CTN is not particularly a fan of our coach, his performance and his decisions over the years. 🤷♂️ |

I also am not a fan of this hire, whether I like Rich or not. These nepotism hires rarely work well, and Alex doesn't have the resume depth nor the familiarity with the Indiana HS baseball scene (to be a Recruiting Coordinator at a top 100 program nationally) to argue it wasn't completely a hire based on family connection.

I am not close enough to the available assistants to comment on those that might be a better hire.
I don’t know Alex well enough over the last few years to comment on his knowledge of the local high school recruiting scene or the jc recruiting scene. He probably picked up a little knowledge over the years from being close to a top 100 coach, but I can’t be sure.
I do know that a top 100 coach with a .700 MAC record has made some pretty good assistant coaching selections over the last few years.
Who knows, maybe Ball State is grooming a long term replacement who knows the school, the area., the conference and who has a long term commitment 🤷♂️
Again, who really knows for sure.

I wouldn't be surprised if budget constraints limited the candidate pool.
