There is a great scene in Butch Cassidy and the Sundance kid. They are being chased by a posse and trying to figure out "who are those guys". Butch asks Sundance, "Who's the best Sheriff?" Sundance asked, "what do you mean, best? Toughest or easiest to bribe?"

Same with college baseball. Best in what way? Who will win the most? Best facilities? Best combo of acedemics and team? Best chance for your kid to play?

I don't think ranking colleges helps kids make a decision. So much depends on the kid's abilty, acedemics, goals, etc. Each family has to try to find the right fit for their kid. There are a lot of good choices in Illinois.
