I didn't want to take away from Elliott's retirement thread so I figured I'd start this one...

Kendall is connected but he has been wrong before. That said, I hope he's right. If someone else, look at Alex Sogard

It's amazing how well thought of EA and Chris Hart are by everyone but 1/3 of their own fan base.

I hate to be this guy but could Chris Hart maybe get in decent shape if he's going to take over? If you are going to lead athletes you should take your health seriously.

I asked before but other than playing here, what do we like about Sogard that would make him "the" guy over Hart or anyone else?

My issue is that everyone wins at Wright State but not necessarily at their next spot.

look up Rob Cooper, Greg Lovelady, Jeff Mercer. All dudes that won at Wright but couldn't really get it done at their next spots.

Now, to be fair, it's tough to win big at places like Indiana and Penn State but Lovelady went to UCF and couldn't get it done and he's a FL guy.

Sogard would be a cheap hire as he reportedly doesn't make much more than 125K to 150K.

Other than Hart, my favorite hire would be Dan Fitzgerald from kansas. He's a stud.

You've had some dumb takes but this takes the cake. And for the record, round is a shape

Just a fan of him...read a few of his books. Seems like a great human and coach. Would be the baseball version of Doeren. Probably too expensive though.

I say this out of genuine concern for the man's health.

Fair enough. I thought maybe you knew a bunch about his career.

I like his JUCO experience and his high major experience as an asst at Ark and Texas AM.

He's not expensive at all. Last I looked the other day, google said he currently makes around $350K which is half of what we were paying Elliott, IIRC.

I mentioned Dan Fitzgerald above...ESPN did a great write up of him the other day.

He's won everywhere he's been and he's currently got perennial garbage program Kansas winning the regular season and has gotten better every year he's been there.

When Jay Johnson took the LSU job, he immediately poached Fitzgerald from Dallas Baptist.

He's a big JUCO guy and is into analytics/data

He's just a baseball junkie like Elliott.

If Schnall doesn't take the South Carolina job, they probably throw a big bag at Fitzgerald to leave Kansas who currently makes around $500K IIRC.

Other than his weight, do you know anything else about his health. Avent has a beer belly. I'm 66 and have a beer belly and I haven't had a drink in years. Go the gym 4 days a week.

Yea his books talk about his career and how some personal challenges shaped his faith and humbled him.

I think a lot of the guy.

I've seen several interviews of his over the years and he definitely seems like a guy dudes would love to play for.

Lmao! Why are you guys mad about this!? I'm not saying every coach has to be an Iron Man. However his belly not hanging out like Santa Claus is a reasonable expectation.

I may be in the minority, but I would hope an actual search is conducted and the job not simply handed over to Hart. If he's the best candidate after the search is conducted, awesome. But do your due diligence to see what candidates he's being compared to.

Hart has earned his shot

We need someone who knows NC, SC, and Virg schools and recruiting

Also, we now will add another top assistant to help with recruiting and add some stability. I am sure we missed out on kids who wanted a more stable coaching situation.

Yes, they are telling all the kids that Hart will be the guy but I am sure opposing coaches used that against us.

Don't forget FL. Whomever the next coach is better be well versed in that state's talent just like Hart and Chrysler have been.
FLWolf
How long do you want to ignore this user?
agreed but I think everyone is down in FL-I think Hart will be a home run recruiter as the Manager

I know of two kids who passed on interest from State because of not being sure where Avent was in the coaching cycle and had action from other D1 schools. You put together pros and cons and that was a big con.

I know Rett Johnson's coach from ECA....he thinks the world of Hart. So we could definitely do worse.

Meh .

Give it to Hart . If it doesn't work after 3 years then try somebody else .

Not worth pissing of Turner & Rodon unless some no brainer stud coach wants it .

Chris Hart can't be in too bad shape. In between coaching NC State and traveling to recruit players, the man is also out here making babies. Hart has one young son and another on the way.

That's what I love to hear. A hard worker on and off the field is what we need

Question…
Would Hart keep the current staff? Seems like some changes could benefit the program.
