I actually stumbled onto this post accidentally but felt the need to respond. I am the Vice President of the club this year and there are a few reasons actually. The first is lack of participation and commitment. We have about 10 guys that consistently come out to practice every night, and 10 barely fields a team, let alone a good one. The second is lack of knowledge about our baseball team. We set up booths in the SUB, post fliers around campus, have articles about us in the Arbiter, but that doesn't affect our roster size. Third, lack of funding. We are completely strapped for cash that we will barely have enough this year to travel and buy uniforms, as we dont have enough. We ask for donations and fundraise constantly but it hardly adds up to what we need. We get some money from the REC based upon how much we raise, but that's all we get from the school. However, after the team folded 3 years ago we have brought new leadership in the last 2 years, and we are definitely on our way to bigger and better things for this program, and hopefully someday we will become a Division 1 program. But for now, we have to start at the bottom of the barrel and show that we are making strides towards bigger and better things.

Thanks, Steven. We here at OBNUG are behind your efforts (anything really to take away from any national attention that Fresno receives).

The program is on the upswing and this (2009) season looks to be a banner year!!!!!! Join us and enjoy America's pasttime! We have talent and true lovers of the game involved in the program, all invaluable to success! I am happy to be a part of it!!!!

How is it that with the Treasure Valley being such a baseball talent pool, that there is no drive for a team at Boise State. Cof I has a team, NNU and even Treas ure Valley CC used to have a team. What is UP? To have a team, we must need to start getting after it with the BSU athletic director.. I want BSU baseball.

Well, we have had a good seson to this point and are on the verge of clinching a spot in the Regional Playoffs! The Broncos have won 8 of the last 9 and travel to the University of Idaho for three this weekend. The final three regular season games will be held at the U of Montana on May 2-3. The tourney starts the 7th of May in La Grande, OR. Make plans to attend and support the team! We also play NNU there on 4/ 21 and 28. Watch for special coverage on Fox's Channel 12.
Go Broncos!
