2018 College Track & Field Open Coaching Positions Discussion

What about Sullivan and Harvey leaving Michigan for Oregon?

Dolan and Metcalf could find their way into one of these smaller jobs?

If McGregor has been fired there’s no indication of that.

One does not quit a job without having a job. Fired for sure.

Metcalf isn’t going to land anything immediately until his reputation and reasons for getting fired cool down a bit. If anyone from UW lands a smaller gig it will be Jason Drake.

He’s well connected enough that he could at least land a good assistant job this summer, but doesn’t have any reason to when Washington has to pay out his contract for another year. So he can kick back & go hunting for a good head job next year that he’ll get. Dolan isn’t dumb enough to leave Santa Barbara...every other place is a sh$t hole when you’ve lived there for 30+ years. Besides, UCSB is going to have to pay out of their a$$ for what they did to him with his law suit.

How has LSU still not figured this out? Only thing I can figure is biggest names said no and they are waiting till after USAs to talk to lambert. This is what happens when heads treat assistants poorly I guess. Word spreads.

Hey a lot of conspiracy theories are not far off. This one has a lot of legs

And there is no "Sullivan and Harvey", at Michigan or elsewhere. Hasn't been one for 3 years now.

Can confirm, former athlete on the team (past 5 years)

Magley was let go from his position because the athletics program at sac is full of idiots who think we're some huge D1 power when we're really a half funded mid major that should be D2

Apparently Magley was not able to win enough conference championships in his time as head coach (according to the AD)

I didn't love him as a coach but he did as good a job as anyone and was certainly better than some other head coaches sac has had in the past..

At this point I don't know why anyone would want to come to sac, athlete or coach. The turnover rate is ridiculous for both.

We appreciate your insight. It’s helpful.

Apparently he is still a coach there...?

Then it's settled; we'all see McGregor coaching Samford distance in 2018-2019!

Go Samford

Nope

A few more jobs that have come up that I haven't seen posted yet:

Head coach at Catholic University:

Director of ops at Princeton:

If he’s such a great catch and coached an NCAA Champion then why fire him?

I don’t even know where Samford is TBH.

No McGregor is out. He told the team last week.

Samford, just like a lot of schools, is slow on their website.

yeah it's great publicity for our sport when coaches date their athletes and then go on to star in lame commercials!!!!!!!!!!

You want to call what he did dating? Really wouldn't classify it as that. The worst part is the coaches that are on his side and support him. Even know a female coach that defends him to this day, those darn seductive college girls are to blame I reckon.
