Personally, I’d like to see NCAA and UIL adopt a wooden bat rule like MLB. There would be fewer home runs, but you would hear the crack of the ball on wood rather than the clang of the ball on aluminum.

The problem with wood was always that there wasn't enough QUALITY wood to supply wood bats at every level and the cost due to breakage. Now with the wood composites both concerns are answered. We put on a wood bat tournament every year, batters are excited about using wood, fans like it, and the pitchers LOVE it.
