Alabama had a nice run in the postseason but passed on the interim coach and hired the head guy at Maryland. They went with someone with head coaching experience.
We need to find someone like that. Someone from a D2 or smaller D1 might be ready to move up. The new conference could be intriguing to a coach who might consider a lateral move.

I am gonna trust the AD. He pulled Rich Rod out of a hat and who saw that coming. If he does something similar with this position then we will be in a good spot.

Rusty Greer if he want the job. This isn’t the time for talking replacement . It is the perfect time actually. Coach Case was allowed to retire as he should have been. But it was definitely time. Program had slipped and everyone knew it. But yes- fine man indeed.

Now that it’s tomorrow, who do you want to hire? To me the ideal candidate has strong ties to jr college and has ran a successful jr college program. That knows where the players are that are getting out spotlighted and deserve a chance at a higher level than where we were . Someone that knows where the good 2A talent is in Georgia and Alabama and Tennessee and Florida. Those are the redshirt type players but also we need to load our roster with jr college players. Now I have said Wes Brooks but I don’t know if he has the connection to the Jr College players. However he has won and that weighs heavily. I don’t think we will get a Jim Case type coach . From a top program but we can for a top jr college or high school level . That wins . You do not even consider a high school coach for this job. Not for a second.

This isn’t the time for talking replacement . I agree with the sentiment, but find it disingenuous coming from “Retire or Fire Him” serial poster. lol In his defense I actually posted and started the “ Retire Him or Fire Him” thread. It was obvious it was time. 4 straight losing seasons will do that.

Not advocating for anyone at this time, but if I were going local the Gerdron? from Donoho would be my pick. Our program needs a college coach with the move to CUSA we dont have the time to train. Yes. We need to remember we are not a training ground for new coached. We need experience at our level. Perhaps a hitting or pitching coach from the SEC or ACC.

Rusty Greer if he want the job. Rusty is an intriguing candidate. Great major league career. His name should mean more to Texas recruits as he spent so much time with the Rangers. With a could have Texas schools in our league, we should recruit more there anyway. He is new to coaching but his major league credentials could be helpful in recruiting. Just not sure how serious he is about coaching as he just really has started.

Unless I'm mistaken, his position at JSU had very little to do with pitching. I'm good either way. He's got an impressive resume, but if we could get an experienced college coach, I'd be all in for that as well. I just want us to recapture some semblance of the former glory we enjoyed in D-II. We should be one of the schools routinely mentioned when people talk about the great baseball schools in CUSA. If a coach out there can get us to that point, I'm sold.

Not being real serious but maybe East Cobb has a good coach.

Gawja just fired their coach.... was he really that bad? Perhaps he would be better in CUSA than the SEC...

We could take a gamble on UATs old coach?
