2022 UCF Baseball Preview: 1 on 1 with HC Greg Lovelady
- Thread starter ucf1
- Start date
If they don't make the tournament this year Lovelady's gotta go.
Considering everyone in the AAC makes the AAC tournament, no.
He just signed a 3 year extension through 2025. doesn't seem like he is going anywhere regardless of team performance.
Noooo. He has lunch with fans and we haven’t been good at baseball pretty much ever. Why fire a guy because he doesn’t do good?
Schools in Florida is at a big disadvantage for Baseball, UConn is in a much better location *
It may be tough for NCAA to approve him. Michael Brooks got shot down last year after they made exceptions for all players. The reason he got shut down is baseball has a little known rule against mid-year transfers in the sport. That includes JUCO or 4 year transfers. They made that rule about 15 years ago due to D1 coaches picking up mid year guys and dumping kids from the fall. It was making grad rates look crappy so they stopped it. It was the reason NCAA stopped Michael Brooks last year or he would have been our starting 3B last year as well.
Just an FYI, the kid (Brooks) won the Northwoods League Gold Glove for shortstop this past summer so he's an elite defender as well.
