Lot of it is concern that Texas isn’t ready for SEC in baseball and need someone that is going to be using NIL/transfer portal more. Pierce is old school and more about player development. And Texas losing to A&M Corpus Christi and utrv with Texas resources is alarming.
Nice pick up as a UTL guy and maybe big for the bullpen.
SAM w a salty Non Con RPI of #56.
Some B12 sample size.
The big loss v UH in a Top 5 moment of a woebegone season.
2 ERs in 3 innings v Baylor x2/ Bonghorns.
OT
“high school teammates with fellow Bearkats Walker Janek and Robbie Spencer”
What did UH not see in Janek when recruiting Malachi Lott at High School/ travel ball ?
Lott, Cam Nickens, Brandon Burckel.
The local heart of a big time middle INF/CF upgrade based on recruiting.
Nickens awful in B12. Portal.
Burckel hit .114 in 15 starts for Indiana.
Well when you guys are right, youre f*cking right
Hopefully this is just the first of many changes.
Someone in the baseball offices just got a little less comfortable.
No effing doubt!
Cleaning house time…
Sean Allen to the Courtesy Phone please
Great news. Time to make something happen!!
Sphincters are tightening!
You’ve probably addressed this before and I missed it but, if David Pierce was interested in the job at Houston would you be in favor of him as our next coach?
Also if you’re not a fan of him, who else would you like to see us go after? I wonder if the East Carolina Coach ( I can’t remember his name) would have any interest. I’d probably take a look at the assistants at A&M, Arkansas, Tennessee, North Carolina etc.
David Pierce or Sean Allen? Two former Coogs correct? Who would be a better fit here and get us to Omaha? Perhaps Cougar baseball experts can weigh in?
Only one of those two names have been mentioned time and time again
There’s a rumor UT is waiting to hire Schosslnagle from Aggies.
Delusion.
Ha….my horn friends are sure it’s Vitello from TN. Either way, big aspirations.
Pierce all day long and hire Sean as assistant. Problem solved
And only one has been a finalist for this job before.
Pierce?
If I read CTW contract right we would owe him $130,000 if we fired him today. Just for reference if we went after David Pierce he currently makes $1.2 million dollars
Cliff Godwin makes $600,000 dollars
The Oregon State baseball coach makes roughly $650,000
Yup.
