Coachery

[Woodlawn VOL]

It's getting awful quiet on the coaching front, here we are approaching midday. If something is going to break today it will probably happen between now and this afternoon. I guess it could get announced tonight and a presser tomorrow. But then again maybe this goes further. But I do believe that stoenerfumbles is telling like he hears it's whether it is right or wrong. I know I am ready, and hope we get us a quality coach that can win in the SEC. GBO!

 

[ABINGDON VOL FAN]

Idk. Anything I say on that would be my personal guess.

I'd Guess Campbell, Chadwell, or someone no one has mentioned yet.

According to Stoerner , no to Chadwell.

The further it goes, the more worried I become. It means the big kahuna has said no, as has number 2. Meaning we probably will end up with a Flek or an Elliott.

If you'll allow me to play doubles advocate for a minute, pre-madonnas are not a diamond dozen. So we don't need to be taking them for granite when they speak up. A lot of folks think we can just rest on our laurens but that's not the case.

I feel like I am back in school being forced to read Shakespeare again.

You're probably right. If he's considered, it would probably be 3rd-5th option.

Just seems like something has been done already. A lot of smiles and activity. . . though that could just be a side-effect of Pruitt bring gone.

i'm starting to think we need to lower our expectations on all of this... this is not my first coaching search and we always have our hopes up for certain ones but it ends up being someone way down the list.

I hope if we are down our list...we can at least get someone like Chadwell

I think if it's going to break today, it will likely happen between now and midnight.

So what are everyone's thoughts on letting Steele be the interim coach for the upcoming season while the search plays out? Would prevent a rush to hire that can lead to more Pruitt-ish hires. Plus it would get us through the initial murk of NCAA investigations and on more solid footing in that area. I don't really see anyone right now that would be the slam dunk that everyone here seems to want.

It doesn't seem likely, but I'd much rather that than hire Will Healy or someone we already know is not going to be able to do the job.

If we can get a top notch coach now, there's not point in letting Steele have the year. However, I'd be fine with it if enough coaches told us no that Steele was on the same level as the choices we are left with.

You’d basically lose a recruiting class for a year. You’d likely have more players transfer out.

This is excellent.

Moot question.

If you hire a terrible coach right now, then you've lost 3-4 recruiting classes.

Yeah there’s that too. Let’s hope it doesn’t come to either option

You would make a great meteorologist

 

[peerless98]

I’ll happily return to this and share what I know on these topics later.

and then? are we there yet?

 

[landscapingvol]

This is excellent.

 

[Enki_Amenra]

I'd say keep an eye out for team meetings from universities with coaches we're targeting. The players there are likely to be told before it breaks nationally.

Well, for all intensive purposes, that was the goal.

Napier would mean we’re committed to letting football decisions being made by the football coach. Novel concept right
