DIII Coaching Openings 2012

Capital University distance, throws and sprints. I here all the assistant coaches left.

What's the story on Stevens Tech. Did Crawford leave?

I think this is a great idea. A lot has been written on this board about DI coaching salaries, but if anyone has some info on DIII I'm sure many potential candidates would appreciate the inside scoop. Also, any heads up on additional duties that could be/would be included in a DIII position. I know that in some of the job descriptions they are looking for someone to do multiple tasks such as coach/media asst. etc. Thanks in advance!

Any day now, Al Carius from North Central will combust into a cloud of dust and ash. Some would see this as a potential job opening, but nay - only minutes after, he will rise from the ashes as a glorious phoenix to lead NCC for at least 100 more years.

You, sir, have made me laugh insanely hard for it to only be Tuesday. Thank you!

How do you apply for these jobs? I can't find them anywhere

Best post of the week. Thank you.

i wanna know also how do u apply? and are these jobs easier to obtain than D1? I don't have much experience coaching but was a D1 runner .

Sure it's easier...try coaching both genders possibly without any other full-time help, recruiting year-round if rolling admissions, recruiting quality AND depth for both genders and all events groups, recruit some more, and some more, and some more, then fundraise, then community service, then order apparel and equipment without it being in the budget, then fundraise, meet with facilities, meet with admissions, go over to residence life, stop by registrar, fill out letter of recommendations, return call to hotel, call rental car company about vans, stop by the bank, meet with injured athlete, check on pool hours, open up the weight room, get laundry out, get ready for practice, practice, return to office, answer emails about all four teams, recruit, recruit, recruit and go home after a 12 hour day. Get up and do it all over six days a week. Mostly, without anyone else to talk to except at practice. Oh, maybe teach a class or two on top of all that or handle "other duties as assigned by Athletic Director"! Might as well make it a 14 hour day.

Fun? Yes. Rewarding? Yes, if 100%, completely selfless. Difficult? As challenging as anything you will ever do if you want to be successful. Coming from someone who has done both D1 and D3: D3 is WAY harder than D1! It's not even close. You'll learn how to do EVERYTHING in college coaching (and much outside more). D3 XC/T&F is the best and worst job in the world all wrapped into one. Look carefully at the situation before you leap. Good luck!

Bethel needs a Head Track and Field Coach...and Equipment Room Supervisor

http://ncaamarket.ncaa.org/jobs/4815074/head-men-s-women-s-track-coach-and-equipment-room-supervisor

Sometimes the job listing alone tells you a lot about where your sport stands on the totem pole!

My favorite was a few years ago when there was a Head Men's Lacrosse/Men's and Women's Cross Country Coach position listed at one school.

For the person who asked where to find the listings - ustfccca.org/jobs, ncaamarket.ncaa.org/jobs and higheredjobs.com are the three places I tend to look first.

Look for a couple of positions to be filled this week. I hear that Amherst will offer a female.

Trinity head job is open? Did Dave Svoboda leave? he had not been there that long. seems like it could be a very good job.

This sounds exactly like my last position at a DI, not sure that all the hard work only happens at D3. My responsibilities include recruiting coordinator, academics and eligibility, coaching sprints and jumps, strength training, planning travel for indoor and outdoor track, and meet management. Of course this was for both genders and I was only an assistant.

Yes, he left, officially because his wife accepted a new job in New Orleans. Their women's coach, Jenny Breuer left at the same time. Mildly curious if the two departures are related.

They are related, as are the other coaching staff departures. Crap conference, going to the West regional, and the boss.

Not DII but an NAIA question.......Heard that Mark Heider may be out as head XC coach. Anyone know for sure and if so, who may be in line for the job?
