Is Foxhall another, "premature ejaculation"?

Anybody else wondering why...if we have hired Scott Foxhall as pitching coach, his twitter still lists him as NC State PC, the NC State athletics page still lists him as their coach, and our own websites don't list him as ours?

Is this more of the same crap we went through with the HC position?

Is it too soon for this to be a concern, or have we been mislead again?

There have been actual articles from reputable publications posted announcing the Foxhall hiring. There was never anything more than messageboard chatter regarding the potential hires for HC.
This isn’t even close to the same situation.

Good point. Nothing official has come from the university. All info has been "according to Kendall Rodgers". If MSU has released anything official, I've totally missed it.

Don't care about the twitter

But no official announcement from university by now would be a concern.

And how many of those have referenced the tweet from Kendall Rogers as the source? Hasn't KR been wrong on the HC stuff before?

There is no indication this is on the IB, even if it is, "something". I haven't heard anything from him on this stuff. Everything I've read seems to be referencing KR, and KR has speculated and been wrong before.

That guy has lost a LOT of credibility over this coaching hire. If we haven't officially announced it by now, he at the very least jumped the gun again on this story.

Joel Coleman wrote in this article that it was confirmed by several sources. Read somewhere else, and thought it was interesting point, that the other coaches are already out recruiting. As soon as AD confirms Foxhall, one of those recruiters has to stop. This is similar to what happened with football after JoeMo was hired. We had what usually were on campus people going with him to high schools to introduce him that wouldn't have been able to do that if on field staff was completed. That may be the hold up. Getting him here and caught up with targets before being able to send him out.

Well, Cann's twitter still says he's the head BB coach of Mississippi State, so I guess everything since opening weekend has been one big premature ejaculation.**

Kendall Rogers never ONCE said we had finalized the hire of Schloss, McDonnell, or anyone else until he actually used those exact words with Lemonis.

Saying “I’m hearing ______ is a serious candidate for the MSU job” and “MSU has hired ______” are two entirely different things.

How so? He never said anything that was factually inaccurate. In some cases he may have predicted who the hire would be, but he always prefaced it by saying it was just a guess and to take with a grain of salt. Not his fault that things might (or might not) have fallen apart on a few guys that were thought to be leading candidates. He was the first one to break the story on Lenonis and Foxhall, and the first one to break the story on Schloss staying put. The dude is obviously pretty plugged in.

Maybe, but it lasted a solid 28 minutes according to Longtime Lurker. That's a good 20 minutes beyond my average.

No, "welp". If anything, I think I just about "nailed it" on the appropriate time to wonder if something was up. The reports of his hiring came out 2 days ago. That's a fairly long time to "sit on" the announcement if it really was a "done deal".

I'm cool with suggesting it as a topic for discussion when I did.

Was just meaning that things are all cleared up now, it appears. I hadn't looked at his account at 1p today so I have no idea when it was changed.

But regardless we all know he's a part of the MSU family now. And I think that's a good thing.

Carry on.

(Or one could insert a 'chicken ****' sky is falling comment) instead of having at least a modicum of faith in IB.

If anything, in my book he GAINED credibility. No one on our beat knew anything at all. Just like the football search, honestly.
