the guys open things up with John Whittle of The Big Spur to get the latest on the naming of Paul Mainieri to the Head Baseball Coach position. Whittle gives us some details about the staff, and Mike mentions that Mainieri was speaking about Coach Tanner in Hoover this season. They hit on the two other HC jobs being filled for softball and golf. They talk about the late entry of Mainieri's name, and they get into the potential reasons as to why it seemed out of left field. Mike breaks down Mainieri's age as compared to other coaches around the nation, and they get into some of the process.
