Also I think these announcers are confused. As far as I know to be draft eligible as a sophomore you have to be 21 by draft day. They said Miller is eligible this year but he doesn't turn 21 till July and draft in June 12. Am I missing something?

Place looks about as full as I've ever seen it (which obviously isn't uncommon) including the 'expensive seats' behind home plate that you have to have a specific ticket for! Long shot view confirms every seat full pretty much.

Curtis Jones in crowd tonight. Had heard he was still in Bloomington (players are usually allowed to go home right now if they want).

 

I've seen reports from others that most of the team was staying in B'town for the summer rather than going home.  IMO that's nothing but a huge positive for CAM that they want to buy into his system.

It's pretty full. A few seats here and there with plenty standing and out in the grass in right. CuJo and De'Ron Davis at the game too.
