WOW..... WHO is HE??????? Looked him up on Mississippi State website and there is nothing on him. Can some please tell me who he is?
Ok college coaches.... What's the gossip out there? What jobs are speculated to come open this summer in the Jumps/Sprints/Distance/Throws?
who did wcu and charlotte get for throws?
They only have a throws and distance coach there now. What happened to the sprints coach, she just got there.
Sounds like Wingate is on to phone interviews already.

I thought we determined the distance Coach is taking over.
Thought that as well. Hearing phone interviews starting soon.
Wingate has hired a consulting firm out of ATL to assist with the search. They have contacted distance coaches which seems confusing as well because there has been statements made that the distance coach will stay next year.
Doesn’t seem like admin has a strong direction with where they want to take things, indicated by hiring a consulting firm.
Strange days, when will they make a hire?
Heard 50k range for pay.
How reliable is your source?

Its a joke:
What University uses a "consulting firm" to hire a lowly Cross Country coach.
Even more, what D-2 university uses a consulting firm to hire ANY coach.
The Head Coach is still listed on the website. He isn't going anywhere.
I read in one of the ad's about the position, that if you have any questions, please contact Dr. Kurt Patberg directly. I sent him an email outlining some specific questions...including about a hiring time line. I did receive an email back stating this:
"Your official application needs to be made to the email address on the job posting that goes to the Wingate HR department. Thanks for your interest in Wingate."
Loyola of New Orleans used this consulting firm last year when they did their hire for XC/TF coach....

Well clearly he's now living in DC per his own twitter....
No doubts the head coach is gone. Schools take forever to update pics. I was under the impression that the XC Coach took over. Heard that this past weekend.
Google must be broken.
Link to the consulting firm. I've been involved in other searches where Kurt and his company were used. Not an uncommon thing. Can't say that it made sense to me at the time, but it happens.
Wingate would be best served to contact Joey Lynn at UNC-Charlotte and go after him for the position.
Surprised they are also going after a distance coach, also I would have figured they’d go after a double minority.
Distance coach just had a baby maybe that’s why she doesn’t want the head gig? Maybe she transitions in to a cushy administrative gig with the university?

Time to get this party started!
Time to ask what college/university will be the first to offer CoachJS headcoach status!
