Message: [QUOTE="dbmill, post: 4335783, member: 2504"] Terrific news about Coach Penders, no question about it. No question in my mind that he is a terrific fit for UConn baseball. Hard to imagine UConn baseball at this point without Penders, that's for sure. His ideals have really sunk in and become the center core to the ideals of the baseball program. One other thing. UConn has a great tradition of some of its ex coaches turning into amazing ambassadors and spokesmen for the school. Dee Rowe and Andy Baylock are prime examples of this. I can certainly see Coach Penders turning into a Dee Rowe role as well after he retires. Of course, to a certain extent he has already become something of a Husky ambassador while he is still active in his UConn coaching career. [/QUOTE]
