Leggett is a halfway decent baseball coach, but he’s been holding us back for years. He lost Corbin and O’Sullivan and never replaced them adequately. Bunn was a great hire, but he and the AD both dropped the ball and Kyle left a place he wanted to be because the situation was far more difficult than it should be for a program that pretends to be a major baseball power. Riginos needs to go so bad. I can’t think of one guy on our team in the last few years that really improved as a hitter.

The man has kept us in the mix every year, but I admit he’s got some issues, especially since his power recruiters left. The main thing I hate is how he handles pitchers, but I also hate how bobby Cox handles the Pen too and he still wins. I wish we’d get more power and less skinny-ass athletes with no weight to throw around.

Pawlowski recruited and developed some of the best, including Koch, Vining, and Benson, then left for Ariz State in 1999. (now hc at Auburn) Corbin was here those years too and left for Vandy, and the recruiting took a serious dip. O’Sullivan was a good pitching coach and now he’s gone to Florida.

Jack just needs consistency in the staff to improve this team and his recruiting, and with the AD letting Bunn run off in a lateral move to a nominally lesser program, I’m not sure Clemson is committed to doing what is needed sometimes.
