Retiring at the end of the year. It will be interesting to see who they hire.
Here are some preliminary names to watch from Kendall Rogers:
- Chris Burke (ESPN)
- Eric Balkich (Michigan)
- John Sfecz (Maryland)
- Cliff Godwin (ECU)
- Rick Honeycutt (Dodgers)
- Randy Mazey (WVU)
- Mark Calvi (South AL)
On a related note, I saw something from Aaron Fitt the other day about George Horton possibly being on the way out at Oregon. Didn't I see somewhere on the board that Gary Henderson has connections to the Pacific northwest?
uT is a graveyard job. Just a fact.
Yea and what's weird about them is they have some pretty decent MLB players history, Todd Helton, R.A. Dickey, Chase Headley, Luke Hochevar and they had a 1st round draft pick two years ago and have another top 5 overall projected pick this year.Quote:

Coenz to UT*
Henderson used to be the pitching coach at Oregon State and I believe he went to college there. With Oregon State doing so well this year I could see some turnover there as well as other schools will inevitably offer their assistant coaches jobs as well.Quote:

I think with baseball players it's more about the coach and getting drafted in the first round along with a legit chance to win a NC. The Vandy education is nice fallback I guess- if you want to live in New York City.Quote:

Not necessarily. Not saying it's not true but I wouldn't just assume Cann is gonna go poach Dunn from LSU. He may have something else up his sleeve.
