The University of Michigan will be looking for a new baseball coach as veteran coach Erik Bakich is expected to be introduced today as the new head coach at Clemson University.
Bakich coached the Wolverines for the past 10 seasons, leading his team to the NCAA Tournament five times. That included a berth in the College World Series in 2019, where the Wolverines advanced to the CWS Championship Series. They lost to Vanderbilt 2 games to 1 to fall one game short of winning the national championship.
