    The Marshall head coach, Maddie Smith Lyon has been hired as head coach of North Carolina.
    the only coaches listed on their roster are volunteers.
    That looks like Holub may be going to UNC.

    Just a guess here.. if the coach is from the MAC.. Courtney Vierstra? Maybe? Not sure that's a big signing though. Hmmm

    I would assume the Marshall transfers are following their coach.

    I knew that about the head coach. I'm assuming that's why their 2 best hitters are in the portal.

    Ok. Super random thought. I wonder how Tim is approaching the porta this year. How is he going to convience pitchers to consider coming to Florida without a pitching coach at the moment.

    I agree with you, just hoping his pitching pick ups in the portal are better and more useful than the last two.

    Sorry, Marshal is Sunbelt and that is/was his target along with all 3 players. This is second hand and not directly from anyone on the staff.
