Hawai'i throws coach going to College of Charleston
Candidates for LSU? Florida? Auburn?
I agree that I'd like to have high-speed, low-drag kind of assistant coaches who are go getters that I don't have to micro manage. What I think some people are saying is that you do NOT want to have assistants who are back stabbers. I've seen those kinds of coaches who go behind the HCs back and stir up trouble among the team, alums, or admin. It certainly helps for everyone to be on the same page with common goals for the team. To be otherwise is confusing for the athletes and stressful for the staff and clearly not a path to success as a team.
I didn't get that as a young coach and it came back to bite me in the end. I wish someone had calmly explained that when I first came in because learning the hard way posed hardships to me, my career and my family. So all you assistants who think you know more than your HC and feel it's best to go behind their back or to constantly be confrontational, you may want to reconsider your tactics and consider how you'd like your assistants to conduct themselves. You don't want to have a reputation as hard to get along with as that can really hamper your career aspirations no matter how much you think you know about coaching. Of course there are things that require you to report up the chain such as Penn State under Joe Paterno/Jerry Sandusky, but a lot of the back biting I've witnessed and even taken part in back in the day was uncalled for and should not have happened. A great thing to do as an assistant is to acquire and eventually become a mentor in coaching. It took me a long time to figure out that I didn't know squat and to seek out outstanding mentors to help me figure out how the profession actually works.
You have to be joking, right? That is an awful hire.

Interesting. Hawai'i finished phone interviews this week for the head coach, I hear.
Not true
Spangler's Facebook picture is back to BU. Also rumor is new LSU coach is Northeastern Asst. Mark Rinker (formerly asst. at OTC)
Nope. Just a grad of the school frustrated that they couldn't get the job done, not to mention the fact that the team was still run as if it were a D2 program (and a bad one to boot)!
The guy who named all of Eastern Washington's NCAA finals qualifiers got them right except he missed hammer thrower Jordan Arakawa. The common denominator in all of Eastern's NCAA finals qualifiers named is that they've all come since 2012 when SeattleU became NCAA D1.
If you want to use Gonzaga as the school to compare SeattleU to, they have qualified Shelby Mills and Troy Fraley for the finals in the last two years. Gonzaga's also qualified a women's team for cross nationals and a few individuals on the men's side. And that's since SeattleU's been D1!
I don't expect SeattleU to qualify anyone for the NCAA national finals every year as opposed to Washington & Washington State. At least one national finals qualifier every 5 years is a realistic goal. And that goes back to recruiting, and that's on the Steidls!
How many WAC athletes qualified for NCAA's? Big Sky > WAC

Oral Roberts made a hire. Anybody know what's going on there?
what do you know?
Glad to see some talk about what's going on at Seattle, I sent an email to coach Steidl on the 11th of June and decided to check to see if there was an assistant coach because she was taking so long to reply and found out she was fired. I didn't have much clue about her but it sounds like it was the right call. If anyone here knows who the new head coach is going to be let me know.
Pretty sure there's two positions open at ORU -sprints/jumps which they just got Carter for and then a distance position that remains open.
