[Husker] Baseball Changes

[Bob Beach]

  I posted this yesterday but never saw it appear. I am pretty sure what 
went wrong and it was my mistake. If per chance some of you did see it 
then my apologies for doubling up on you.






The Husker baseball team is undergoing some coaching changes. I am not 
sure why Sawyers is moving on. Unless I missed something the article 
never really says. It just quotes Sawyers as saying “Dee and I have been 
here five years and this place means a lot to us,” Sawyers said of 
himself and his wife, “but it’s kind of a thing where we’re ready to try 
something new. I felt the time (to do that) was right now, in order to 
be fair to Coach Anderson.” That could mean anything. In other words I 
don't know if the decision was Sawyer's, Anderson's, or a mutual 
agreement. It doesn't really matter other than we really don't know.


The one that I found interesting was the moving of Bingham. Anderson 
said in the article it shouldn't be taken as a demotion. It is just a 
restructuring. Technically that probably would be the case, But, 
typically when you are satisfied with what is going on you don't make 
changes. When the pitching hasn't been what it was under Childress and 
Anderson states, “I need to evaluate, (but) I have a pretty clear idea 
of what I think can win in this conference,” when speaking of finding a 
pitching coach it would seem he wasn't happy with the direction of the 
pitching.



This is still a good program with a good foundation. Hopefully the 
changes Anderson is making makes it even more solid.
