Vitello about to be a rich man, whether it's staying in Tennessee or going elsewhere.

I’d rather McDonnell or Vitello over Sully.

LSU for sure gonna make the tourney now

I feel pretty confident that the choice will be one of these:
O’Sullivan
Vitello
Godwin
McDonnell
*part of me thinks O’Sullivan may be a smokescreen, though. There have been way too many rumors about LSU-OSullivan the last few weeks, leading me to believe it’s intentional by one or both parties

I wish Vitello would stay put for a few more years until DVH retires, and then he comes to tFlagship to sail the frick out of the SEC. If that doesn't happen, he needs to get TF out of the SEC. shite, that's all we need is another Top 10 program in SEC baseball.

I’ve also heard the Dallas Baptist coach’s name thrown around. Dan Heefner.

All true. Sully will not be the next LSU coach.

Cannizaro is a good coach. So he shacks up with a few coeds, who cares?
