If baseball ever enacts a rule that requires pitchers to wear head gear to prevent line drives to the face... it gets removed from the "Sport List".
"non revenue" sports

Quite opposite of my take. Which is "if u can smoke a cigarette while doing it....it isnt a sport"
Wth? Fedora looks like bilboa baggins next to a giant
Wow! I knew UNC had the most, but I didn't know there was that big of a difference. I feel bad for the other schools... well, not really. University of National Champions!
I would imagine Hokies are too...which plum tickles me to death.
Maybe they should win a football championship after WWII then (1976 aside); you know, when it's actually difficult to win one. Shit, even Maryland won one back in the old days.
Hell they had one of top 3 qb's of all time along with all time great rb and couldnt win one
Better question: who cares?
Even with "1" on that graphic, they'd still look pretty lousy.
I disagree. Way back when in my first job after college I worked for a proud and active VT alum. One time we went into U Hall and he saw the handful of NCAA awards that UVA had then (1994). His comment was "look at all those national trophies- hardly fair that one school has so many". I told him I would never take him to Chapel Hill.
Schools like Moo and VT long for national championships with every ounce of their being.
Right. The only reason they say they don't care is because they ain't got none.
I disagree with both of you. People really don't care. For most fans, it's a college football or basketball title or bust. All the women's soccer titles in the world don't matter.
You've obviously never met a USCjr fan then, because they won't shut the **** up about winning back-to-back baseball titles.
Valid; you got me there.
I know too many SCar fans. It's bad for my intelligence.
Do UGA fans brag about having a women's gymnastics dynasty? Serious question, 'cause they're pretty good.
They don't brag necessarily, but they support the hell out of the Gym Dawgs program. Gymnastics meets are a much bigger "must-attend" event on campus than men's basketball games. Yes, you read my post correctly.
Kenny Selmon took third in 400m hurdles at the NCAA tournament. Earned invite to Olympic trials in July.
Not really. At certain schools, there are "non revenue" sports that transcend the trend and draw big support. Gymnastics at UGA, women's soccer at UNC, women's basketball at UConn, Maryland and Syracuse men's lacrosse, etc.
So if all of a sudden moo started tearing up the non-revenue sport circuit and winning national championships, they wouldn't care? I bet they'd start caring. And I bet that goes with all schools who suddenly turned into winners.
Not that hard to understand, guys. A school who is exceptionally good at one NR sport usually has a big following for that sport. But they don't care about the other NR sports.
Or they're Carolina and are excellent at all NR sports but don't attend any games of any sport. UNC has sorry fans in terms of attendance, regardless of sport.

I don't see how you can reasonably make this assertion without some facts to support your statement. What is attendance like at Stanford NR events? Notre Dame? Michigan? You're making a sweeping generalization that might hold true some places you've been but isn't necessarily the case elsewhere.
So about Roy's recruiting- do we think he can find a chef to make sure Meeks gets the calories he needs?
This seems like a trap
Lol, I was curious. I seem to remember they've got over 100 titles but that may be innacurate.
Sheeesh. Can you imagine how arrogant our arses would be if UNC had that many, lol.
