I think Parker is a good pitching coach. Last year when he had some high end talent that showed. I just don't understand why he was not WAY more aggressive in the portal over the offseason. We HAD zero proven SEC starters returning and ALL we could get from the portal was Pruitt?? That was NEVER going to cut it. We are fortunate Pico and Siary were as good as they were this year or things could have really been bad. Ligon was up and down seemingly every week but another unproven guy coming off injury. Parker actually did pretty well with what he had to work with this season but I put a lot of blame on him for not pulling in another one or two big time portal guys.
