I think the holdup is that White and his poker buddies have a betting line to see how high the page count will go on this thread.

So if its the Marshall coach her resume is this her 1st year coaching d1 get blown out in 1st round. Great credentials. So this who we get rid of Kellie for and she gone bring top recruits in, a coach that they don't even know about.. ok

She won’t bring in top recruits if it’s her, we will be back here again in about 3 years.

That’s the only reason I’m suspicious it is her. The chips don’t add up.

So are Stephens and Caldwell the same person? Or is this some kind of Earth-2 Imaginary Tale?

I was wondering the same

I have to say I’m very curious as to whether we can hit 200 before the coach is announced.

Has Cora or Maria confirmed?

If Kim Caldwell gets the job — justice for Kellie Harper!

 

[Ovol]

DW is reading this and laughing his ass off while hammering the contract details with TOSU or the FGC coach. Or not.

She won’t bring in too recruits if it’s her, we will be back here again in about 3 years.

?

Top recruits are signing with programs that have never been power teams the last few years. Nil and the prestige of playing for a blue blood program will attract players regardless of who the coach is.

I'm not sure I could ever get over firing Harper for someone who isn't an upgrade. This is after Holly too. Hoping these reports are wrong.

Like with Kellie?

Gotta let that grudge go regardless of who the next coach is.

We were in the top two or three with several but NIL wasn’t there.

I don’t follow all the Nil talk, so why haven’t we been able to get them consistently?

If your gonna go the mid major and don't land one of the top P5 Coaches, At least go get the best Mid Major coach in Lisa Fortier at Gonzaga, who averages 27 wins a year over 10 years, won her conference 8/10 years. And plays tough non con schedule against big programs and won her share. She only makes like 600k/year so very affordable. And recruits internationally.

Better hope it’s A LOT more NIL than with Kellie bc we are going to have to outbid the major players until Caldwell shows that she is for real on this level.

Can I have a reliable source and not just speculation on a forum?

Wouldn’t be holding a grudge IF true. Would I be disappointed till I saw that she could win (and recruit) big at this level? Absolutely and unapologetically.

Can I get a witness??!!

 

[VA_VOLFAN]

I’ve enjoyed these 323 pages we’ve had, but damn, I can’t wait until it’s not Caldwell so we can put this foolishness about her being the coach to a rest.

Haha crazy right ? But what if it is her

 

[scienceteaching_vol]

My questions is how do you know she isnt an upgrade if it is her? I mean you wait to see how the team looks. Heupel coaching ability was obvious game one with what he did with less. You have to take a wait and see approach. Not a scorched earth one.

 

[Majors]

I have a feeling it might be the Ohio State dude. But I would be friggin ecstatic if it’s Hammon. A very bold choice.

OSU physically and mentally beat Tennessee from the start

It would be an interesting choice. Definitely a wait and see but without the goodwill of it not being a former Lady Vol, and I didn’t want another Lady Vol.

Emily Saunders sister Sarah played for her at Glenville State. Pretty sure the recruits we need probably have no clue who she is, I mean I had to google her when I heard her name mentioned

Idk if this is legit but another place stating the same
