Baseball Coaching Finalists

Can someone explain to me why one would leave UCLA to be a baseball coach at UND? Does he know how to get to weather.com and see what the climate for baseball is like here in North Dakota. :sad:

He's Al Gore's Buddy and has bought into Global Warming. :D

Or our facilities? And he is a Cal graduate. If he is hired I wouldn't expect to see him around very long. Just long enough to get "Head Coach" on his resume.

But who knows what the future holds. Maybe he will build UND into a baseball dynasty if he is hired. :D

Actually, he coached the Beetles of the Northwoods League right here in Alexandria for a couple of years so he's very familiar with the weather.

Not quite the correct topic, but will post it anyway. :D

Here are the superregional series:

Wichita and Palo Alto (Stanford) are within about 0.2 degrees of latitude (with Wichita being further north).

Wichita is further south than the southernmost Big Te(leve)n school (Illinois: Urbana-Champaigne).

Basically, if you're above the latitude of the Mason-Dixon line ... y'all ain't playin' for an NCAA baseball champ-een-ship. :)
