On this episode of the Hoos On Podcast, presented by Joe Reed with Alcova Mortgage, Preston Willett welcomes new Virginia baseball coach Chris Pollard to the show just a few months into his tenure to take stock of his first roster in Charlottesville.
First, Pollard explains how the roster build has gone so far and how many players he expects to take into fall ball. Then he discusses retaining Eric Becker and his relationship with the Becker family before focusing on a few other returning Hoos like Harrison Didawick, Matt Augustin, and others.
Later, Pollard shines the spotlight on a few of the Duke transfers who followed Pollard to UVA like AJ Gracia, Kyle Johnson, and Max Stammel among others. Then the duo dives into a highly anticipated recruiting class coming to Grounds and Pollard explains why it might be the best he's had in 26 years of coaching. Finally, Pollard covers what UVA still needs for the roster and how the pitching could shake out next season.
