Matt Deggs more focused on academics over elegibility

Go figure, UL baseball coach Matt Deggs looked at the decision the NCAA Division I Council faced in Monday's vote on the future of spring sports student-athletes as like … well, a baseball game.

"I look at it like this, you have to play five innings for it to be a regulation game," Deggs explained. "Five innings is past halfway to nine and we weren't even halfway. "Metaphorically, if you look at it in that regard in terms of a game when you apply it to a season, they made the right decision."
