This just proves that women get priority for in hiring for some jobs. Chatham had male applicants who were significantly more experienced with way better accomplishments.

Prove it.
This woman so happened to be a better "fit" for this position. Is it safe to say that men are of priority for most jobs since there are more male coaches within the sport?
You cannot point to one male who has been hired as a head coach with as little experience as this woman. Here is the entire article about her hiring:
"PITTSBURGH, PA. – JUNE 26th, 2019 – Chatham Athletics has announced that Erin Gale will take over as the head women's and men's cross country/track and field coach. "We are excited for Erin, we strongly believe she has right mix of experience to lead our program forward," Athletic Director Leonard Trevino notes.
Gale comes to Chatham University from Transylvania University in Lexington, Kentucky where she previously served as the cross country and track and field assistant coach. Prior to Transylvania, she also served as an assistant coach at Division I University of Louisville where she worked with the coaching staff, recruited, and specialized in compliance and academics.
Gale ran for Division I Ohio University where she still holds the 3200-meter relay record. After her undergraduate career, she went on to serve as a graduate assistant at William Woods University where she obtained a Master of Education in Athletics/Activities Administration.
To Chatham, Gale brings her specialties in mid-distance and distance events as well as developing training plans, meet preparation, and administrative duties such as recruiting."
I'm not saying she won't do well. I'm just saying men will NEVER get hired to a head coaching job with that little experience. Her first coaching job was actually as a head coach - with zero paid coaching experience prior. For this job she had only 3 years of paid experience prior (volunteered at Louisville).
Could Erin have been hired in part due to gender? Perhaps. Is she less qualified than some other applicants? Who knows. I wasn’t part of the process.
What has been left out of this is that schools do interviews of candidates. Erin may have had a great interview that blew people away. Other candidates may have sucked in person. Some qualified candidates may have come with baggage or salary expectations that Chatham could not meet.
My point is, there were likely a combination of factors that lead to her being offered this position and however you all feel a lot it she impressed the hiring committee at Chatham and earned a head coaching position. I wish her the best of luck.

You guys keep ignoring this on the thread, but it's real and happening.
I will believe it when I see it...
It seems like a stretch that he leaves Portland. Doesn't he have a private business?
And if he wants to coach, could he not get something higher profile? Solinsky started at W&M, and moved on to Florida quickly. UALR is the very bottom of a DI cross country conference that could be described as average, at best.
In addition to that, who will Henry hire to replace Vince?

He interviewed at at least one more school at the same level as well.

It's true that women are a priority nowadays in the coaching world. But in her defense, she had the experience to back it up. Plus its Chattman it's a revolving door... she's going to get the head experience she needs and leave in a couple of years.
I've been on several search committees in the past 5 years that only looked at female resumes - regardless of the male talent pool. This is happening now, regardless of any "equal opportunity" bureaucratic regulations. I'm not criticizing...there's a lot of male coaches out there and kudos to these upstart female coaches...but don't pretend it's not a thing for goodness sake.
What’s going on with USF?

And which school would that be?
