Word on the street is that Coach Angela Reckert has been let go. Anyone know the reason why? Just curious after all the chatter on the board about Duke a few weeks ago…

BROSNAN SMELLS BLOOD IN THE WATER, THE KING WILL RETURN
who would be in the conversation for the next head coach?
Brosnan goes to Duke after Reckart and Vinny boy tried to bring him down would be a beautiful full circle moment.
When a coach is let go, they disappear from the official university website pretty quickly. She is still listed so I assume this is just wishful thinking on the part of the OP. "Word on the street" is the same as "I just made this rumor up." Are you the "A titan will fall" guy?
duke messed up if they let reckert go. a real class act and didn't even get enough time to implement her training and culture... kids and there instant gratification culture have gone way overboard
Worst thing you can do sometimes is try too hard as an assistant when the director doesn’t care about your event.
Hustling in recruiting, asking for scholarship, taking your athletes to a distance carnival or different meets. Not having them triple at conference.
I’ve seen it many times before. Can’t be too ambitious, take your 1.5 scholarships and be unseen
Duke has has good recruits leave because of her and she can't develop athletes
Well well if this is true it’s karma at its best
Is this because she "took someone down" to get the position and now has been "taken out" ala some of the backstabbing that goes on in the sport at the assistant level, or is it something else?
Who will replace this coach?

They need to revamp that entire program of coaches
Not much leadership anywhere. From assistant to head it’s a s**t show.

100%!
Are we sure it's a dismissal and not a promotion? Her Instagram now reads:
"Head Cross Country/Assistant Track & Field"
"Duke University"
When this thread showed up a couple of days ago I checked her Instagram and I could have sworn it only mentioned assistant. She is still listed on the Duke website as Assistant Coach/Distance
One way or another something is going on. She normally posts joyous pictures of her two young kids several times per week. That's been absent this week
how does adam cooke even have a job at Duke? I'll admit some coaches are amazing despite never having run at a high level but many of them at least ran for a d3 program. Cooke, on the other hand, is slow for high school standards. Never broke 5:00 in the mile and ran a 2:13 800m according to athletic.net. How do such talented runners go to duke and trust coaches that have no idea what it's like to run fast. I suppose duke being duke is enough pull for them to overlook these things.
Since when do high school athletes check the athletic.net of their prospective college coaches to decide whether to run for them or not?
He's faster than Coach Vigil or Gags or Daniels. (I don't have an opinion on his coaching, but am pointing out some facts).
Hey Junior- Coach Daniels has silver & bronze from the Olympic Games.
Colin Sahlman runs 1:45 and Nico Young runs 1:47 in the 800m tonight at the Desert Heat Classic
