RADFORD -- Joe Raccuia is right back where he started.

After five stops on the college baseball coaching ladder, the former Radford University baseball player and coach is expected to be named the new Highlanders coach today.

Radford has scheduled a 2 p.m. news conference to introduce the successor to Lew Kent, who resigned when his contract expired in April.

so I wonder who made the hire. Did the AD set this up before he took off?

probably so. or at least he was on the committee.

No love for Sid?

From reading the article it appears they actually got it right...of course, if the admin doesn't pull its head out of its backside then it won't matter who they get.

indeed i think they got it right. he is a radford alum, and has major college experience. i hope he can turn it around.

good luck to ya
