Leah Vann also confirms Ostrander was a finalist. Would’ve been good with him too
Trust me Johnson is a FAR better hire than Ostrander or any of the other names she mentioned

Very impressive hire. Unexpected.

Yeah I wasn’t figuring he would stay until then. This is just unusual for a coach to leave a division leading team but I will take it.

Could a hire this big make a few pitchers in our class rethink their decision to turn pro this year. I wouldn't normally think so but a coach of this caliber can turn guys into very high picks.

I literally just put this together but did Vitello recruit your family member to Arkansas?

You're in the ballpark but a bit off on the years

Ah, thanks. I didn’t remember the years. I’m guessing it was the guy from Lake Charles that left for Wichita State whose name has escaped me.

Maybe Wes is a good old baw and wanted to get away from the looney arse politics up there.
Just saying.
Just saying.

KR reporting a $500K pay at LSU for Wes Johnson who was making $350K with the Twins. LSU AINT PLAYING AROUND

That’s a lot of cash for a college pitching coach lol

Now you've struck out

That’s as far back on their coaching staff as I can go, ha
Posted on 6/26/22 at 8:04 pm to beardkp
That is a ton, but doesnt surprise me. Lsu will always pay assistants up there near the most
Posted on 6/26/22 at 8:05 pm to ProjectP2294
Sounds like Todd Butler

My bad, I thought you were talking about the player you were thinking of, not the coach. You're on it now

Sounds like 2 of the 3 are Joshua Stewart pitcher from Texas and a starting pitcher from SMU. Neither are pickups I’d call ‘big’. Still not sure who the 3rd is
