Would send ripples across college baseball. I am sure we have recruited a few of their guys in the past, assuming it happens, let's see if how their roster reacts.

Any transfers from UT wouldn't be eligible to play in 2026.

That move would shake thing up in a major way
It's supposed to be hard. If it wasn't hard, everyone would do it. The hard... is what makes it great.

IMO, it won't.

I think they have two options...make Frank Anderson the interim coach for the season coming up and then go full on search in 2026 OR hire Josh Elander as the HC and keep it moving. Elander played for Jim Schlossnagle at TCU, worked for Dave Van Horn at Arkansas for a year before heading to UT with Vitello. He's been the main recruiter for all those studs at UT.

He'll be 35 next year so he's still young but he's got the pedigree and big time baseball experience having both played and coached in the CWS and recruited a national championship team.

Does he prefer a catcher who can catch or a catcher who can bat?

Elander would be a homerun hire and should keep most of their roster/recruiting classes together. He's a great dude.

Given some of the situations he's been involved in, it will be interesting to see the reasoning here, if it ever becomes known.
322 on ignore and counting. Maybe you will be next!

Not a good situation. It's best for all parties if this goes away quietly.

Avent is showing up on a few short lists for the Tennessee job. I can't see him taking it this late in his career.



Trying to find the other list that I saw.

Avent haters will have a hard time with this - Avent being on a candidate list for what is currently one of the top jobs in college baseball.

Makes sense but also there's just no way Avent is taking a new job at this point in his career

Tennessee fans aren't going to want a coach from NC State on the back end of his career. I love EA and I'm sure he would be successful, but those people ain't gonna want him.
