Report: David Pierce to take over as Texas pitching coach
How does the old cliche go? If you want something done right, do it yourself?
Texas Longhorns head coach David Pierce is apparently taking that truism to heart less than two weeks after deciding against retaining first-year pitching coach Woody Williams, assuming that mantle for himself heading into the 2024 season, according to a report from the Austin American-Statesman on Monday.
From a purely statistical perspective, the Horns have hardly struggled consistently in recent seasons on the mound, finishing first nationally in ERA in 2021 before ranking 10th in 2023.
