I watched with great happiness Oregon State win the National Championship in baseball.

Now, I'm not sure exactly what role an assistant athletic director has on the baseball team, but you get the feeling he's got to be something of a main cog in an athletic machine.

No northern-based team had won the College World Series in 40 years. This is a major-league accomplishment put out by an athletic program that has had a complete revival and is now, in my opinion, one of the best programs in the country.

You wonder- if only Stanton hadn't driven him out!

Granted, ETSU would have been a stepping stone for him and maybe he would have moved on, but you get the feeling he'd be on the ball!
