With Nate Yeskie off the board for Jay Johnson and @LSUbaseball, my first call would be to former Texas A&M head coach Rob Childress as PC in Baton Rouge. There would be interest.

Source: Have talked to a extremely close source that Chad Caillet could potentially join Jay Johnson staff along with Rob Childress. Not final, but potential candidates! #AYS

One of the best. He’d be a total coup of a get. And he’s a great guy to boot.

Unfortunately, he tends to stick to the script/“conventional baseball wisdom” far too often when it comes to left-handed/right-handed pitcher vs hitter advantages—even when a pitcher is mowing down batters. Same goes with leaving guys in far too long. I have a couple of “sparkles” in my hair as a result.

But something tells me fans of many teams probably say the same about their coach(es).

He is an absolutely fantastic pitching coach. Poor recruiting, but elite developer and game caller. If y’all hire him, it will be a home run.

He would be great in that spot, pitching was never really his problem.

He is one of the best when it comes to pitching. He would be a great hire..........to a team outside the SEC.

Recruiting was his downfall.

He got lucky a few years ago with a couple of players from Nebraska of all places and it seemed as if his roster always had a Nebraska player. (btw Nebraska does not have high school baseball and Childress recruited American Legion etc in Nebraska.) If he would have spent more time in Houston instead of Nebraska is outcome would have been a lot better.

Good points? His wife is an Aggie.

If you want your ace's arm to fall off he's your man.

He alienates his players and beats morale to the ground. Since he’s not a head coach it shouldn’t be a problem.
