2019 College Track & Field Open Coaching Positions Discussion

But even KD and Robyne are so... underwhelming

Man, I hope it is KD, because I HATE Cal and I know he would suck! Win/win in my book!

You guys are some damn stalkers. If you have that much time to look at that, no telling what/who else you’ve been researching.

Spend more time coaching your kids, recruiting, or securing a job for yourself. Smh pathetic.

KD can barely organize a single practice much less direct a whole program. They will have 1-2 stars at any given moment, but overall stink.

There is a reason he has never been a head coach.

Yeah he was so mean too. A coach should be nice and make practices enjoyable, give you options to run on your own time and do workouts on days you have a lighter class schedule. I never understood him being so hard on us.

Truth to that statement. There’s even a few D1 programs with no facilities and very little funding. You’d be better off coaching high school than coaching there.

Doubt Ohio State will ever have more than 1-2 stars at a time. Thats the type of school that attracts more kids that just want to wear the gear. Most of the gritty kids are going to other big ten schools in the area.

Don’t know how unorganized KD is but I could see that happening because he is so high energy / maybe losing focus. However what he may lack in that area he more than makes up with his energy and presence.

All he has to do is hire people around him that are organized or any other skills he lacks. Not that hard to do.

Time to get this party started!

The Monday after NCAAs! Let’s get this show on the road!

Who’s going to Mississippi State? My Guess is they hire Chris Woods

Who are they looking at for USF? My Guess is a few assistants were approached at the NCAA meet.

What’s going on at Jackson State? Are they hiring a new head for women or combining the program?

Who is Dion Miller hiring to assist him to pick up where ASU is lacking in the sprints? Perhaps a colleague from Alabama or Texas Tech?

Who is taking a cue from the USF AD and restructuring their failing track programs? Tennessee, Memphis, Ole Miss, Clemson???

Also who is going to Cal? Seems like the votes are in and it will be the Olympian Khadevis Robinson

The week will be quiet! Don’t expect much unless Cal or Miss State actually make announcement, which is unlikely.

Charleston Illinois is a tourist hotspot!

for what CAL assistants make? hope he doesnt mind relying on a bunch of 25 year old entry level coaches

Dear lord, people really are stupid!!!

If you threw darts at a map with your eyes closed and chopped the closest program...you might be more accurate than this post.

Where did Brenton go?

You’re right about what Cal assistants make. Student service positions on campus make way more than they do.

However, highly organized assistants thirsty for a crack at one of the best public universities in the country and in the PAC 12 is NOT hard to come by.

I’m not going anywhere....I’ll be at EIU next year
