COACHING NEWS: @HailStateBB has hired @NCStateBaseball pitching coach Scott Foxhall to complete Chris Lemonis’ full-time staff at Mississippi State. MSU got a guy with a wealth of experience and a solid track record as pitching coach with Foxhall. #HailState @HailState
One thing is that he was won everywhere he has been similar to Moorhead.
Yep. But SEC baseball, and SECw Baseball in particular, is a whole different animal, so we'll see. I was pretty down about the hire initially (and not because of Cohen's talk) but so far so good. We'll see how the team progresses this fall and how we do come game time.
Lemonis is walking into such a great situation that we may never know if he was the right hire.
Lemonis is going to win, but it'll be difficult to discern whether he was the OPTIMAL hire because I see no reason that Lemonis won't be able to make us into a consistent host team that competes for Omaha. I think there are 20+ coaches in the country that could've done that.
So in doing so, everyone will paint him as a great coach, but we really won't ever know what Schloss, McDonnell, etc could've done.
We have been good Most of the time in baseball and we will continue to be good. No problem on the "wait and see" status, JWS summed up winning better than most, "Coaches don't win games they just have to put players in the situation to win the game, players win games"! So true!
Great hire and if I’m not mistaken this was our second choice behind Yeskie. Elite recruiter (Casey Mize comes to mind) and a great pitching coach who gets results right away. I’m very pleased with this hire.
