Not UL related--SLU's Matt Riser

[cajun4life]

Shockingly SLU fired their head baseball coach Matt Riser after this season. Riser had been with SLU for 10 years and took them to 4 NCAA tournament births, including last season. SLU has been a formidable team under Riser, going 320-244 in his 10 seasons. Even this year he finished 25-25, I am shocked that they would fire him, just one season after leading them to the NCAA tournament and with the history of success he had had previously at SLU>

There is more to it. Not sure if it will come to light, but it’s not a black and white issue.

I gotta believe that Alan Dunn will either be let go soon and or be the head coach at Arkansas State. There is no way Tommy Raffo continues to keep his job based on the awful production he has had while there.

Tommy Raffo might be the most overpaid baseball coach in America.

One of the lowest paid, actually. Ark St has a baseball budget of about 850k, the only school in the league under a million.

Tommy Raffo is a very good baseball coach and they won’t find a better one for what they offer

We have a very difficult time with that latter concept here . . .

A young guy on the rise will get this job and win there.

This reminds me of when they our pitching Coach’s brother at Teurlings. Lack of winning was certainly not the issue . . .
