Per Kendall Rogers. Good for him. And maybe Berry can enhance the pitching; this is a good year to try a new coach, given the losses to the majors.

Potential successors as pitching coach at Southern Miss include current volunteer assistant coach B.A. Vollmuth, Jones County Junior College head coach Chris Kirtland, McNeese State's Cory Barton and Southeastern Louisiana's Daniel Latham.
Vollmuth has primarily worked with Golden Eagle hitters the past two seasons, but could be promoted to a full-time assistant if Berry chooses to adjust coaching responsibilities with the current staff.

If he's willing, hire Kirtland if Ostrander is unavailable. Potential successor to Berry. Plus he's won big in postseason.

Bob Gibson to Tim McCarver ... " What the hell do you want? You don't know anything about pitching except you can't hit it. Get off my damn mound."

I kinda like the SELA guy if we can't get Ostrander.

Can't imagine we have the money to make Ostrander leave? Did Goff not offer him at Bama? Was thinking I heard that somewhere.
I know nothing about pitching coaches. Latham was a solid pitcher at Tulane and obviously had success at SELA. I'm sure he would be a good hire.
Who knows, though? Most of Federico's staffs at Memphis were garbage. Was surprised we hired him in 09.
