  • Yea .. Saal talked the talk at the beginning but now has done 2 very underwhelming hires. I don't think he's separated him self from the mindset that he's not at Murray State anymore. We can do better here.

    • Dude just finished 10th in the PAC in his 4th season. First season was covid then 8th, then 9th, then 10th.

      What a hire!

      He better have some dudes lined up otherwise this makes zero sense except he is Bros with Saal.

        • I can’t wait til he lists the reasons he made for this hire. Saal went from a B+ to a D- to me. He sure says all the right things but seems to be off on delivering.

          This has Todd Butler 2.0 written all over it.

          Bring back Hibbs if we’re just gonna settle for mediocrity.

                Sure doesn't seem like it .. though reading online .. I guess the other WSU fans are sad to lose him.

                  Hell no and I want to know how many other candidates were interviewed in the intensive national search that was conducted?

                    • I was heavily considering a big money purchase (for regular folk like me :P) with the baseball program for next year and now there’s absolutely 0 chance that happens

                      • Washington State athletics is in a really bad spot financially. I imagine this played a role in Green looking to get out of Pullman.

                        • I don’t have a ton of thoughts about this hire yet. On the outset it doesn’t look great but we shall see.

                          Las Cruces has to be a tough place to recruit, and I imagine Pullman is the hardest sell by a long shot in the PAC-12.

                          I get saying this isn’t a great hire, but if it’s a bad hire because of nepotism, then so is hiring Kevin Hooper.

                            The nicest thing I can say about it is this:

                            IF you took everything with Hibbs and last season and the transfer portal out of it, I guess it would be an OK hire.

                            Not a home run, but would be somewhat understandable.

                            However considering the circumstances he was in, it downgrades from like a C+ to F.

                              Thing is Hooper isn’t in this equation. Hibbs and this team and what was to be justifiably expected next season is. They don’t balance out. It’s like some guy dumping his girlfriend and given reason is she’s overweight then immediately starts dating a gal even heavier. I can’t make sense of it.

                              • On paper it looks like mediocre hire. However, I trust the process and our AD. I will not criticize until the new coach gives me something to criticize.
