Just saw where Dave Serrano is coming back for another year at Tennessee. He is 130-138 and has never made the tourney at UT.
This is pretty surprising. I think that he's done an excellent job of getting some really high profile players and developing them into future professionals. However, he can't seem to put it all together on one team at one time. Last year I think he had some pretty solid pitching, but they couldn't find their bats. This year their hitting was outstanding and they even had some decent starting pitchers, but their bullpen was atrocious. He has some okay young talent, but replacing over 170 RBIs from Jackson, Senzal, and Rodgers is going to be extremely tough. Not to mention they lose senior starters, Chris Hall, Derek Lance, Tyler Schultz, and Jared Pruett. The good news for them is that their entire bullpen, save Cox, returns. It will need to improve quite a bit though.
Apparently they have a pretty solid recruiting class coming in and that may have been why they agreed to one more year. According to Perfect Game they are ranked 17th in the nation (UK is 8th). They are going to need these recruits to replace the excellent hitting they are losing.
I certainly hope recruiting class ranking (8th) would not be the reason UK brings Henderson back. By the time the draft takes it's toll and Henderson performs his magic ...Any recruiting class will likely under-perform.
