Mainieri, Lee, Rooney, and Hendry sound like a really good staff. Although, Hendry is still working on getting his contract approved. I can't wait to see what they bring in from the Portal.

https://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/other/paul-mainieri-contract-salary-details-for-newly-hired-south-carolina-baseball-coach/ar-BB1o2CaZ Sounds like the board is stepping up some for all the Baseball coaches. $1.3 million for Mainieri

Do not forget that LSU associate director of program development and recruiting Terry Rooney will join Mainieri at South Carolina as his pitching coach. He is bringing a younger man with plenty of NIL and Portal experience to work beside him.

Is Mainieri a good coach? I bet Ray would say so. He started coaching LSU in 2008. In 2008, Mainieri and LSU swept Coach Tanner @ LSU. In 2009, they won the series 2-1 here and beat him in Hoover. In 2010 and 2011, our championship years, we did not even face LSU. Hmmmm In 2012 they won the...

I mean he has plenty of experience and a great history, but is he ready for full time coaching again? I guess with 2 great assistants he might be fine. I hope he finds a good pitching coach and some good pitchers.

https://247sports.com/college/south-carolina/article/paul-mainieri-south-carolina-gamecocks-head-baseball-coach-hire-232735094/ Interesting hire. I bet Tanner had already been in discussion with him before he fired Kingston.

https://247sports.com/college/south-carolina/article/ashley-chastain-south-carolina-gamecocks-softball-coach-232740848/ I guess Tanner already had plans.

https://bleacherreport.com/articles/10122679-south-carolina-wr-nyck-harbor-qualifies-for-2024-ncaa-track-nationals-in-100m-200m Last week they said he qualified. Maybe he is more interested in the Olympic trial than the NCAA.

The first year, a lot of people did not think Lamont was a good hire. Will his team keep impressing people again this year? I really like him, but none of us know yet if last year was luck or if he really did develop them to win like that. Watching how he played them and substituted them, I...

I saw last week where he fired Coach Smith from the softball team. I really liked her and felt she was doing a decent job recruiting, etc. She brought in a very good pitcher from the portal this past season and we brought in a freshman pitcher that was very good too. She has been here for 13...

I hope Nyck was alright. I looked at the top 9 in the 100 and the 200 and he was not in either. https://flashresults.ncaa.com/Outdoor/2023/001-2_compiled.htm https://flashresults.ncaa.com/Outdoor/2022/002-2_compiled.htm I figured his latest 200m times would have had him in the top 5.

As I ponder this more and more, and read more and more articles about it, here is my thought. I am thinking give Monte the HC position on a 3–4-year contract. His first 4 years at Clemson he got them to the NCAA Regionals. When he was first an asst. here, 2003-2008, we made the NCAA all 5 years...

I just started back myself last week. Haven't done much since 2020. I need a new pair of HOKA's. I know the couple that own the Fleet Feet in Augusta. Great people and great place to get running shoes. Just hard to go spend $120-$140 for a pair of shoes. My wife calls them expensive tennis...

I know having the club section will be nice. Still not sure how the view of the game will be going from the 40-45 yard line to the endzone. a few years back I sat up in 905 and it was okay but that is way higher. Back then we did not have the big screen yet. One time about 10 years ago I even...

With 12 student-athletes qualifying in 13 events for the 2024 NCAA Outdoor Track and Field Championships, it has already been an outstanding season for South Carolina first year head coach Tim Hall. Although seven of South Carolina’s 12 competitors are making their first trip to the Outdoor...

89 days until my favorite part of the season. Old Dominion will be at Williams Brice for our opener. We are already 17 pt. favorites. I hate that they put the game at 1:00 PM. That is about the hottest time during the day. I have had season tickets the last 4 years up in sec. 304 row 16...

Tony Vitello is at UT. His record is 287-110 since he has been there. But the thing to look at is his history. Tony had never been a head coach before UT hired him. In his 2nd year he had them in a Regional. In his 4th year they went to the world series. The next year made a Super and was in the...

I sure hope they get some extra NIL for Messina. It would be a shame if they don't try and keep him one more year. But it is not necessarily money. It really depends how high he gets picked.

Less than 24 hours later, Kingston was relieved of his duties. There was a team meeting held on Monday at 10:45 a.m. Assistant coach Monte Lee will be named the interim head coach as South Carolina athletics director Ray Tanner conducts a search for Kingston's full-time replacement. I think if...

Here is what Kingston stated, Do you think you have the support of the administration to get the program to where it needs to be? "I think everybody at South Carolina wants to win at a high level." And because his team did not win at the high level, maybe the administration should give someone...
