He’s not wrong though. Hiring Bieser over Vitello had the fan base up in arms. Vitello was such an obvious hire.

Jim Sterk was a lousy AD and why the Board of Curators overruled him in the football coaching hire and hired Drinkwitz.

Missouri would seem to be the perfect place to build a college baseball power. Money is available, the folks there love baseball, and you can draw players from around the Midwest.

An example of why getting the right coach, and avoiding the wrong coach, is so important in college sports.

He should have been the hire. He played for Mizzou, assistant for Mizzou for 8 years, and he’s from St. Louis Missouri. I can understand not wanting to take a chance on him the first time when he left for TCU. But overlooking him a 2nd time was jsut criminal.

Even though I am glad Missouri overlooked him. Not sure they would be able to hold onto him, but it would have been hard to get him out of his hometown. He is a Loyal person, and that’s why he’s not leaving UT now, since we gave him his 1st shot and made him the youngest HC in the SEC at the time.
