Should White Sox Hire Tony Larussa?
« on: October 14, 2020, 07:12:21 PM »
A historical note: Larussa broke into managing with the Iowa Oaks, the former White Sox AAA affiliate in Des Moines. Larussa was the White Sox manager from 1979-86 when Ken "Hawk" Harrelson as White Sox general manager made one of the biggest unforced errors in White Sox history by firing Tony Larussa.

Not relevant here, but Tony Larussa is a graduate of FSU College of Law - a fellow alum. White Sox to interview Tony Larussa

The clubhouse champagne will be flowing if he wins the World Series. I don't want it to be dry.

Too late. I'd rather go young, or Ozzie.

Bigger question is replacing Don Cooper.

After the scandal in 1919, they were referred to as the Black Sox. Probably would not fly today.
