Baseball Team vs Michigan

Howdy Hawkeyes,

Since one or two of your mass readership may be interested in the baseball program, I offer you two links. 

First from BigTen.org:  Justin Toole is awesome.  Basically, despite Iowa's horrible prospect for finishing the year, competing only with Northwestern and Michigan State for the bottom the conference, Justin Toole is one hell of a great player.

Second, since I cover Michigan Baseball, I put out my preview of Iowa for the weekend.  I think the Hawkeyes have a chance to take a game from us, probably the Saturday game.  Michigan has made meh pitchers look brilliant of late, so yeah.  Hopefully the weather holds out. 

Good luck this weekend, and please please please don't upset us... I wouldn't like that.

We have a baseball team?

I thought they outlawed college baseball in Iowa.

Sure we have a team

We just don’t have a good team. Judging by the basketball team right now, though, we may have to start paying attention.

Doesn't UNI still have a team through this year?

I can’t remember when the program is officially dead.

And I always forget about Drake in everything except men’s hoops.

UNI gave their coach an ultimatum

raise $3 million this year and something like 12 million over the next 3 years and you can stay… but we the university aren’t helping. (im generalizing the numbers, but i don’t think i’m too far off. i dont care enough to look it up.)

It was 1.2

million, by the middle of April.

yeah, apparently they are around 248K so far. not looking good.

can’t be easy for the coach to raise money AND coach at the same time.

Well thanks

Even though my virus scan popped up going to your site it was a good read. Something that I cant say when it comes to any Iowa publication “covering” UI baseball.
