I think you mean Coach Johnson of Clemson.
No, his brother
Stewart left for the job at Illinois apparently.

With distance positions still open at big schools like Ohio State, North Carolina, Purdue, Iowa State it really also screws the schools their new coaches came from.
Don't forget Princeton cross country and distance track. Probably one of the most coveted coaching jobs in the country after Stanford, and it just opened up. Problem is the incumbent just left, leaving little time for the Head Coach to get a search started before the season begins.
Thought someone had written that Jeffers (PSU) had been hired. ??? Anyone with more info on this? Getting pretty close to the start of the season for a team/coach to be making moves. Both SSU and WBU were top 10 last year. How is this going to effect them, even if their coach is not hired?

A Midwest NAIA head coach (Not sure who)
I don't know the other candiate, but would assume someone in the region?
Any confirmation on the Wake Forest Sprints coach?
So her brother was a good runner...that'll make her a good coach? As we've seen before being a good athlete doesn't necessarily make you a good coach. So how does having a fast brother make sense? Your logic is flawed.
I have been the victim if one of these late coaching changes. I understand breaking NLI means you have to sit out a year, but I think I am good enough that a coach may let me do so. Who has scholarship money left right now?
Your signed NLI is with the school not with the coach.
If you leave, are you able to pay your first year of college out of pocket ?
all other sports besides football and men's basketballs are virtual sinkholes. When was the last time a volleyball program, softball or soccer program turned a profit? There might be a few program in the country like UConn hoops that due but not many. Our XC meets get more spectators than our women's basketball, softball and soccer games.

Track and Field is a money sinkhole. I don't know why people expect it to pay well.

It depends on how you look at it. For the athletics department its not a revenue generator. For the university it is. Lets say a typical mens/womens combined program has 70 kids. The max scholarships between both teams is 30.6 scholarships. That means the track team is bringing in tuition and fees for 39.4 more kids not on scholarship. That's probably about $800,000... more than any other sport can produce for the same.

Did you sign with Georgia?
I meant that another coach at a different school may be willing to give me a scholarship for this upcoming year even if I had to sit a year for breaking NLI. Still have 4 years to help.

If you break your NLI you can't receive aid this year

That is NOT true. There are ways you can break you NLI and still be eligible. Do you homework.
back to the openings
Who should Penn State look at to replace Johnson?

A coaching change is not an extenuating circumstance to get released. That is what this kid is talking about. I don't do homework, I'm the teacher.
RIP: D3 All-American Frank Csorba - who ran 13:56 in March - dead
RENATO can you talk about the preparation of Emile Cairess 2:06
Rest in Peace Adrian Lehmann - 2:11 Swiss marathoner. Dies of heart attack.
