Florida State baseball coach Link Jarrett didn’t need much time to find his next pitching coach.

Tallahassee native and current Dallas Baptist pitching coach Micah Posey has agreed to come home and join Jarrett’s staff, according to multiple reports on Sunday afternoon. He will replace Chuck Ristano, who was introduced as the next head coach at Navy on Saturday.

Posey is the son of longtime North Florida Christian baseball coach Mike Posey and started his career on his father’s staff. The younger Posey also coached at Elon and East Tennessee State before joining the Dallas Baptist staff three years ago.

Micah Posey comes to FSU after helping Dallas Baptist post a 47-16 record this season and make an appearance in the NCAA Tournament.

As a player, Posey was drafted in the 15th round of the 2001 MLB Draft out of North Florida Christian. He later earned his bachelor’s degree in marketing from Florida State after his pro baseball career.
