2026 College Track & Field Open Coaching Positions Discussion

Which UNC, did I miss something?

Chapel Hill. They fired him after all his athletes didn’t make it to the final.

this thread is full of ball unknowers

Whats the latest with the Hoka position? rumblings of an NCAA assistant getting the role?

New mexico assistant to Hoka - similar to hiring Portland assistant
Miltenberg from UNC leaving for Nike
Tennessee administration asking around for names that will be interested in head coaching position.
will any of the old people retire? North Carolina State men, Virginia, Ole Miss, Texas A&M, LSU

Is this inferring that Brian Maty will be a professional coach in charge of a professional group? Is that honestly what this is saying?

If truly Tennessee is making a change they should be all over Petros. Bring Zeus back to the SEC!

Tennessee AD doesn't care to make a change like that. Hell, he fired the coach that took an NCAA trophy that year to hire a mess of a head coach. No way Vol alums are happy with the state of the program. Petros would be a slam dunk hire, but I highly doubt Danny White knows enough or cares much for a drastic change like this.

All of us alums are done complaining. Multiple years of complaints falling on deaf ears -- taking my time and energy elsewhere. Program will never win another NCAA trophy with Duane Ross at the helm.

Anyone have any insights into the program?

Got my rejection letter today. Curious to see who they go with, looks like a great opportunity!

I always just try to order one of the meals, usually the Quarter pounder meal. I find that I feel sick after McDonald’s if I order a bunch of small stuff off the dollar menu rather than just one meal.

Looking at how they've hired past coaches for thier other programs, I wouldn't be surprised if they didnt grab a coach from thier own conference. It also became pretty clear that they are only looking at candiates that have started a program from scratch before so not a very wide pool but I'm sure tons applied. Like you said a really great opportunity.

It's legit open. They want a sprints/jumps person who can recruit.

Any idea what the pay range is?

Need advice on getting back into coaching. Left coaching to be admin. Hate it, need to get back to my bread and butter. My training plan is collecting dust and needs to be utilized. I feel as if being admin would put me above other people for certain schools. What do you think?

based on what you're writing and where you are writing it you are not qualified for many positions
