I would guess he may have to make a change in season.

Hard to understand the decision. Russian posted back after AC got the Msu gig that several current head coaches at smaller schools applied for the job. I'd have to think there was some interest from more qualified candidates.

So what if he's playing ball. LSU could pay him more and he totally fits the mold of what CPM hires. Mediocre former players who everyone raved over while they were a Tiger. If not Katz, he could always hire Raph Rhymes.

Hitting coaches aren't important

You fricking kidding me? He had head coaches wanting it and he gave it to Gibbs? What a complete joke.

Gibbs isn't a hitting coach now.

He's a former player serving as a "hitting coach".

Nothing more.

Katz, Rhymes and Gibbs were 1st team AAs. Maybe just say Mainieri likes to hire former assistant who don't have a lot of experience instead of disrespecting them as former players to be an a-hole

If this is true then CPM even dumber than he looks

Unless he plans to do a serious search in June & wouldn't want to be stuck with any of those interested

You guys don't know what went on. Coaching hitting is not like coaching anything else. It is more the players who are hitting. This is not like football where you can change the plays. He could have hired another coach and there likely wouldn't be any difference right now

You don't forget how to hit. This is mental, but part of a coaches job is to prepare these kids mentally.

Y'all seriously aren't so fricking stupid to think that head coaches were applying for the job...

Literally zero names have come from people bitching about the hitting coach

Who tf did y'all want?
