We had Marshall Henderson. With that alone it put people in the stands. We also went to the tournament last year. Where did you go?


We have almost 50 conference titles and 8 national championships. What do you have?

It's also not even my favorite sport.

Yes, but it's more noticeable at 1 sport schools.

I haven't watched a Lady Vols game in years.

For the most part you are correct, Lady Vols fans and Tennessee fans are not the same group of people.

Lady Vols fans have a huge inferiority complex and represent a very, very different segment of the population. Not many of the same people you see in Neyland or at VOLS games.

We're not a one sport school. We're ranked in most sports.

Baseball is my favorite sport, and I love college baseball, but right now there are only two major sports. Sure it's big in the SEC, but not everywhere and I would think that would be a requirement for a major sport. In some places the third sport is lacrosse, others it's hockey or women's basketball. Don't know how you have three major sports when there is no consensus on what the third sport is.

But to play along:

Alabama

Football: 23
Basketball: 7 regular season, 6 tournament
Baseball: 14 combined regular season/tournament

I don't know much about your fanbase. The people that were there spanned all races, ages, and sexes though.

I was the only Kentucky fan in my section and they did not appreciate my gift of song.

Louisiana State University is not the end all, be all of college athletics. College baseball just isn't that exciting because most elite players go pro out of high school.

C'mon, RG. You're better than that.

The University of Kentucky doesn't produce Bourbon.

He said college baseball isn't a major sport. I put up pictures of several programs that obviously care a lot about baseball.
