I definitely think Neal would be a great hire...
Now don't get me wrong, I am sure there are other great candidates.
However, Ty worked tirelessly for IU for eight years. He was the lead recruiter for many of our star players and was a major part of why IU baseball stands where it does today. In the spot we are in now, we need someone that can convince the current players to stay and convince the recruits to come. Not only does Ty have the best connection to the current players, but he was also heavily involved with the recruiting of the freshmen-to-be (a very good class of players).
If IU is looking for a smooth transition and a face that will keep the growing IU baseball fan base happy (which I assume it is), I know that Ty would be perfect for the job.
No matter what happens, GO HOOSIERS!
