After Clemson athletic director Dan Radakovich fired Hall of Fame baseball coach Jack Leggett last Thursday, The Clemson Insider immediately put out a list of candidates to replace the Tigers’ longtime head coach.
Today, we update that list to show who is interested in the job, who isn’t and who Clemson is interested in. What will Radakovich look for in a head coach? Bill Wilhelm and Leggett set a high standard.
Since 1958, Wilhelm and Leggett combined for 2,116 victories. Clemson ranks as the eighth-winningest baseball program in the country. The Tigers have also been to 40 NCAA Tournaments, with 12 of those 40 years ending in Omaha for the College World Series.
