Case in point Oklahoma’s last distance coach who previously coached the highly successful XC runners at Southern. That was one of the worse hires in the last few years. All of the kids didn’t like her and most transferred

No he did not. This kind of hiring is why the reason for the minority/female push. Unqualified white male hiring is the worse than female/minority because that is at least a directive. This man did nothing to earn a p5 gig as his first paying job.
The entirety of his resume is about who his father is!

Guys I'm going to save you a lot of time. Just go back and read this thread and the 20 other times the same conversation took place.

I always thought the Ray's were of hispanic or native american ethnicity?
Whether or not that is true is not relevant. Any hiring based on race or gender rather than qualifications and fit is not right. It appears Ryan Ray is not particularly qualified, but he does have a coaching background and is now the assistant to the assistant, so I'm not sure what his qualifications need to be for that particular job. Nor do we know who else applied and how they stacked up against him.
The big problem is when head coaching jobs go to underqualified people, whether they are white, black, hispanic, asian, purple, etc. It shouldn't be about giving anyone a job based on their race or gender. It should be about considering the top qualified candidates, then choosing from those the one that is the best culture fit.
where'd that female head coach from SJSU end up going?
The bottom line is that folks can squak all they want about who is or is not qualified for any of the coaching positions being discussed. Obviously, all that talk is grossly irrelevant. The person(s) doing the hiring are the folks whose opinions are meaningful. Like it or not, hiring is a highly subjective process which hinges on a variety of factors. I'm curious as to why it would even matter to anyone not directly involved in that particular team (athletes, parents, alums)? We all know that life is highly unfair more often than not. Are you all telling me that you all were always the most qualified person for every job you've ever obtained? I know I have not been just as often, if not moreso, than I was the most qualified. Congratulations to all those who have just been hired. It's an exciting time. Props and encouragement to all the folks who are still working for their shot. You just cannot beat someone who doesn't give up. Your time will come and it will be amazing.
There are still many dominoes falling in the collegiate coaching carousel. Perhaps the next one will fall in your direction.

Great post!
You're completely spot on. I will say that differentiating between Head Coach and Assistant Coach is a must. There's a lot of banter on this thread with regard to experience or lack of it. I firmly believe that the Head Coach must not only have running experience (the more the better), but also some previous coaching experience and familiarity with managing a program. The Assistant Coach in my opinion should have substantial running experience (NCAA-Professional) with strong communication skills and is a "fit" to the school/team culture. Yes, some coaching and or mentoring young athletes (high school) experience is needed but not the end-all and be-all. If any program can find an experienced professional and or ex-professional runner who competed at the NCAA level and prep level who is a strong communicator that connects with the athletes you need to hire them ASAP!
Good Luck!

He's been a volunteer for two years and is at a power 5 lol
He didn't even run xc in college and now he's a distance coach at Arizona
This isn't paying your dues
And how was this information acquired?
