His usual pacing back and forth in front of the dugout, like a caged animal, has been very limited this season. Going 20-1 will do that to a guy. I am NOT fearful of what will happen when Casey retires. Coach Bailey is being groomed to take his place, and from what I have heard, he will make an excellent head coach. Nate will develop the pitchers, the recruiting will keep the talent coming in, and O State will continue to dominate West Coast college baseball for many years to come. I am. You should be too |

You should be too I choose to live my life by not worrying about the things that I cannot directly control. Who is the successor to PC is one of those. Will he be hard to replace? Of course he will. He is a very astute observer of human behavior and of a person's potential to succeed, both on and off the field. If he has a role in choosing who is next, it will be a true passing of the baton. |

I would take a strong look at Andrew Checketts when we are in need of a change at the top.

Two things: (1) What knowledge do you have baseba1111 that PB would make a poor HC? (2) Mitchy Slick is one of my favs, but the Mariners need him more than we do. They have never been to the World Series, much less won it. I and some of my former players have had plenty of interactions with him and he's a good guy. What I said he's no PC. Not by a loooong shot. Just as JA was no RM. I also don't believe in the groom the next guy, and hire from within philosophy. It's not a proven route to continued program success. If you want some carry over keep some assistant coaches as part of the new hire deal. OSU is now at a place where kids want to come play baseball. PC is a huge part of that. To keep OSU at this level you'll need someone on PC's level of intensity about every little detail, coaching up coaches, closing the recruiting process. Also Bailey is what 60 or 61? We'd need someone younger as to not have to hire again in 5-7 years. Bailes graduated in 1978, 1 year behind Case, which would make him 55. |

U of I in 1978... makes him 60-61... right? |

Well lets hope were discussing this after the 2027 World Series and Casey's 1500 career win as a beaver. Yeah, I picture something like a Walt Disney scenario. In 2028, we'll freeze Pat Casey. We will thaw him out each June. Heck, by 2028 this may be a possibility. And my robot driver will fire up the flying car as we head to Omaha |
