Have had from Sickles, not any currently on the roster. IMG brings players in from all over the country and feeds into all the major programs. 17 players on this year's roster are "BayMade" with 5 from those ranked programs plus a few from other very good programs around the state. ALL of the P5 schools are recruiting this area hot and heavy. I know of a few players that passed on USF strictly to go to a P5 school (ucf being one of those schools). The issue this year was the younger pitching didn't develop enough to get the job done and fill the holes created by players leaving. Many of those guys were very good recruits. Good to know... I don't follow baseball closely. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These young pitchers have had 2 years at USF and are not going to all of a sudden turn it around. Mohl's biggest issue was solely relying on the younger pitchers to develop and they each failed. Based on this unsuccessful relying on failed pitchers, I have no confidence in Mohl and he should be fired! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, he's coming back barring some major change so might as well buckle up and get ready for another wild ride Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who should he have been relying on instead of the younger pitchers who came from great local programs and had great records in high school? Were there better, older pitchers he should have played instead ....? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Instead he relied fully on the young pitchers who got torched all year! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skeen was another experienced guy and he was for the most part reliable. Other than Cebert, the younger guys never stepped up consistently. We did get some flashes out of Jackson early on and Dorsey. Grause and Gailey threw well as did Hudi in the conference tournament. Could be a precursor of good things to come.

Would assume any upperclassmen that is worth anything would be entering the draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like both assistant coaches are gone. Pitching Coach Karsten Whitson and Coach Bo Durkac are no longer on staff. Aside from that, LHP Parker Seay and Josh Cone are in the transfer portal. Seay was ineffective and little used this past season and only has one year left. Cone wasn't used at all, so I'm not sure if he was injured or redshirted so he has 4 years left. So CBM better bring in guys that will help him win alot more games next year or he'll be next Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
