I doubt that Jay comments on this.

Anyone know where Freeman is headed? This hire is going to really be interesting to see who it is, who is retained, and who is looking for a job late july/early august. That can be a difficult task for assistants. Bottom line is if its an offense guy then a minimum of 1 guy will he gone possibly 2. If its a pitching guy everyone could potentially stay. Idk that will happen but it could.

Regardless who is hire I think we see a clean house unless bab stays in the baseball operations role..most coaches want their own guys

Ive heard since the 3rd paid assistant was shot down he was leaving. And it was also mentioned on the radio this morning. Is he not leaving?

I had not heard of this, but it sounds legit. I thought he was doing a good job....and his parents, who live in Ruston, were at every home game and were great people. They loved Lafayette and UL.

Has nothing to do with him not doing his job. Its about making a living. Hard to live off camp money for 5-6 years

Yeah I think this hire will shake everything up!
Bab might be the only one sticking around

Wells certainly earned another year. Whether the new coach acknowledges that or not is the issue. I don’t think anyone on staff would particularly be surprised if they were not back. I’m sure they wouldn’t keep the former staff if they took head jobs somewhere. It’s just an unfortunate situation to be in given the circumstances of why the changes are being made.
