The University of Tennessee announced on Wednesday that head baseball coach Dave Serrano will be stepping down at the conclusion of the season.

Serrano is one of twelve coaches in NCAA history to take two different teams to the College World Series. In six seasons as UT’s head coach, Serrano’s teams went 157-160. The Vols have not finished above .500 in the SEC since Rod Delmonico led them to a 18-11 record in 2005.

Here are some names to be on the lookout for to replace Serrano next season.
