Met Coach Prado Tonight

[BigShoop]

He told a great story about one of the UF assistants who wanted USF to move the game to Legends Field to accomodate the Gators.  Lelo agreed to do it, but then after he thought about it he changed his mind.  Every time the Gator assistant calls him, he asks if everything is cool about playing at Legends.  Lelo humors him by saying, "yeah, I got the OK from George, its going to be a fun night out there!".  He hasn't let on that this game is at Red McEwen Feield.  Basically screw the Gators for thinking they have the power to move a USF home game to accomodate them.  I thought that was priceless.

;D ;D ;D

Well those that have been on this board for a while have heard my "friend of a friend of a friend' stories regarding Bulls Baseball...

After reaching my fill of EC failures, I complained a bit (mostly to USF people that would listen).  One thing I posted on this board was that the major league scouts I know (a couple dozen) thought EC was in over his head - other than saying he was a "good guy" they had very little positive to say about his recruiting, developing players or managing a game.

On the other hand, most of the scouts think LP is a GREAT hire and they believe he will bring credibility, wins and respect to the program.  

He's a true "baseball guy" as they say.
