Joe Urso’s Collegiate Coaching Career

I like Urso, and his success at UT has been tremendous, but I would go a different route.

Lelo also won 2 National Championships at UT and didn't excel at the next level.

Terry Rupp won a National Championship at UT and didn't excel at the next level.

Urso is not doing it with mirrors - he is playing Division 2 baseball with a Division 1 roster.

The entire model of success is built on something he cannot replicate at USF - getting disgruntled Division 1 players who don't want to sit out a year to come to his program.

I get that he is doing well at UT, but he is playing the system there.   UT caught fire with it's earlier titles, and is known as a DII powerhouse transfer station for DI ballplayers who want to pla

I think it's pretty obvious that Prado will be handling the day to day duties until around October/November when Derek Jeter takes over. Convenient time for him to retire dont you think?

My point is that if they think they have the guy, get him.  Don't let someone else snag him first.

I just happened to be reading, and I felt the need to make an account to mention that Shoupe would be a risk. He has done a great job with FAMU, but the ptiching staff under FSU significantly declined over time under him. The lack of pitching depth was dreadfully obvious in the postseason and forced a change to be made. I definately don't agree with the person on here blaming it on Mike Martin considering the pitching immediately got better under Mike Bell, who would be a great hire (unfortunately I suspect he will wait for a job in a better conference).

All three are different people. Every other D2 has the same rules ??? He just plays it the best. He does know what a Division 1 baseball player looks like it so it's a step in the right direction

Again, I like Urso and I think he is a good coach but he is in a unique situation. To answer your question, NO every D2 doesn't play by the same rules in the sense that he has the scholarship money to attract those kids when most other D2 schools have very limited funding.

You are correct that as a talent evaluator it would be a huge step in the right direction. However, that would be true no matter who gets the job.

Shouppe set up Mike Bell to have great pitching. Check out his recruiting class which includes FSU's three current top pitchers. Luke Weaver (first round prospect), Mike Compton, and Brandon Liebrandt. http://www.seminoles.com/sports/m-basebl/spec-rel/120610aae.html
