Re: Coaching search
Would absolutely love ScottyB at the helm of the program.
Of the 12 coaches, Rush picked the one whose fans have the deepest passion, the longest memories, the greatest lung capacity and … did I mention deep passion?
Re: Coaching search
Hope he embraces our history and rides it like Miller has basketball. 4 NC's is nothing to sneeze at.
And beat ASSSU

The Gazette Journal reported Johnson made $117,480 at Nevada last season. He will surely receive a raise with the Wildcats.
Lopez didn't make a whole lot more.
Re: Coaching search
Yeah but Arizona is a much much better job. A lot of people would take a small raise to coach a top 10 program like Arizona.

Not really true. His base salary was only a little higher but I've read articles saying he made about $370,000 last year with his other sources such as Nike.Merkin wrote:

Re: Coaching search
Lopez was at 210K or close to that. At the base he almost doubled his salary. Young guy so that is exciting. Hopefully he can recruit

Re: Coaching search
At San Diego he had the top class in nation in 2008. Think I read where he was hire for strong west coast ties. Read he also had a top25 class at Nevada.azcat49 wrote:Lopez was at 210K or close to that. At the base he almost doubled his salary. Young guy so that is exciting. Hopefully he can recruit
I only follow baseball on the periphery of my fandom, but this seems like a very good hire as far as need and fit. Maybe not quite name, but he seems like a rising name, having success at two schools thus far.
Re: Coaching search
I wonder if any of his recruits will follow him to the UofA?

Re: Coaching search
So he has strong ties in Southern California from his days in San Diego, as well as Nevada which produces a lot of baseball talent. And Arizona is obviously among the best baseball states already. Good deal.

Re: Coaching search
Took his pitching coach from Nevada with him and also added a recruiting assistant that has worked at UC-Irvine, Cal Fullerton, and a couple other SoCal schools.rgdeuce wrote:So he has strong ties in Southern California from his days in San Diego, as well as Nevada which produces a lot of baseball talent.

Why would Johnson not be privy to those other sources exactly? My guess is he is.UAEebs86 wrote:Not really true. His base salary was only a little higher but I've read articles saying he made about $370,000 last year with his other sources such as Nike.Merkin wrote:

I was talking about at Nevada. Do you think the Nike and bat money is the same there as Arizona?ChooChooCat wrote:Why would Johnson not be privy to those other sources exactly?

Re: Coaching search
The Nevada board thinks these guys will all wind up at Arizona after 1 year at JC.
Re: Coaching search
That's where I would put my money. God bless junior college baseball.
Re: Coaching search
A real good article on how recruiting is going. http://tucson.com/sports/columnists/han ... 07551.html

Wasn't sure where to put this but I didn't want to start a new thread
