LSU Baseball Coach (1 Viewer)

Any rumors going around yet? feel a little bad since I said early this season, we should think about firing Mainieri and then at the end of the season he announces retirement.... he kinda reminded me of a Mack Brown had the talent but could only get over the hump once...

Pat Casey supposedly was in town a week or two ago, but I don't see that happening. Kevin O'Sullivan has supposedly removed himself from consideration, but there are talks that he was never in serious consideration anyway because of some scandal with a booster. Mike Bianco, Cliff Godwin, Tim Corbin or Jim Schlossnagle? Skip actually hired Manieri over Corbin if I recall. Anyone with a previous connection to LSU has been mentioned, but Scott Woodward has keep things pretty tight.

My first thought was Bianco when I heard the news but dang time sure does fly lol Bianco been at Ole Miss for 21 years and only one CWS appearance so kinda not hoping for that anymore lol I would want someone young and upcoming....

Hopefully, it will be Dan McDonnell from Louisville. He has proven track record-except for this year. lol

Tim Corbin would be nice. But I don't think LSU will pry him away from Vandy.

If they want to go young and promising then there is TONY VITELLO from Tennessee.

Jay is a very good hire. I'm just happy it wasn't Vitello who not only hasn't proven he's worth it after just a single season, is just a terrible person demeanor-wise. I can't stand whiny people.

Johnson has a proven track record of recruiting, developing hitters and CWS experience. Outside of O'Sullivan, O'Connor or Corbin, this was probably the best choice and he's only 44 years old. I know people are going to dislike a west coast choice, but his teams have not been typical west coast-style teams.
