First, it’s baseball, it has less eyes on it than women’s basketball does! 2nd, not DW’s fault Tony is making a dumb decision! In 3 or less years Tony will be right back to college baseball, and I hope the program that does hire him doesn’t have the resources that TN has POURED into the baseball program. Also at that point other coaches can use his failing in recruiting, so the shine wears off. Either way, DW still is going to pour money into this program that eve at the upper echelon has LOST millions of dollars with it. If Elander has learned anything from Tony on recruiting he will also do just as well here. Heck Tony’s in game decisions a lot of times were stupid, he got by on out talenting people, it’s why they have a ton of guys drafted. Tony was not a head coach prior to coming here, money was poured into the program and it took off. You can say that is Tony, you can say that is the money TN decided to pour into the program. You cannot though say Elander can’t do the same. In the end the baseball team will be fine and Tony will fail and look like an idiot in the process. No way I’d want my ego to take a hit like that, but I guess my ego isn’t as big as his to know that I can’t fail.
