Cross country results are in, seasons have been evaluated, old distance coaches have had their last taste of the crisp autumn air.
What distance/head coaching jobs open up for next fall?
Include coaches for poor performance-at conference, regionals, nationals-and those predicted to retire because of age.
I'll start with the obvious #1:
Jason Dunn, Stanford Head CC/Asst. T&F.
NCAA #1 talent, not #1 execution; they have really underperformed at national championships the last couple years. If they had finished second both times, he would definitely be staying, but not with major blowups to #10 and #5.
How about Dunn goes back to Virginia where Vigilante has done nothing to improve Dunn's squad, 14th, 15th, and 17th in CC?
How about Vin Lananna offers Dave smith of okst. a job as head CC/asst Distance t&f.
I'm sure the asst job at oregon is worth twice as much as head of ok state.
How about this scenario? Dunn fired, Dave Smith hired as Head Stanford CC.
Or even Martin Smith, who's done more with half the talent at oklahoma than what Dunn has at Stanford. AND he worked at Oregon, so he has big-show experience. Maybe he picked up a secret potion recently.
let's see the villanova's women's coach and dave smith as men's coach hired at stanford to replace jason dunn. Actually, then there would be no parity at all in the NCAA, so lets leave things be.
Where were they before Dunn got there? Shut your pie hole and get off your high horse. You are sooo clueless. #10 last year, #5 this year. Is that improvement? I think so. Just because they are Stanford doesn't guarantee a national title. Jason has to get his culture instilled. He will be fine if A$$holes like you will step off and let him do his job.

How are these a$$holes on this board preventing any coach from doing their job? You must be Dunn or his boyfriend. Facts are facts, Stanford chokes when it counts.
