New pitching coach

[Cherokee]

Is the pack asleep or am I making too much of it that our coaches are now following Eric Dubose

@ericdubose28

Going strictly from memory but i think he has some time as a scout and I think he has recently been a high school coach in Alabama.

 

[Duke Humphrey]

I like Eric, but that is not the route I was hoping to see....... Hoping to see a more established pitching coach at the D1 level with a track record of success.

ETA: If it is Eric, im all for him and support him and the staff. Get to winning.

May be more to it...

Not saying that this is the only reason but if you look at his bio on the East Coast Sox page, the 2nd picture has him and JT Ginn in it together.

This ... no inside knowledge but from what I've gathered Ginn is tight with DuBose from a team last summer. A connection to have in our corner that can't hurt.

Well IU announced that they hired the Wright State coach, which still leaves the door for Bunn to join Lemonis in Starkville.

 

[AlSwearengen]

They are saying on other boards that it looks like we are attempting to make a big splash with the pitching coach. About as big of a splash as you can make if rumors are true.

I fully expect for that coach to get a big raise and we hire Bunn. Bunn is supposedly very good though.

Wes Johnson was seen at Old Waverly yesterday... **

Well dang, I thought baseball only got like 3 full time coaches which includes the head coach. How would you hire a pitching coach and still hire Bunn?

 

[kphall11]

He’s a part of the EC Sox which is an elite travel program and a few of our commits play on their teams each year.

Lol.....good lord. Our pitchers still haven't recovered from when he left.

 

[WutheringDawg]

You know that Bunn is a pitching coach right?

Excellent.

Why does my arm suddenly hurt so bad?

 

[maroonmania]

OK, I misinterpreted the post. I was thinking he meant a big raise to come to MSU but the poster was talking about a big raise to stay where he is and THEN we hire Bunn. Nevermind.

Orthapedic surgeons all over the Golden Triangle would rejoice at that news.***
