When Butch leaves...

Who do you think we'll hire to take his place?

Dunno but about his potential departure....

Who do you think we'll hire to take his place?

A shot at a HC job in the SEC is a no brainer. He'd take it in a heartbeat. So if AU offers, its goodbye.

I think he would also look at a HC job just about anywhere and maybe even a lateral move in an equivalent program. After all, his bosses chair is pretty hot right now and thus by default, so is his.

Didn't butch turn down the Georgia job when it was open last? Or did I imagine that?

Cohen's seat is not hot right now.

I doubt he turned the Georgia job down. And John Cohen definitely doesn't need a repeat of last year.

Butch and baseball work a bit different. I wouldn't say his fate is directly tied to Cohen at MSU, because I believe it likely that any potential next guy would see the same thing I see in him...

My opinion remains that he's the best pitching coach in the country FOR MSU, and we haven't reached his ceiling here. Is he perfect? No. Would I like him to do a few things differently? Sure. Even with the anomaly that was last year for us on the hill, he's in very elite company statistically across college baseball...

We had single digit SEC wins last year.....

Finished dead last and looked worse doing it. This is at a program that supposedly values BB more than most and is two years removed from a #2 finish. His seat is on fire as far as I am concerned.

About turning down the UGA job, don't remember anything about that.

Hopefully, Wes Johnson. The pitching coach at Dallas Baptist

We need someone from the Ron Woolforth teaching tree that knows how to build velocity.

Yeah no crap he can't stand a repeat of last year. Urban Meyer couldn't stand going 2-10 two straight years but that doesn't mean his seat is hot after the first one.

Which is one of the primary reasons his seat is not even warm as far as the people that make decisions are concerned. It'll be a different story if he repeats this year, but right now, he's completely safe.
