USF's New Men's Basketball Coach To Throw Out First Pitch Tonight

TAMPA, Fla. (April 3, 2007) – The new University of South Florida men's basketball coach, Stan Heath, will throw out the ceremonial first pitch at the USF – UCF baseball game tonight, Tuesday, April 3 at 6 p.m.

Heath's press conference introducing his new position at the helm of the men's basketball team was held Tuesday afternoon on the USF campus.  

Heath, 42, arrives at USF after serving as head coach at the University of Arkansas for each of the previous five seasons.  While with the Razorbacks, Heath guided the program to a pair of NCAA Tournament appearances (2006, 2007) and an overall record of 82-71.  UA posted 20-win campaigns in each of the previous two seasons and 2006-07 was highlighted by a run to the championship game of the Southeastern Conference Tournament and subsequent participation in the NCAA’s.

Heath is married to the former Ramona Webb and the couple has two sons; Jordan (14) and Joshua (12).

I'm not even looking at that youtube video, but I'm guessing its the Cincinnati Mayor from yesterday's Reds opener.  Am I right?

LOL...that was a bad throw if ive ever seen one.  You think he would practice for something like that.  If he was that bad after some practice they should of had someone else do it.  You have to give some credit to that UMP for making it seem like a joke and throwing him out of the game after he got hit with the ball.
