I would "guess" that there are some D3 programs that are actually better than some D1 programs in terms of BASEBALL. Yeah, Princeton is a D1. And, it's the best education that anyone could ever dream for their child. And, the Princeton baseball program is fine. But, I would "guess" that there's some D3 baseball programs that are heads and shoulders above that of Princeton JUST FOR A BASEBALL PERSPECTIVE.

Well, let's see, in 2016 there were 7 Princeton guys who appeared in the majors that year (4 this past year, but 2016 was a high water mark for them): Chris Young, Ross Ohlendorf, Matt Bowman, David Hale, Danny Bowman, Will Venable, and John Ryan Murphy. Is there a D3 program that does that? In the last three years Princeton's RPI has been 123, 117, 187, and 269, so the average is 174 . . . out of 300 D1 baseball programs. Are there D3 programs better than 125 D1 programs?
