I’m not even going to begin to act like I know anything about this dude.

Outside of being an MLB pitching coach, what’s the hype?

Relax Josh. Can’t wait to read your baseball predictions for next year. I’m sure you’ll have LSU losing zero games

Good deal. He was on my top three list, along with Ostrande and Rob Childress.

Coached guys like Blaine Knight and Kevin Kopps at Arky. Couldn’t name anymore without doing some research.

Blaine went 11-0 during their CWS run if I remember right and Kopps won the Golden Spikes

He was PC at MooU in 2016 and Ark ‘17-‘18 before being hired by the Twins. Regarded as one of the top coaches in college before going to MLB, and a jump like that rarely happens. He’s earned respect as the Twins PC and it was thought he’d be an MLB manager before ever going back to college

Hopefully this helps with our recruiting class as well. Glad we have our guy before the draft hits.

Hope that's true.
How long before Random predicts that the new LSU Pitching Coach won't be bringing any Transfers with him?
