You gotta think that if history holds true, JJ will have some sort of committee to tell him how to do his job and who to hire. Hopefully, that committee will include HB.

PM is saying it does not look like there will be a committee.

That's scary.

Baseball committee: Frank Thomas, Hal Baird, Bo(of course)

you don't need a freaking committee to hire a college baseball coach... you need a stack of resumes and the ability to read.
He'll make a decent hire... nothing earth shattering, but a solid hire none the less. It'll be just like last time... he got turned down by Corbin and ended up with (what we thought was a decent hire in Pawlowski.
The bottom line is we're going to have difficulty bringing in what we'd all consider a 'home run' hire... we don't have the built-in advantages of most of our SECW counterparts, and we haven't spent the money in recent years to keep up with the jones, so to speak.

You would think so. But I'd take HB's opinion over JJ's every day of the week.

Baird was the reasoning behind Renfroe... who was more or less a clone of what we just fired. Baird was a very good baseball coach, but I'm not sold on his ability to hire a coach.

and Renfroe took us to the post season how many times?

Baird is on the radio talking up Casey Dunn.
He will be our next coach.IMO

Dunn took Samford to the NCAA tourney. Samford. He is very highly regarded around here. Will he be hired? Dunno. He will certainly be interviewed.

And renfroe took over a better situation. Paw and SR are similar, mediocre coaches. I'm afraid we may hire another one with Dunn. I guess time tell.

Guess I'm on Team Calvi at this point. But I'll probably convince myself to be excited whoever we hire...only to be disappointed again.

if our current squad made the simple/smart baseball plays, we'd be playing in a regional right now. Our lack of fundamentals is the most frustrating thing. Posted on 5/28/13 at 9:23 pm to lowspark12

Would be a good hire, his family knows baseball.
