Correct. He played at East Carolina and spent 8 years assisting at Clemson and Vanderbilt. He will be coaching in an ACC or SEC program.

Guy loves Michigan and has turned down multiple chances for bigger jobs. Don’t see him leaving after this. He seems like somebody that loves being THE guy and building something

LOL, yeah they all say that. Like how Chris Petersen was never going to leave Boise State. Bakich turned down offers when he was losing in regionals. Now that he is in the championship series, he can name his price.

While that’s almost always the case, I just don’t see any job that screams you have to leave now that’s open. In the coming years yes, but not right now

Oh, for sure. There's nothing coming open this summer. But that dude isn't retiring at Michigan. He just commanded $1.5 million whenever he wants it.

I immediately thought of South Carolina for him. Don’t think Kingston lasts much longer if he doesn’t turn it around quick. They got accustomed to winning down there and it hasn’t been pretty lately

So Jim and Gino have actually been on the right track by keeping us out of the top 8.

By the way, that's 4x, not 5x.

There's a reason why a northern team hasn't won the CWS since 1966. Meanwhile, we can't get out of a regional and we have people blaming the NCAA.

You're right we don't deserve you! You should tell us all to F%#k off and take your fandom to a more deserving program. Oh wait...

1. Jagr makes a baseball comment
2. Clown offers a smart *** reply
3. Jagr makes a baseball comment
4. Clown abandons the topic, makes a personal attack

I’m shocked.

The average aid PER student given by Vanderbilt is $51,787. If baseball players simply receive the average payment, they are basically attending Vanderbilt for free.

The lottery awards, coupled with state tuition, provide Florida, Louisiana, Tennessee and Georgia baseball players with free tuition.

Stanford will soon implement something similar to Vanderbilt.

UM needs to find a way to become more competitive in regard to the 11.7 limitation. We have an elite team at present, and this should persist for a few more years, but our financial limitations will continue to hamper us and they may hurt us more in the future.
 
I love it.

We recruited an elite team and should be elite for several years, but that darn NCAA is just too much to overcome and won’t allow us to get good players.

For the 500th time, baseball players in Florida aren’t getting free tuition.
