Get prepared for the misspelling of his name - Goodwin instead of Godwin.

To be fair, this is not the first time Tennessee has been mentioned in some sort of “classless” behavior.

Paul Mainieri made comments about it.

Dave Van Horn got into it with the coach following the series. Don’t forget Vitello coached for Van Horn.

Then you add in the over the top celebration following the Wright State game.

That smoke is going to start a fire soon.


So the Will Wade of baseball

I think Goodwin, McDonalds or Kathleen Blanco's son are all fine options

Is there a reason nobody is talking ab Brian OConner. Seems like he checks all the boxes to me.

He has a bad rep for ruining pitchers and while he had a good run in the mid 2000s, the last couple years they missed the tourney, so the shine wore off

Bianco would be the extremely safe hire imo. But safe doesn't always = championships

aving said that, Ole Miss has been an very good baseball program for about 15 years now. Bianco has brought them to the edge of elite. But they have been repeatedly knocked out at home in the postseason. They have only reached Omaha as many times as schools such as Stony Brook, Missouri State, and Kent State.

100% wrong.

Wade falls on the a-hole side of a-hole / attention-whore.

And basketball is completely different than baseball for what makes a team tick.

Basketball you need 5 minutes spurts of greatness across 60 minutes of play time.

Baseball you need 8 second spurts of greatness across 2-3 hours of play time.

Can't really compare the coaching need for the two.

Half the rant would not have liked that coach that LSU hired from Michigan State. What was his name?
