Rantards know more than major league hitters about hitting. Lol this place has lost it.
I haven't seen anyone claim they themselves would be a better hitting coach than Todd Walker.
Just that someone who has actually been a fricking hitting coach and a successful one would be a better hire than someone who hasn't.
Is that outlandish? Great players don't mean they're great coaches. And in this case it is a total unknown.

He’s coached before and wants to do it. He was a great hitter and not every coach starts at the bottom. Should he have not played pro ball and started coaching so you’d like him more? Hires like this happen all the time but for some reason our fans can’t wrap their minds around it.

It’s the high level of risk when giving someone their first opportunity to coach. LSU doesn’t have to take the risk

Let me clear this up. Bianco would bring his hitting coach with him from Ole Miss. He's a good one.

That’s about your level of maturity

An no coach starts at the fricking top.

Really doesn't mean much, there are some wonderful hitting coaches that didn't make it past high school baseball and some wonderful hitters that couldn't coach anyone up.

No, he can be a hitting coach at a small program and we can see if he's any good at that job which he's never done before. And if he is, maybe we can consider him. Also needs to recruit if he's a paid coach, does hitting well in college mean he can do that?

No, they don't. Not for jobs as big as this.

For 2 seasons at a high school
That does not qualify him to serve as LSU’s hitting coach, a position that has already left a lot to be desired for several years

Simply not true

You don’t deserve serious responses. You’re a clown.

Are we hiring Bianco? You seem to know something.

No one is moving through goalposts but you. No one is saying anything in this thread close to what you're accusing them of.

Untrue

Not sure but listening to him discuss his approach to hitting it makes sense he was the best hitter we ever had. I think he would be great at it...and he would teach guys to use the whole damn field!

Walker is already walking these comments back. Dude doesn’t want to coach
