Not bad it only took Vowels 3 months to make this hire! That might be a record for him. It does look to be a good hire just wondering why it took so long to hire someone we were already familiar with. Welcome aboard Coach Vitale looking forward to an improved Softball program! Thanks for coming on!

It was a rocky road but this was a great choice. The best/most obvious choice isn't always the most obvious, if you know what I mean! The school is now outsourcing Background Checks and the new company, putting it kindly, is not very swift to action.
Dan is doing this because it's his dream. He has two daughters who graduated from U-D and both played on the softball team. He has great ties inside the local softball community and he knows how to teach up his players. That's what I hear most about him. He is in this for the long haul and we need to help him bring back the Program and bring glory back to Buysse Ballpark!

It is a talent to be able to interview an applicant and be able to know if the energy and intent is real or rehearsed. It is not something that can be taught. You either have the ability to read people or you don’t. Our AD has proven beyond any doubt that he does not have this ability. If our Athletic department is in such dire straits financially, why do we job everything out?
