Purdue has an open baseball coaching position and the summer recruiting session is big for the sport, so the Boilers need to work quickly. The NCAA Tournament will be down to 16 teams after today, so this is a lot like coach hiring season in the other sports: grab the best names while you can.
First off, there are some big spot open out there. Kentucky and Alabama are open in the always brutal SEC, which had 7 teams host regionals this year. The biggest job is likely Texas, where the all-time winningest coach in the sport's history is stepping down in Augie Garrido.
