Yep. Was literally just about to post this.

Not a bad hire, but I'd say it's underwhelming. Which sums up Ray Tanners AD career nicely.

So how is USCe a better spot than Florida again?

Yeah not saying it isn't him but nothing official yet. We will all know by tomorrow at the latest as the BOD is scheduled to meet regarding whoever it is contract.

Played college baseball at UNC, but otherwise has no ties to the Carolinas.

Really underwhelming hire, has made the NCAAT 3 times, but never advanced to supers. 2-6 in the NCAAT.

Could have been much worse. Not a bad hire.

Should have hired Tony Vitello, but glad USC-E didn't. Much harder to succeed at Tennessee than USC-E, in baseball.

I see people shitting on Kingston here. I think he'll do a good job. Complaining that he hasn't won a Regional in 7 years as a head coach is funny. Go take a look and see how many years it took Mainieri to finally win a Regional.

FTR He did as good a job if not a better job recruiting at Tulane than Jim Schlossnagle did.
He also brought a near top 10 recruiting class into USF. Not exactly an easy thing to do.

Not a wow hire, but a very solid hire for sure.
