Better for Harden to move on. He is to good for Geogia. He is the greatest Sprint coach in the SEC.

I think Tim Hall would have something to say about that

I heard Illinois may have a position come open

And Pat Henry? Mouse?, Edrick?,Hall? And about 4-6 others

Yeah, he's great. If only he could produce a women's 4x4 that could qualify and run 3:32 and score 2 points at the national meet...…..

Is harden over Men and Women or just men; their website just says Men’s Sprint Coach

Heck, they didn't even have a women's 4x4 at the SEC meet. Their best this year was 3:45.54. That's kind of embarrassing for an elite school. Especially when you have a 49.8 leg. Oh, wait, she didn't run on that 3:45.

That not his job he is mens sprint coach , Women's sprints falls on Althea Thomas

Who replaces him, who cares about a 4x4 they could of have won it if their high jumper cleared on more height in that pouring rain.

Ken resigned Friday after they won

Any idea where Harnden is going?

Would make sense if he took over from Meaders at UNC, if Meaders is retiring. Its where they both went to school, and they worked together at FSU before.

Ken to Texas

Anywords on if UNM decide on cuts yet? Heard today was the day admin was deciding on men's track. LSU throws still silent? UNC distance also taking some time now.

Althea Thomas was just hired last summer. She did outstanding job with what she inherited. Ken probably just too much ego for the Mad Greek. They lost the title in a lot of places. Like .06 in the 5k or defending long jump champ Hall failing to score or the high jumper struggling to get height jumping out of the Willamette River or any number of spots.

WKU'S Erik Jenkins to TEXAS.

Erik is one of the most underrated coaches in the game that is not at a national power, give him the resources of some of these other schools and he would kill it. He is a heartbeat away from any SEC Head Job if he wants it. So don't sleep on Erik Jenkins.
