New baseball coach

[jedburks]

And the new baseball coach is...

Drain Erstad.


I hate to say I told you so.

Not a shocker. A bit suprised it's happening so soon though (supposedly a 3:30 PM news conference today).

some people aren't happy......

 

[corn train]

No Scott Frost?

 

[jedburks]

It is happening so soon because Erstad was the #1 choice and he finally said yes.

I am among the people not happy.

Conspiracy theorists unite.

Mike Anderson will forever rue the day Erstad 'volunteered' in the program.

I never thought money could buy you anything you wanted @ Nebraska, but have now changed my mind.

Hanky Panky

I am upset. Extremely.

 

[Red_Alert]

Out of a field of 64 NCAA tournament teams Nebraska didn't find ONE worthy/willing to lead this program?

You pick a big donor with absolutely ZERO paid coaching experience at any level?

 

[iruletheskool]

But I'll hold my piggies in the pen til I see who he brings

 

[Red_Alert]

Was Erstad the cancer of the team for the 2011 season?

 

[Red_Alert]

I am LIVID

If he brings in Will Bolt as an assistant, I'll be happyish.

LIAR LIAR PANTS ON FIRE.

Osborne is expected to contact other coaches, too. But NCAA regional play begins this weekend, and Osborne has said he’d be inclined to wait until a team’s season ends before officially reaching out to one of its coaches.

Osborne wants quick resolution to coaching search - Omaha.com

How long is Will Bolt willing to hang around as an assistant.

That isn't a lie. Nebraska's season was over so Erstad was available.

 

[Red_Alert]

Erstad is a temporary HIGH RISK GAMBLE at best.

 

[jedburks]

Will Bolt is coming up tomorrow to talk to Erstad about joining the staff.

Stop trolling me Jed. I've got a plate full of crow to consume.

So whats his record as a coach then? Someone tell me we just went out and hired a popular name that would sell some extra tickets for a few games
