I know that not doing that puts him at a recruiting disadvantage that we can't afford. After the 4 error game this week given the "emphasis on more sound defense" this spring, the move does appear to have some questions.

I am playing a wait and see on this. If he has no buyout then I am perfectly fine with this and understand that it is largely based upon recruiting and we could end it after this year if we have a bad year. If he has a buyout, especially a significant one, then I am more miffed about it.

All that being said, I am beginning to feel optimistic about this season. We have some errors we have to clean up and we have to play better defensively, but the pitching (so far) has been good and they are limiting walks and such and the offense is at least all right, with room to improve. I'm fairly excited about the youth on the roster and how it can develop.

This is true. That being said, they haven't really made great recruiting decisions even when they've had more job security so I don't know what good it does.
