2024 College Track & Field Open Coaching Positions Discussion

Wow, and in this day in age. people do not know how to conduct themselves ina professional setting wow.

It amazes me that people that has such low intelligence can even get a job and make it through an application process.

I agree

Very vague description. For what events? And where do they practice for track there's no high school with a track in the area.

They announced back in November 2023 that they were adding Track and Field for the 2024-2025 academic year focusing on middle and long distance. More than likely it's a distance position.

I’d avoid KCU at all costs. Money hungry admins with mold in buildings and zero support to compete against or with Milligan, Montreat and nearby Shawnee State. Also no facilities or clue on how to build any. Made throwers share time with pickleball players from the community on their “throwing area”

It was brought to my attention today from MULTIPLE sources that the Columbia's (SC) new coach was caught lying on his resume, and they still hired him anyway. FACEPALM. Not that it is a great situation, but it is unfortunate because there was some decent applicants that applied for that position. ( I did not apply). The rumor is that the new AD is tanking the program so that they can drop it to add softball.

Cmon man who else applied to a job at Minot State lol

The sprints HC actually did a great job this indoor season. I doubt they need to tank the program to add softball in any case.

Maybe if they stopped wasting time with the racewalk the AD would respect them

How any of you applied for this job and didn't get an interview?

ummm they already have softball... bad take, but the new coach has been at like each school for only a semester. But maybe he just trying to get paid more which is respectful to support family

Minot is getting what they deserve after screwing Mark over. Their loss because he is kicking it at Tiffin.

These coaches get waaaayyyy to familiar with their runners. They are not your friends, they are your athletes. Keep a professional buffer between you!

What the hell is going on in DII....

Coach Poppy has been at LU for about 22 years, I wonder what the conduct allegations are

My guess is he was put on leave for a lack of diversity on his Men's and Women's teams.

Not a single person from Asia on that team.

Coaching college is so woke
