Kentucky Sports Radio is concerned about the future of Tennessee baseball coach Tony Vitello, especially after rumors of interest from Texas. Despite reaching the pinnacle of the sport in the College World Series, there are suggestions that Vitello may be enticed by the financial offers from wealthy schools like Texas and Texas A&M. Texas has already expressed interest in Vitello, prompting Tennessee to offer him a contract extension. However, with the possibility of Texas A&M losing their coach to their archrival, tensions are high as the coaching carousel spins in the college baseball world. The stakes are high in the College World Series, not just for the players on the field, but for the coaches who may be lured away by wealthy programs. It would be a real shame if Tennessee were to lose a talented coach like Vitello to a border state rival. Kentucky Sports Radio hopes that Vitello will stay true to Tennessee and resist the temptation of bigger paychecks from other schools. Only time will tell if Vitello’s loyalty lies in Tennessee or if he will succumb to the allure of Texas or Texas A&M.
