Since it looks like college sports is heading toward 'pay to play', who really knows what will happen? The term 'student athlete' will immediately be obsolete. Recruiting will take an unheard of direction. Will it end up being who pays the most; a bidding war, if you will? We never could offer the scholarships needed to compete with a lot of other teams in baseball. With 'pay to play', will Bama have the money necessary to buy the more talented players?
Even though the revenue sharing between schools doesn't start until fall of next year, I believe the 'pay for pay' will begin this year. If that's the case, let's hope Bama has Vaughn loaded for bear.
BTW, all this just scares the heck out of me.
Baseball is one of the programs "pay for play" will help us level the playing field. NCAA rules allow 11.5 scholarships. They can be given as a whole scholarship or divided into 25% scholarships to make them go further. A baseball team roster is over 30 players. They carry 12-15 pitchers alone. Bama and Auburn have always been at a disadvantage. States with lottery's and casino's offer scholarship assistance if a student graduates high school with good grades. SEC baseball teams use this to offer scholarships to top players and make those 11.5 scholarships go a long way. Alabama does not have this option. The state of Alabama is way behind the times in helping kids go to college without piling up a mountain of debt. This is what I'm hoping for too, pmull. It is uncharted territory though, so will Bama come up with the needed funds to make this happen? The fact that they have made a profit every year (mostly due to football) tells me that they should, but we'll see.

Howdy folks. I took off work on Friday last week and Tuesday of this week because Dad's wife, technically my step-mother, passed away on Thursday. She is definitely in a much better place now I hope. She had old-timerz disease and it wasn't kind to her...
I hope you are all doing well...
NALT, so very sorry to hear about your stepmother. Prayers for your family, buddy.

Bama gets the #3 seed in the Tallahassee region. They will play UCF in their first game . Game times haven't been set yet, or if they have, I haven't been able to find them. The other 2 in the regional are FSU and Stetson.
Edit: Bama and UCF play at 5:00 CDT on Friday.
Not that it matters but we are the #2 playing #3 UCF. The only advantage of being the #2 is we will be the home team. You are correct.
