After Bianco was out, the word was our next baseball coach was still coaching in Omaha.

Jay Johnson lost out, can we officially scratch him from the list?

At what point today can you assume its not Vitello, if we don't hear anything?

Corbin and O'Connor are the only two coaches still coaching.

I was confident that it was Vitello, but that is starting to cool off for me. What y'all thinking?

I assume we are waiting for an answer from Corbin then moving down the list. Hopefully Vandy loses tonight and we can start to get some clarity.


If he's not top of the list, we are not gonna simply offer CTV because his team lost out first.

I hope it’s Vitello but if it isn’t, and your theory holds up, Gautreau is still coaching.

The people of the Rant believe Vitello already has an offer in his hand. Rumor has it Sexton and Woody been dealing all week.

Wrong. Chris Lemonis is still in that mix & should be our top choice!!

Whether your next coach is still coaching or not, I don’t expect a press conference announcement until some time next week.

If they know it’s him it would have been announced. No one blames an assistant for moving up so there would have been a statement from LSU and the introductory press conference would take place after State’s season is over. No different than Eddie Smith’s situation but clearly on a larger scale.

I agree. It would be a positive for the State program that an assistant would be taking the LSU job, so State would be happy to have that announced right away.

I don’t think it’s Gautreau. It doesn’t fit Scott’s MO. That’s why I don’t foresee a presser until next week.

I agree with this. I still think Woody makes Corbin tell him no before he moves on to Vitello.

Why divert news away from the CWS like the day AL hired Saban?
Just wait until the entire season is over and say we hired our #1 guy even if it is an assistant from a team that had their season ended a week ago.

Because we have returning players, 19 signees, and 15 commitments who will be signing in a few months and literally no coaches on staff at the moment. If you have your guy you announce it as soon as you can. It’s too important of a time not to.

Just another several days to wait. What AL did was a total d-ck move to shift focus off of LSU on the day of the national championship.
