And he is an assistant for either Kansas or UK, then it would be Antiqua, Dooley, or Payne.

Time will tell...

that in the big three sports, we have one program where we command a proven head coach as a replacement for a departing head coach - baseball. We do not have that luxury in either football or basketball. Our football and basketball programs are perceived as also-rans in a conference dominated by a few powers. Very, very difficult to attract a proven head coach to that situation, despite the money. I don't care who is the AD and how great they are at selling.

this is not football. We have the luxury of taking our time with this. Why not do it?

Only thing I'm worried about time-wise is the spring signing period (which I think starts on 4/11). We need to have someone in place in time be ready for that. Depending on what happens between now and then, we might need to sign 2-3 more players.

but our baseball team is an also-ran compared to the 80s & 90s. Since then, we've really only made one hire - an alum (can't recall exact end of Polk I but Mc was on staff as coach in waiting as I recall). Be interested to see who we could get now that didn't play at MSU.

I think we will have our coach by the end of next week, that would still give the new coach a week to sign Pollard and another player or two if needed.
I would rather miss out on one recruit to get the right coach for MSU, Pollard is one Good Player..
