NET games in red

BTN games in blue

NET/BTN games in power-cat puke purple
Thought I'd get this up since we're discussing non-con and conference schedules. I did overlook that we don't play Michigan State during conference play, which could hinder us if Michigan State is as they are projected to be (read: one of top three teams in the conference).

*04/11/2012: Updated with info from BTN that they're going to broadcast the Cal State Bakersfield game originally for NET, but flagged in purple in case that info was an error on their part.

The Big 10 Network announced their baseball broadcast schedule on Feb. 11th last season, so expect a blurb any day now :cheers
Thanks for the heads up.
2/11 last year was the week before opening day, so I'm not sure what they're waiting for this year; fwiw last year BTN had 30 games on TV and 50 more online according to this article: http://collegebaseball360.com/2011/02/11/big-ten-network-2011-college-baseball-schedule/

Scott Boras Presents plan for 25 schollies

ANAHEIM, Calif. — Scott Boras, the most powerful agent in sports, gave a riveting presentation at the American Baseball Coaches Association Convention in Anaheim on how every NCAA Division I baseball program can fund 25 full scholarships for athletes. He firmly believes that Major League baseball would be interested in listening to a plan to pump money into these programs for additional scholarships since revenue on the professional level has shot up from $400 million in 1980 to over $8 billion during the past year. Currently NCAA Division I baseball programs can give a maximum of 11.7 scholarships.

Damn Title IX and its killing of Wisconsin Baseball.

Bucky, you and the rest of the Wisconsinites (is that a word?) are welcome to join Husker Nation in rooting for the Big Red in Big 10 baseball... Not suggesting you jump on the husker bandwagon in sports the Wisconsin Red games in but lets be honest, Red is Red and by any definition, hard to ignore. So.. come on Whisky red, join the Husker red baseball bandwagon!!

As for the husker baseball season. When I reflect back on the optimism that existed at the start of last season I find myself asking why their should be less this season. The truth as I see it, the sker's are better conditioned with a better pitching coach, a returning former sker's defensive stud now coaching his philosophies to our young studs and a head coach that can light a fire under the seat of even the strongest of skeptics. I see the sker's winning no less then 44 games this year. I see Erstad as being the Big's coach of the year. I see Silva staying for 3 years at most as the sker's program is his final stepping stone to a head coaching position and before his departure, I see him as becoming the biggest factor in rejuvenating a pitching staff that has talent but lacked confidence.

I dare anyone to tell me why my projections are to high. Why?

  • Given the schedule Erstad inherited (one that he isn't at all happy with)
  • the new attitude that is rather obvious through interviews the media has shared
  • the leaving it all on the field competition that has chased a couple players (ex: Logan)
  • the coaching staff's records at every location they've coached
  • and finally, this years motto "back to the ballpark"


I am totally amped for the season and find myself begging for more media insight. Seriously can't understand why the media hasn't taken this opportunity to gain more readers, viewers, followers?

Huskers will rule 2012 and our former sker's (now coaches, all of them) homecoming will be a huge success.

 
I'm with you Hacker. I think it can be an outstanding season. My only dispute to your predictions possibly being high is this, TALENT. I think we have some talent. But I think that one of the major things from the previous regime was that lack of talent that was brought here. I think there were definitely guys that were talented, but i also think that the staff looked for to many diamonds in the rough and the lack of coaches being able to get the full potential out of them was a bigger issue. I think Erstad will be able to coach these guys up.
