. The stretch along I10 through Tallacrappy to Mobile takes hours and is God awful. That's a tough haul.
