Replacement for Sean Allen?

[sbmcruise 4]

Since we didn’t hit much this year and recruiting for next year looks suspect, especially for non-catcher position players, Sean Allen, who serves as the Texas hitting coach and recruiting coordinator, needs to go.

“I’m not going to sit here and be 27-27 and not make some changes,” Pierce said. “So there’s definitely going to be some changes.”  Unfortunately the only known changes don’t make things better:

Brett Baty dratted in 1st round, slot value $4,366,400 NEVER PLAYS COLLEGE BASEBALL
Blair Henley drafted in 7th round, slot value $ 188,900 GONE
David Hamilton drafted in 8th round, slot value $ 162,700 Probably Gone
Bryce Reagan in transfer portal

 

Pierce signed a unproven Juco infielder and says he will sign more Jucos this summer.  We won't win big with Jucos, but can fill a need in an emergency.  Pierce's last emergency wasn't his fault, this one is on him.

Who could Pierce get to replace Sean Allen that would upgrade recruiting and hitting?

Berkman should just replace Pierce.

there are no changes expected for Pierce's staff and you will like it.

It is true that there are no announced staffing changes.  If there were to be any staffing changes, they would likely be after the College World Series was completed, since many likely candidates wouldn't be available until their current coaching year has ended.
