2022 College Track & Field Open Coaching Positions Discussion

What position on the staff will be female?

Is that trend still going? To keep more women in coaching

Tennessee will only have 2 assistants open, not cleaning house

Cite your source. I’ve heard the opposite

Add UGA distance to the list. Patrick Cunniff is out.

Has the UC San Diego Director position been filled?

At the very least it would be an awful idea to not try to keep John Newell. He’s had a lot of success as of recent. It’s also possible Ross could consider trying to keep Harnden on as an assistant.

UC San Diego - Head m/w

What happened at Iowa? They had two coaches leave before May. Haven’t heard about those jobs being filled

Will Tennessee abandon the field events all together? Would be ashamed considering some of the history in some events.

What happened to McGregor this time? The guy can’t hold a job.

He has been out since XC ended. Not sure if he has something lined up or trying to get a job elsewhere.

Is Miss St. going to hire a distance coach? I have not seen anything posted. Isn't Woods a 800m guy? He could handle middle distance and walk on long distance guys well enough. SEC is tough, and given the situation I thought it was a smart move for them to really go after events that have less scholarship depth (javelin, pole vault, triple jump, hurdles).

The situation there is odd. They don't compete at SEC men's XC meet, but they can run Regionals?

Same thing as last time -- sometimes second chances are foolish.

UCLA turning over?

Posting this morning for Hillsdale Head XC/TF. Did Andrew Towne take another job? Anyone know the story there?

how is Memphis distance coach still there?
