CLEMSON – Erik Bakich has his dream job, and he thinks everyone else will want to be at Clemson, too.
Clemson University announced the hiring of Bakich as the Tigers’ new head baseball coach Thursday, and in a press conference on the second floor of the players’ facility at Doug Kingsmore Stadium, he was all smiles as he let the world know his feelings.
“Hundred percent a dream job,” Bakich “This is a dream come true.”
Clemson was in the running for the postseason last year, but an 0-2 showing in the ACC Tournament shelved any hopes for making the NCAA Tournament and the Tigers missed the postseason for the second consecutive year.
