Curious to see who they hire next June

They have lost 2 of their best players to the portal. Something that has yet to happen to us thanks to Lemon/Staff/CharlieQuote:

Someone will so no, or that they don?t like his antics. They probably didn?t like Cohen?s antics either?
He outworks other coaches and is great at developing relationships. That + their NIL budget makes him tough to beat. He's added arguably the best 2B, 3B and 1B in the portal.Quote:

Great recruiter
Can outspend everyone
Great college town
Great facilities
Wonder why he is doing so well?
Somewhere between the "A" & "T".Quote:

Removing the "1 time instant transfer" rule would help smaller programs in all sports. Then they'd only have to worry about grad transfers leaving for NIL deals. I could also see some kind of contract situation where players get NIL but have a "buyout" if they want to leave early. That means other schools not only have to offer a better NIL to the player, but want that player enough to pay the buyout which the other school can use to Portal in a replacementQuote:

And their facilities sucked before him.
Point being, it's about having the right guy. If we hired TV in 2018 instead of Lemonis we'd be a powerhouse.
