lhp,
I am very familiar with all the teams in the Big South Conference.
High Point is making a genuine effort to upgrade their program - but the fact of the matter is - IMO - the Big South is in trouble.
If Coastal leaves - and with Winthrop headed for a few years of rebuilding after losing key seniors and draft pick juniors and coaches - you only have Birmingham left.
I watched a ton of Big South games this year - and as far as D-1 baseball goes - the quality was generally very poor.
IMO - The bright side of this is that alot of opportunities exist for talented players who are interested in Big South schools.
Good luck with your decisions.
