J Bob was intimidated by T Bob. There can only be one letter Bob in each college town.

Yep. This happened last night. Also, look for Thomas, who was already making north of 300K, to get a further sizable bump. Also, that

assistant pool is massive. They are definitely not afraid to spend.


probably obvious now why this offer was leaked so quickly

I'm reading a book and i liked a line in it.

Always start simple, have a plan that can't fail. But also have a 1/100 plan that if it works you'll look like a God as well as a 1/20 and a 1/5 plan...this was the 1/100 shot...it didn't work so you move on.

Disagree. He will land a very good pitching coach. He isnt gonna be handcuffed if he cant land the top 2 or 3 guy out there.

Hey, that’s what you do and that’s standard Rant advice on coaching hires.

Go big and make the first guy tell you no.

Johnson will build a great staff

Everyone knew Thomas was a long shot, but worth asking. Lots of outstanding recruiters out there.

Far more interesting will be the pitching coach

That has nothing to do with what you said.

yes, he is dependent on a good pitching coach.

Of course he will make a good hire.

Fine by this. You make a list of nothing but the best and make them turn you down.

I agree, hey no one knows what the reason for J Bob's final decision was. Maybe his wife didn't want to move or he didn't in any case they have other great options like Tulo maybe.
The most important hire will be the pitching coach as that's the hire we need to get right!
I completely trust in coach Johnson with these hires as this when all said and done will be an awesome strong staff.
