Tim Tadlock, assistant at Oklahoma, don't know if he'd be interested, but would be worth a look.

Need to bring back Turtle Thomas. Best college hitting instructor out there. Turtle Thomas is currently the head coach at Florida International, but he has been to 14 College World Series as an assistant coach with four different teams. His hitting clinics are legendary. He was at Miami from 1988-1999 (9 World Series appearances and 1 National Championship) and LSU from 2000 - 2006 (included 3 World Series appearances) and the one year at Arizona State in 2007, they went to Omaha


are you talking about the same turtle thomas whose recruiting basically ran the LSU program into the ground and eventually got smoke fired ? thomas spent gobs of money recruiting in the state of california and other areas in the west and signed class after class of top three round MLB picks that never got to campus ... a great recruiter ??
