That draft can hurt as well. If I recall properly, one year A&M had six pitchers drafted. Talk about wiping out your staff.
And then there is that wonderful scholarship allotment for baseball...

Nice omission of UH. Especially given that UH has quite arguably had a better program than TCU, Baylor and A&M over the last 6-8 years. UH has been closer to reaching Omaha than the aforementioned schools, and in both occasions lost in the super regionals to the eventual champion (Rice and Texas-Austin).
In either 2001 or 2003, I do not readily recall, UH lost 10-12 to the draft.
