7750-457: The Razorbacks 5–1 in Fayetteville , which was the Razorbacks' first game of the season. Arkansas lost 3–1 on June 2, and had to stave off elimination against North Carolina . The Tar Heels were eliminated, and Arkansas had another shot at the Shockers, who had lost to Florida State and was now fighting to remain in Omaha, as one more loss would eliminate them. Wichita State defeated Norm DeBriyn 's Razorbacks, 8–4, eliminating them. The finish

7875-407: The Razorbacks into an elimination game, beating them 5–3. Arkansas then faced No. 5 national seed Miami, and fell behind 2–0 when Jacob Heyward hit a 2-run shot off reliever Jackson Lowery, who had just been inserted for Keaton McKinney. The Razorbacks rallied twice to tie the game at 2–2 and 3–3, but lost 4–3 when Heyward hit a walk-off single. It was the first time since 2004 that they failed to win

8000-478: The Razorbacks on the national map. The Razorbacks won 49 games, lost 15, and finished second in the Southwest Conference (SWC) . The Hogs defeated George Washington , Florida , and Delaware twice to move out of the East Regional (played at Seminole Stadium in Tallahassee, Florida ). The Razorbacks then went to Omaha and defeated Pepperdine , 5–4 and an Arizona Wildcats club , with a young Terry Francona , 10–3. A match-up with SWC champion Texas loomed next for

8125-408: The Razorbacks score with a sacrifice fly . Scott Hode grounded out for out number three, and the rally fell short. The Gamecocks would win the championship by defeating Vanderbilt. Arkansas finished third in the SEC tournament. The Razorbacks began play in their home stadium in the Fayetteville Regional. Arkansas defeated Le Moyne first, but lost to Wichita State 4–1. The Razorbacks had not seen

8250-518: The Razorbacks. The Hogs had gone 1–4 against the Longhorns up to this point in the season. The Razorbacks prevailed, 9–4, and earned a contest with Cal State Fullerton for a championship. Texas was eliminated. Arkansas lost twice to the Titans, 13–10, and 2–1, to give the trophy to Cal State Fullerton. Freshman Kevin McReynolds was named to the all-tournament team as an outfielder, along with Steve Krueger at pitcher , Larry Wallace at shortstop , and Marc Brumble as an outfielder . Arkansas came into

8375-500: The South regional hot winning twelve straight games (last loss against fellow CWS team Mississippi State ), and winning the SWC tournament with the help of tourney- MVP Dave Patterson . A 20–13 victory over Eastern Kentucky started things off on the right foot for the Hogs. Wins against George Mason , hometown FSU , and Georgia Tech would push the Hogs to their second College World Series. Arkansas arrived in Omaha in as dramatic fashion as they left it. The Diamond Hogs defeated

8500-446: The U.S. Supreme Court ruled that the NCAA was not subject to that law, without reviewing the merits of the discrimination claim. Over the last two decades recruiting international athletes has become a growing trend among NCAA institutions. For example, most German athletes outside of Germany are based at US universities. For many European athletes, the American universities are the only option to pursue an academic and athletic career at

8625-572: The United States in 1852 when crews from Harvard and Yale universities met in a challenge race in the sport of rowing . As rowing remained the preeminent sport in the country into the late-1800s, many of the initial debates about collegiate athletic eligibility and purpose were settled through organizations like the Rowing Association of American Colleges and the Intercollegiate Rowing Association . As other sports emerged, notably football and basketball, many of these same concepts and standards were adopted. Football, in particular, began to emerge as

8750-477: The University Division/College Division split. Like with National Collegiate sports, schools that are otherwise members of Division III who compete in Division I for men's ice hockey are allowed to grant athletic scholarships for the sport. All sports used the National Collegiate format until 1957, when the NCAA was split into the University Division and College Division (which itself was split into Divisions II and III in 1973). The only sport that immediately saw

8875-510: The University of Oklahoma . (If the television contracts the NCAA had with ABC , CBS , and ESPN had remained in effect for the 1984 season, they would have generated some $ 73.6 million for the association and its members.) In 1999, the NCAA was sued for discriminating against female athletes under Title IX for systematically giving men in graduate school more waivers than a woman to participate in college sports. In National Collegiate Athletic Association v. Smith , 525 U.S. 459 (1999)

9000-461: The association did not govern women's athletics. Instead, the Association for Intercollegiate Athletics for Women (AIAW), with nearly 1,000 member schools, governed women's collegiate sports in the United States. The AIAW was in a vulnerable position that precipitated conflicts with the NCAA in the early-1980s. Following a one-year overlap in which both organizations staged women's championships,

9125-587: The athletes' schools (through rent-seeking ) at the expense of the athletes. Economists have subsequently characterized the NCAA as a cartel . In 2021, the Supreme Court of the United States unanimously ruled that some of these NCAA restrictions on student athletes are in violation of US antitrust law . The NCAA settled a lawsuit in May 2024 allowing member institutions to pay Division I athletes who have played since 2016. Intercollegiate sports began in

9250-591: The championship game. Notable players on the team include Billy Bates , Mike Brumley , Mike Capel , Roger Clemens , Jeff Hearron , Bruce Ruffin , Calvin Schiraldi , Kirk Killingsworth and Jose Tolentino . Texas won their fifth National Championship in school history by defeating South Carolina 12–6 in the championship game. Notable players on the team include Brad Halsey , Omar Quintanilla , and Huston Street . Texas won their sixth National Championship in school history by defeating Florida 4–2 and 6–2 in

9375-492: The championship round. Notable players on the team include Taylor Teagarden , Drew Stubbs , and David Maroul . On May 30, 2009, the Longhorns and Boston College played in the longest game in college-baseball history—a 25-inning game, during the NCAA Division I Baseball Championship regional tournament at Austin, Texas . The Longhorns—who were designated the visiting team despite playing on their home field—won, 3–2. The game lasted seven hours and three minutes. When

9500-514: The creation of a more attractive "product" to compete with other forms of entertainment – combined to make the plan reasonable. In September 1982, the district court found in favor of the plaintiffs, ruling that the plan violated antitrust laws. It enjoined the association from enforcing the contract. The NCAA appealed all the way to the United States Supreme Court , but lost in 1984 in a 7–2 ruling NCAA v. Board of Regents of

9625-562: The end of the 2024 season. As such, Texas is often considered to be one of the greatest programs in college baseball history. Former Longhorns who have gone on to success in Major League Baseball include Roger Clemens , Calvin Schiraldi , Burt Hooton , Keith Moreland , Spike Owen , Mark Petkovsek , Greg Swindell , Brandon Belt , and Huston Street . Texas hired first-year head coach Jim Schlossnagle away from rival Texas A&M on June 25, 2024. From 1997 to 2016,

9750-606: The first game of the championship series 4–1, but Oregon State completed a comeback 5–3 win in game two thanks in large part to a dropped foul ball by Arkansas with two outs in the 9th inning. The Oregon State batter hit a home run two pitches later to win the game, and the Beavers would win decisively in game three, 5-0. The game two loss is considered one of the most heart-breaking losses in program history.

9875-504: The first school to repeat as champions of the College World Series. Notable players on the team include: Charlie Gorin , Kal Segrist , and Murray Wall . Texas won their third national championship in school history by defeating South Carolina 5–1 in the championship game. Notable players on the team include Jim Gideon , Don Kainer , Keith Moreland , Mickey Reichenbach , and Richard Wortham . Texas won their fourth national championship in school history by defeating Alabama 3–2 in

10000-554: The first time since 2008 by defeating Texas Southern, Texas A&M and Indiana University in the NCAA Austin regional. They defeated Tennessee Tech in three games to advance to the 2018 College World Series. Texas fired Pierce on June 24, 2024. The Longhorns finished 2024 with loss to Louisiana-Lafayette at the College Station Regionals setting their 2024 record to 36-24. The team under Pierce finished with

10125-424: The game with a 22-game postseason win streak. A Dominic Ficociello RBI in the first inning gave Arkansas a 1–0 lead, as they never trailed, winning a 2–1 pitcher's duel. Stanek pitched six innings, allowing just one run on three hits. Reliever Barrett Astin pitched the final three innings allowing no runs, and just one hit. Arkansas was not expected to make it to the College World Series in 2015, especially after

10250-504: The game's only run and sending the Hogs to Omaha. Arkansas won their first game of the 2012 College World Series, an 8–1 victory over Kent State Golden Flashes . D. J. Baxendale pitched into the seventh inning, with Joe Serrano, Brian Anderson, Bo Bigham, and Jake Wise all collecting multiple hits. Two nights later the Razorbacks faced SEC foe and two-time defending champion the South Carolina Gamecocks , who came into

10375-561: The games in the 2015 Super Regional series against Missouri State set the all-time stadium attendance mark at 12,167. The first game of the South Carolina Super Regional series had 11, 722 in attendance making it the 3rd highest attended game in Baum stadium history. Baum stadium was voted top ballpark in collegiate baseball by Baseball America, 20 years after claiming the top spot in a 1998 poll. In 2007, Arkansas led

10500-476: The head coach. Except for a three-year period from 1943 to 1945, during which the team was led by assistant football coach Blair Cherry , Falk coached the team until 1967. Under Falk's guidance, the Longhorns won 20 Southwest Conference titles; the Longhorns won two conference titles under Cherry. Under Falk, Texas won its first two College World Series championships (in 1949 and 1950 ). The Longhorns won 434 collegiate games during his tenure. Falk retired after

10625-571: The infielders, allowing Bates to score and the Horns to move on, 8–7 in ten innings. The situation was oddly similar to the last time the Hogs reached the College World Series, except Texas was 4–1 against the Hogs in 1979 (including two SWC tournament wins), and Arkansas prevailed in the 1979 CWS match up. Freshman third baseman Jeff King and junior outfielder Ralph Kraus were named to the All-College World Series team. Arkansas

10750-435: The institutional members of the NCAA. Each institutional member has one representative: the president/CEO or a representative designated by him/her. Attendance by the actual president/CEO was low; less than 30%. Southern Methodist University President A. Kenneth Pye commented, "In too many cases, presidents have not only delegated responsibility, they have abdicated it." Many presidents designated their athletic director as

10875-435: The institutional representative, something Pye compared to "entrusting a chicken coop to the supervision of a wolf and a fox." Beginning around 1980, a group of college presidents thought there was a crisis of integrity in collegiate sports and discussed ways to transform athletics to match the academic model. The American Council on Education (ACE) proposed a presidential board empowered to veto NCAA membership actions, while

11000-505: The job but resigned after only one day. DeBriyn inherited a program that played at a dilapidated stadium at the Washington County Fairgrounds, and whose paperwork was contained in a single manila folder. He immediately set about upgrading the program. Within three years, he had the Razorbacks in the NCAA tournament for the first time in school history. He then persuaded athletic director Frank Broyles to build

11125-557: The last of the Shockers, though, and after a 10–7 win over Missouri, defeated them two times on June 6, 2004, to advance to the Super Regionals. Arkansas had to play Florida State twice to move on to Omaha , but the games were again at Baum Stadium . The Diamond Hogs prevailed, 7–4 and 4–2 and went on to Omaha. Arkansas was an eight seed in 2004, and for the fourth time in five Hog appearances, Arkansas' first game in Omaha

11250-423: The last three innings to win game 1, and Andrew Darr propelled the Hogs to the College World Series on his two-run walk-off double in the bottom of the ninth. The Razorbacks opened the College World Series in game 1 against #1 national seed Cal State Fullerton. Dallas Keuchel pitched well, with Zack Cox and Andy Wilkins both homering in a resounding 10–6 win. The win set a rematch with LSU, who had beaten Arkansas in

11375-619: The meeting in January. It was apparent that there was an open conflict between college presidents. The president of the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching Ernest L. Boyer summarized the situation: "There are presidents whose institutions are so deeply involved in athletics that their own institutional and personal futures hang in the balance. They feel they must resist such change because athletics are bigger than they are." The PC sponsored no legislation at

11500-439: The meeting. A survey of 138 Division I presidents indicated that athletic directors did control collegiate sports. Despite a moratorium on extending the season of any sport in 1985, the extension of basketball and hockey seasons were approved. Indiana University president John W. Ryan , outgoing chairman of the PC commented, "If the moratorium is vacated, it's being vacated not by the commission, but by this convention." Following

11625-407: The nation in attendance, with 8,069 attendees per game, over 700 more per game than second-place LSU . Mississippi State , another SEC school, was third with an average of 6,795 per game. Before Baum Stadium was built, the Razorbacks played on the original George Cole Field from 1975 to 1995, named for former all-conference quarterback , shortstop and athletic director George Cole . The field

11750-454: The need for full-time professional leadership. Walter Byers , previously an assistant sports information director, was named executive director in 1951. The Harvard Crimson described Byers as "power-mad," The New York Times said that Byers was "secretive, despotic, stubborn and ruthless," The Washington Post described him as a dictator, and others described him as a "petty tyrant." ” Byers wasted no time placing his stamp on

11875-428: The next inning, and Craig Cobb retired the Razorbacks to earn the save. The game was the third of the day to extend into extra innings. The Hogs then defeated Ole Miss and Tennessee by the counts of 4–3 and 4–1 respectively, before losing to South Carolina, 2–3. Arkansas went into the ninth down 3–0, and loaded the bases with no outs. Jake Dugger drove in a run with a single. Following a strikeout, Brett Hagedorn added to

12000-424: The records for most appearances in the College World Series (38), most individual CWS games won (88), most overall NCAA Tournament games won (258), and most NCAA tournament appearances (63); the second-place programs in these categories have 25 CWS appearances ( Miami ), 74 CWS game wins (Southern California), 207 overall NCAA Tournament wins ( Florida State ), and 60 NCAA tournament appearances (Florida State), as of

12125-607: The reforms which had resulted, Chancellor Henry MacCracken of New York University organized a meeting of 13 colleges and universities to initiate changes in football playing rules; at a follow-on meeting on December 28, 1905, in New York, 62 higher-education institutions became charter members of the Intercollegiate Athletic Association of the United States (IAAUS) . The IAAUS was officially established on March 31, 1906, and took its present name,

12250-541: The same time. Many of these students come to the US with high academic expectations and aspirations. In 2009, Simon Fraser University in Burnaby , British Columbia , Canada , became the NCAA's first non-US member institution, joining Division II. In 2018, Division II membership approved allowing schools from Mexico to apply for membership; CETYS of Tijuana , Baja California expressed significant interest in joining at

12375-646: The school's football coach, led the team. Four times, the team won a conference title, including one in the Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Association and three in the Southwestern Intercollegiate Athletic Association. The team played its home games in the first Clark Field during this time. In 1911, Billy Disch took over the reins of the program. Disch retired following the 1939 season. During this time, he led

12500-418: The session resumed, council members began criticizing the PC and quickly executed a parliamentary maneuver to refer the proposal to the NCAA Council. Many PC members were still at lunch when a roll call vote passed 170–150. University of Texas women's athletic director Donna Lopiano complained, "The President's Commission needs to do what it does best, and that is to macro-manage. Leave the micro-management to

12625-404: The size of coaching staffs; limiting how much time student-athletes can spend on their sports; and setting more demanding academic standards for Divisions I and II. By the 1980s, televised college football had become a larger source of income for the NCAA. In September 1981, the Board of Regents of the University of Oklahoma and the University of Georgia Athletic Association filed suit against

12750-475: The size of the NCAA Board of Governors from 20 to 9, and guarantees that current and former athletes have voting representation on both the NCAA board and the governing bodies of each NCAA division. The new constitution was the first step in a reorganization process in which each division will have the right to set its own rules, with no approval needed from the rest of the NCAA membership. The modern era of

12875-425: The split were inherited by the University Division. In 1973 the College Division split up between teams that wanted to grant athletic scholarships (becoming Division II, which inherited the College Division's records and history) and teams that did not (becoming Division III), and the University Division was renamed to Division I. Division I split into two subdivisions for football only in 1978 (though both still under

13000-432: The tenth inning. A rematch with LSU sat on the horizon, and the drained Arkansas pitching staff struggled. Closer Stephen Richards started the game for the Hogs, who were losing 4–0 by the third inning. After an error and a wild pitch, the Razorbacks gave up runs in six separate innings, and lost 14–5. The Hogs finished tied with Arizona State (who Arkansas defeated twice in the regular season) for third place. Arkansas began

13125-419: The time. In 2014, the NCAA set a record high of $ 989 million in net revenue. Just shy of $ 1 billion, it is among the highest of all large sports organizations. During the NCAA's 2022 annual convention, the membership ratified a new version of the organization's constitution. The new constitution dramatically simplifies a rulebook that many college sports leaders saw as increasingly bloated. It also reduces

13250-481: The truth is, they really don't have time to be involved." Bo Schembechler was blunt, "Unfortunately, you're dealing with people who don't understand. We're trying to straddle the fence here because you still want me to put 100,000 (fans) in the stadium and the reason you want me to do it is because you're not going to help me financially at all." In 1990, the University of Michigan head football coach and athletic director resigned his college job to become president of

13375-687: The two finalists being Kansas City and Indianapolis. Kansas City proposed to relocate the NCAA back downtown near the Crown Center complex and would locate the visitors' center in Union Station . However, Kansas City's main sports venue Kemper Arena was nearly 23 years old. Indianapolis argued that it was in fact more central than Kansas City in that two-thirds of the members are east of the Mississippi River . The 50,000-seat RCA Dome far eclipsed 19,500-seat Kemper Arena. In 1999,

13500-656: The two schools have shared 10 of 15 regular season titles and 7 of 15 conference tournaments. After the 2012 season, Texas A&M left for the SEC . Texas's rivalry with Texas Tech dates back March 22, 1968, when the Longhorns beat the Red Raiders 7–5 in Lubbock . That was the year Texas Tech joined the Southwest Conference. Since then, the schools have competed each year in a three-game series. The Longhorns have had eight players, three coaches, and one veteran inducted into

13625-478: The various expert groups. We will bring back solutions." Numerous presidents were shocked, upset and angry, but the remaining PC members began their own lobbying and arm-twisting. An hour later, there was a sense that representatives who had voted against the direction of their respective presidents had reconsidered, and a motion was made to reconsider by Lattie F. Coor , president of Arizona State University . West Point Lieutenant General Dave Richard Palmer urged

13750-427: The venture is to help improve the fairness, quality, and consistency of officiating across amateur athletics. The NCAA had no full-time administrator until 1951, when Walter Byers was appointed executive director. In 1998, the title was changed to president. In 2013, the NCAA hired Brian Hainline as its first chief medical officer . Before 1957, all NCAA sports used a single division of competition. In 1957

13875-470: The vote, a delegate was quoted, "A lot of Athletic Directors figure they've successfully waited out the presidents...unless the presidents fight back, NCAA reform is flat-ass dead in the water." The PC proposed just one legislative issue at the January 1987 meeting: applying the minimum academic standards in Division I to Division II. It narrowly passed. The PC attempted to again push the reform of college athletics by calling another special convention which

14000-469: The vote, stating the NCAA needed "to make a mark on the wall...delay is the deadliest form of denial." Following discussion, compromise and voting on minor issues, the reconsideration motion passed, and the third proposal was adopted with a vote of 165–156. The President's Commission held hearings beginning on May 9, 1991, to develop stronger academic standards. The President's Commission lasted for 13 years and pushed through initiatives such as restricting

14125-638: The year. Limping into the 2009 SEC baseball tournament , the Hogs defeated Florida twice, but were bumped from the tournament by Vanderbilt. The Razorbacks were the #2 seed in the Norman Regional, hosted by the Oklahoma Sooners . The Hogs defeated Washington State in game 1 in Norman, setting up a match up with #9 Oklahoma, who the Hogs had beaten at home a month earlier on a Brett Eibner walk-off bases-loaded walk. Arkansas collected 20 hits in

14250-474: Was 51–16 in 1987, and finished in fifth place at the CWS. The Hogs finished second in both the SWC regular season and postseason tournament. The Regional was played in Huntsville, Alabama , and the Razorbacks defeated Middle Tennessee , West Virginia , and Clemson (twice) in order to play in Omaha. Texas, who Arkansas had gone a lowly 1–4 against during the season and now was ranked #1 nationally, loomed in

14375-481: Was a block from Municipal Auditorium which had hosted men's basketball Final Four games in 1940, 1941, and 1942. After Byers moved the headquarters to Kansas City, the championships would be held in Municipal Auditorium in 1953, 1954, 1955, 1957, 1961, and 1964. The Fairfax office consisted of three rooms with no air conditioning. Byers' staff consisted of four people: an assistant, two secretaries, and

14500-570: Was against the Texas Longhorns . #1 Texas prevailed 13–2, and the Razorbacks were one loss from elimination. The Arizona Wildcats would bump the Razorbacks from Rosenblatt Stadium in their next game, 7–2. Arkansas began hot in 2009, starting the year at 10–2 including back-to-back wins over #1 Arizona State that set Baum Stadium attendance records. The Hogs luck changed entering SEC play, as they dropped series against Vanderbilt, Georgia, and LSU, and were swept by Alabama and Ole Miss to end

14625-488: Was being proposed by Representative Tom McMillen and Senator Bill Bradley . The proposals demonstrated that the PC was intent on regaining control of college athletics and the opposition was immediate. Commissioner of the Big Ten Conference Jim Delany responded, "They tend to want quick answers and you don't solve the complexities of intercollegiate athletics. Yes, presidents are involved, but

14750-473: Was dissatisfied with its Johnson County, Kansas suburban location, noting that its location on the southern edges of the Kansas City suburbs was more than 40 minutes from Kansas City International Airport . They also noted that the suburban location was not drawing visitors to its new visitors' center. In 1997, it asked for bids for a new headquarters. Various cities competed for a new headquarters with

14875-680: Was good for fifth place in the CWS. Wichita State would go on to win the National Championship, fighting off elimination three times more. Six of the 11 all-CWS team were members of the Wichita State Shockers, including Eric Wedge . Arkansas Razorbacks outfielder Troy Eklund was elected to the All-American team. Arkansas won the SEC Western Division, a portion of the SEC crown, and visited

15000-477: Was held in June 1987 to discuss cost-cutting measures and to address the overemphasis on athletics in colleges and universities. John Slaughter, Chancellor of the University of Maryland served as chairman. He stated, "This represents the second major thrust since our commission was formed three years ago. The first involved academics and infractions. This will be equally momentous and more sweeping. We want to achieve

15125-446: Was hired as Texas' fifth head coach on June 29, 2016. The Longhorns have won national titles in 1949, 1950, 1975, 1983, 2002, and 2005. The Texas Longhorns baseball team started in 1894, with the first game in 1895. Records from the first two years are incomplete. The first collegiate victory was over Add-Ran College, what is today Texas Christian University , on April 21, 1897. Seven different managers, including some that were also

15250-474: Was named for Billy Disch and Bibb Falk. After Cliff Gustafson retired in 1996, Augie Garrido took over the helm at Texas. During his tenure, the school won seven Big 12 Conference titles, four conference tournament championships, and two national championships, in 2002 and 2005 . Garrido died on March 15, 2018. On June 29, 2016, it was announced that David Pierce (previously head coach at Tulane and Sam Houston State) would take over being head coach at

15375-452: Was next to John McDonnell Field , home of the outdoor track and field team, and has since been turned into the practice field for the football team. Arkansas first fielded a baseball team from 1897 to 1930. The modern era of Razorbacks baseball began in 1947, under Deke Brackett. Bill Ferrell led the team from 1950 to 1965, and Wayne Robbins took over from 1966 to 1969. In 1970, Cole hired 28-year-old Norm DeBriyn after another man took

15500-601: Was often in NCAA Division I baseball tournament. The Longhorns rivalry with Texas A&M is part of the Lone Star Showdown . The baseball rivalry dates back to April 24, 1903, when the Longhorns defeated the Aggies 6–2 in College Station . The Longhorns and Aggies combined to win or share 75 of 81 Southwest Conference regular season championships and 13 of 19 conference tournaments. In Big 12 play,

15625-552: Was to veto the selection of Executive Director. The composition of the commission was 22 CEOs from Division I and 11 CEOs each from Divisions II and III. The true intent of the PC was to shift control of intercollegiate athletics back to CEOs. Graduation rates were an important metric to chancellors and presidents and became a focus of the PC. In June 1985 a special convention was held to review legislative proposals including academic integrity, academic-reporting requirements, differences in "major" and "secondary" violations including
