Per @PeteNakos here are a list of candidates for the Coastal baseball job.
Chris Lemonis (former Miss. State Coach)
Skylar Meade (Troy Head Coach)
Nolan Cain (Associate Head Coach Texas)
Chad Oxendine (CCU Associate Head Coach)
It’s early, but Lemonis seems to be the front runner. He grew up in Myrtle Beach.
The Trend.
College coaches recruit over their own players that aren't entering the transfer portal.
They pay a player that wasn't happy somewhere else to come play over their player that was loyal.
The rent a portal player usually plays a season and is right back in the portal and the same loyal player is still on the roster.
Does the coach keep making the same mistakes?
or
Does he learn to value loyalty?
This part of #Clemson HC Dabo Swinney's interview with @GregMcElroy stood out to me:
🗣️ “Our process is proven….We are a developmental program. Now, the world has changed. There’s 105 scholarships now. We’ve signed 16 portal guys in six years. You have to use (the portal) now. It’s not a source for us, but it's a resource…. For example, I’m not going to pay a linebacker out of high school more than Sammy Brown. That makes no sense.”
🏈 🐅 What do you think of Swinney's blunt comments?
