Mingione on Mississippi State job: "I don't see that happening."

UK head baseball coach Nick Mingione made a special guest appearance on today's edition of Kentucky Sports Radio radio to respond to the rumors of him being a potential candidate for the Mississippi State opening. Mingione made a statement earlier in the week, but Matt Jones didn't love it, so he asked Mingione to call in to the show to expand on what he originally said. When asked by KSR if Big Blue Nation is going to watch him bolt for Starkville, Mingione said, "No, I don't see that happening and here's why: Christen and I, we love this place. Lexington is our home. I fell in love with this place when I came here in '06. And my brain works in boxes, maybe some other people's don't, and I put a ton of checkmarks in all of the boxes here. So you know what, this is our job, this is the position we've been given, and we're obviously trying to do the best job we can, and there's really nothing to talk about in regards to Mississippi State." When pushed to stand by that statement, Mingione again said, "I don't see that happening." His interview concluded with this: "If I didn't think we could win here, or win a national championship, I wouldn't have came here to begin with... I would've never put my family in the position of coming here if I didn't believe this was possible."
