Any of you meet and interact with him in person when he was @ State?

What did you think of him and do you think it was a good hire for UK

He's a fiery coach. LSU fans hate him bc of how vocal he was as a third base coach. LSU fans thoughts on Mingione

Honestly, though I don't know much about him as a person or a coach but we had pretty good teams while he was here and he's passionate about baseball

Wow, thats surprising. I didn't know UK cared that much about baseball but I guess it's somewhat growing in the SEC with more games being on TV in recent years.

I was surprised as well considering just 2 years ago the budget was half of that.

3 things may be in play (especially as it will not be big with just 2,500 base seating)

#1 Line Beards have a new stadium and just expanded courtesy of the guy behind Long John Silvers chain

#2 UK promised Cohen a new stadium then did not follow trough so Cohen went to State

#3 Money contractors are charging seems crazy but they keep winning these projects
