Steve Robertson joins the show on the Farm Bureau guest line talking Bulldogs baseball. Steve starts the discussion talking about the open pitching coach position for MSU and whether or not Southern Miss pitching coach Christian Ostrander, now the favorite to replace Scott Berry at the end of the season, was a top candidate for Chris Lemonis. Steve discusses the process of identifying and hiring the right pitching coach to get the Bulldogs back on track, from what it might cost to how long it might take to make the hire. Steve discusses the financials behind trying to hire away a sitting assistant coach from another program. Steve gives his thoughts on hitting coach Jake Gautreau and his future with the program. Steve discusses the offers Gautreau might receive in the offseason and where his motivation might lie as he makes his decision. Steve talks about the chances Chris Lemonis might be let go at the end of the season, and why the financial burden to replace a whole staff may not be worth the change. Steve discusses how a core group of young players staying in Starkville plays a major role in keeping Lemonis at MSU for another season. Steve gives his thoughts on what's happening at LSU right now and why spending NIL money to create a "super-team" doesn't guarantee you a trip to Omaha. Finally, Steve gives a quick breakdown of new football transfer running back Keyvone Lee from Penn State and what he is bringing to the Bulldogs. Learn more about your ad choices.
