We welcome University of Arizona Pitching Coach Kevin Vance to the latest podcast. In his first year with the Wildcats, the pitching staff improved dramatically and the team won both the Pac-12 regular season title and conference tournament. In this conversation, Kevin shares some of the key initiatives that drove this success, as well what important cultural adjustments they made to carry them out. We discuss the changing college recruiting landscape, particular with respect to the transfer portal and name-image-likeness dynamic. This is an excellent listen for players, parents, and coaches alike.
