    Godwin

    Let?s discuss him with an open minded attitude in this thread. Here is the little bit that I know.
    -He is very highly thought of among baseball people (should help with recruits and scouts)
    -He coached under Corbin, manieri, and Bianco.
    -The olemiss people were highly upset when they lost him (they revered him much the same way they did McDonnell and those are the only two that I recall them bellyaching about losing.)
    -reputation as a good and maybe elite recruiter.

    What else do we know?

    He seems like a great up and coming coach. Before Cohen said things about CWS trips, I think he would have been a great candidate. He knows Mississippi and has lived there. He is a great hitting coach and recruiter. Only downsides I can see is only making 1 Super and has only won 40 games twice out of 4 years. He hasn't had a losing record although he did miss a Regional last year with a 32-28 record. East Carolina has a history of making Regionals so it isn't as big of an accomplishment as Schloss, McDonnell, Corbin, or Tadlock.

    You all are trying to make lemonade out of a lemon. We did not get whom we wanted don't try to make out this guy as the top of choices. IMO if this is the choice intense bastard struck out.

    When did Cohen actually say that the next head coach would have CWS appearances? Was this on a road dawg tour? Or one of his emails? Or is this one of those a booster said he said it?

    In nearly every radio interview (OOB, H2H, etc.)

    I'd rather let Mangum be a player/coach for a year.

    And people wonder why we no longer are considered a great baseball program. It’s because of shit like this. Accepting mediocrity.

    If Godwin signs an extension this board will self destruct.

    John is finding out what I’ve had to live with my whole life. Just because Ive got the biggest **** around, doesn’t mean all the ladies want it. It’s just too big for some. You might say it’s not a good fit.

    As a head coach? He never said that. Like I've been telling this board for six weeks, Cohen never said the guy would have trips to Omaha as a head coach.

    It was on Head to Head radio show: https://247sports.com/college/missis...ball-117048970

    His exact quote was "This person is going to have made trips to Omaha, Nebraska." I've only been once, and given that "trips" is plural, I'd say I'm not in consideration for the head coaching job. But we've got a huge pool of candidates to choose from.

    (***--I guess?)

    He’s said it repeatedly. A proven head coach with multiple trips to Omaha.

    I admittedly don't know much about Godwin, why do people want him over Butch Thompson?

    Ole Miss doesn't seem to have skipped a beat in recruiting since he left. And at a glance, he's done marginally better at ECU than previous coaches. I feel like our fans think so highly of him simply because Ole Miss fans really liked him.
