Good interview on MVP ’06 NCAA Baseball and college baseball in general.

Horns receives 8 of 10 first place votes.

MVP 06 NCAA Baseball comes out this week and IGN has up the first review of the game. The dynasty mode is what I was looking forward to the most and it sounds like they got it right, including year-round recruiting. Hopefully it proves as addicting as recruiting in NCAA Football.

Looks pretty good graphically, the “Load and Fire” batting system sounds like a cool idea, ESPN integration including live updates from ESPN Radio thanks to Xbox Live, as well as online play all make it sound like a must-have if you’re at all interested in college baseball. Plus, it’s got a Longhorn on the cover (David Maroul if I’m not mistaken) and is only at $29.99.

The game hits stores Wednesday. I’ll definitely be picking up a copy and posting my thoughts on the game here as soon as I can.

It’s a shame he couldn’t keep his grades up, hope he succeeds and gets a degree.

“Today, he would retire if he had to make the decision.”

Lots of props for the football, baseball, basketball, facilities, & DeLoss Dodds.

Horns pull in several of the state’s top players, let’s hope they end up in school.

He runs away with it, getting 15 first place votes.
