Lutz seems like a solid hire. Worked with good coaches and gets his teams to the tournament. It may have taken longer than expected, but I am excited. Assuming it comes to fruition.
I believe the mess comment was over stated. Are there challenges yes, but using the word mess gets clicks. I wonder how McCollum will be received though if he is the selection since likely others were the first choice.
My brother knows his dad. He wanted to go to OSU, but they were not real interested even after performing well for the Shockers. TCU was very open to him pitching and hitting and within driving distance for friends and family.
I am just hoping for tournament bids which would be 20-22 wins. We have a lot to overcome to right the ship - brutal conference and limited NIL funding.
Perhaps we should root for Nevada to have an early exit from the tournament. The quicker someone is onboard the better I would think. My gut tells me Garrison cashes in elsewhere, but maybe Small could be lured back. Likely no, but still worth a try.
I agree with everything you said. However, the team didn’t improve throughout the year and the showing in the tournament proved that he has lost the team. Maybe they knew he was done when they left for KC.
