fsu jumps open

Dennis Nobles left?

It would appear as though the Hendrix assistant was promoted as his bio has already been updated. Where did Patrick MacDonald go?

Retired

Vanhoy sitting good where he is at. Gotta be happy with what the Smith's and Ole Miss is giving him. Can't see him going til he feels like he wants to take on the burden of being a head track coach at some point.

Not retiring, choosing to teach full time vs deal with that anymore

Ole mIss magic about to run out. He should get while the getting's good.

He still has some horses this year and recruited well. Should be just fine.

Is Casavant leaving Belmont? If so, where is she going?

By 'many' do you mean one or two of them? There were only 4 listed and certainly Dumble is getting an interview if he wants it. I think Ian Solof from Portland could be the 'surprise candidate.' He has certainly been on fire the last couple of years and has lead an all women's program for 10+ years...

To really compete at PAC 12's they need to focus on field events however...

At least two of them...and you left off some who actually were contacted/did get interviews so again, speculation...

Oh Yeah!!!

Huge loss for FSU. Nobles coached 15 or more NCAA individual champs in men LJ, women LJ, men TJ, women TJ, men HJ, men multi, and women PV. Tough to replace someone that can coach all events at that level

Not surprising that Curcio would head down to Elon. He's made that trip many times....for other "jobs".

I actually heard he was taking the Princeton job though. He's from NY so getting back close to home and just coaching men would be good for him.

You've heard it here first. Lonnie Greene to UCLA. Should continue the wheels for the summer!!

If you are going to speculate OSU might as well add Forrest Braden to that list.

He has a timing company.

Greene would be a good pick up for UCLA, but can he get it done in the PAC with powerhouse USC across town. I thin he is waiting out Lance Harter's retirement from Ark and he returns

Anything happening on that Cornell jumps job? The position is definitely open...

Rumor has it the Stevens Point job is still available, offered it to someone and they turned it down now they aren't sure what to do

The Hendrix assistant was promoted to Head Track & Field Coach and they are advertising for a Head Cross Country/Assistant Track Coach. If you read the story on their Track website it is verified. A ding dong SID probably incorrectly added him as the CC coach on that part of the website. Even reading his bio on the CC part of the site it says he took over as Head Track & Field. Lumping the two sports in together as people often do... anyway Hendrix CC is still open!
