South Alabama pitching coach Bob Keller won't return next season

South Alabama pitching coach Bob Keller won't be back in 2019, the school announced Monday.

Keller recently completed his seventh season with the Jaguars, a stint that includes Mark Calvi's entire tenure as head coach. South Alabama was ninth in the 12-team Sun Belt Conference with a team ERA of 5.19 in 2018 as the Jaguars finished a disappointing 32-25 and out of the NCAA tournament consideration.

"We are grateful to Bob and the contributions he made to our program the last seven seasons," Calvi said. "I have a tremendous amount of appreciation for what he helped us accomplish during his time here, and wish him the absolute best moving forward.
