Some DI baseball programs are fully funded and some are not. Who determines if a program is fully funded the university or the NCAA. What does that mean to be fully funded? What does a university have to do to become fully funded?

The school itself determines if they will fully fund the program.

By fully funded, what is normally meant is that they college/university has decided to award athletic scholarships up to the maximum allowable level in that sport. In baseball in Division I, it's 11.7 scholarships (divided over about 38 players on the average.

Just to give you an idea, Funding seems to be a factor that is primarily affected by school size.

For D1 baseball # of scholarships:
School plays D1-A football: 11.2 baseball
School plays D1-AA football: about 9.5 baseball.
D1 with No football program: about 11 baseball.

It's a matter completely up to the institution AND the conference.

He is having a great time and really doing very well. Got in the game vs. Ark. last week and will travel to Alabama this week. Texas Tech, Okl. Arizona State and LSU on March 11. I think we are going down to LSU for that series. Saw your post about NIU beefing up there schedule next year.. Sounds like they will be playing some great teams.. Hope to see Aurora West the spring. See you at some games.
