Don't know anything about him? Is this a good hire?

Good hire.

So much for the homerun hire I thought they'd make

Solid hire. He's a good coach.

Bama can't have success without Louisiana connections

Can't be worse than Gaspard.

I was really hoping y'all could sway Bobby Cox!

A lot of my friends who live in ruston are rustled AF about this. They are bitching about no loyalty yada yada yada. LaTech fans are very much more delusional than LSU fans. They honestly don't understand why he is leaving Tech to go to Bama. It's bad when LSU fans look at Tech fans and see them as delusional.

i agree this is extremely underwhelming but what did you expect? I'm shocked he took the job. I thought we'd end up with Jax State or South Al's coach. this isnt an indictment of Bill Battle, the program or anything. Back in the day when all was an even playing field Bama baseball was the tops in the SEC until States run in the 80's. Great baseball players will come to Bama but not to pay their own way. Dont start on well Jim Wells did this. Jim Wells coached in a completely different time. The scholarships are THE reason he got out. He couldnt compete anymore.
Bama and Auburn operate at a huge disadvantage. One of the most blatant and obvious disadvantages anybody could operate under and people choose to ignore it and if I were you I wouldnt want to discuss it either since you gain a big advantage over Bama with the current set up. It amazes me that this lottery schollie thing is legal and has not been addressed but there simply arent enough states that dont have it to make a big deal out of it like they did the unlimited football schollies in the 70's . Mitch Gaspard, Mitch Gaylord, Augie or Skip are not gonna win at Bama dividing up 11.7 schollies. yes, its underwhelming but ask yourself, would you take a job with that stacked against you? I cant believe he left a state where he can basically have as many players as he wants to come to Bama but it will make NO DIFFERENCE whatsoever in Bama's wins and losses. you could have kept gaspard and saved money. Until the lottery is addressed Bama and Auburn have ZERO chance. Manieri should have been fired for losing 2 to a team full of walk-ons which is basically what Bama is.
Ask Skip where LSU would be without the lottery.

MSU's new pitching coach has a better head coaching resume than Alabamas new head coach.

Unless there is some major last minute screw up, Bama has finally put this matter to rest and has a new baseball coach - Goff.

He's an outstanding coach. I've often wished he was LSU's coach. One of those great people who are also coaches. He got a lot of performance out of not much talent at Tech.
