valpotx, I always get a chuckle when you share your various insights about all-things Butler sports, especially baseball.  I thought you would enjoy seeing that the Atlantic 10 Pre-Season Baseball Coaches Poll came out today, and Butler is ranked 14th out of 15 teams by the A-10 baseball coaches.  The link is below for your reading pleasure.......   ;D

I would say that is accurate.  I played with a few guys on Butler's team the last 2 summers of my college years when I stayed in IN, and they were pretty good.  However, their team is generally not that great overall.  The funds definitely go to their basketball team, even more so than at Valpo.

What they are about to do travel-wise, definitely was not a positive of the Mid-Con.
