2019 College Track & Field Open Coaching Positions Discussion

what region of the country is said Miami Messiah coming from?[/quote]

Big East Country

Who did they end up hiring at Syracuse?

ALL track ends next year. Not allowed to compete any track meets whatsoever. Women’s cross country only!

Looks to be Griff Graves and Sean Hopkins as assistants with distance.

They will likely need to fill Holland Sherrer's position as he just departed to Mississippi State.

Chas Davis from Cal? Was at Creighton before

Things will be quiet until after the 4th. Anything up until that point will be speculation.

Who has Rutgers hit up? They must have tried Paddy, but he probably won’t take it. Would be a nice place for him though.

Okie St hired the guy who was volunteering this semester .

Anybody know what event group(s) Brandeis is looking for?

Herbster at Pitt.

Can he coach anything other than the hammer/weight?

yes. But you can say that about a lot of high level coaches only having success in one event and not others.

Hammer/Weight is not an event area. It’s one event. It would be like a distance coach that only knows how to coach the 10k and nothing else.

That may be a bit of an over simplification. The techniques used to throw the disc or shot (or javelin) differ more so from the hammer/weight as compared to the difference between a 10K and 5K (or likely the 1500 or 800 as well).

But, your point is well-taken - effectively coaching an event area is usually preferred to effectively coaching only one event - regardless of classification (e.g. throw, jump, hurdle, etc...).

Word on the track is that Memphis is looking for a hurdle/long sprint coach...apparently they SC a coach. Rumor is that their might be other coaches exiting . Stay tune.

Kennesaw State is hiring 3 assistants. Please contact me if you're interested or know anyone interested. 470-578-2801. It will probably take human resources a couple weeks to get it posted.

Proof?

It looks like this is probably true. I saw the ASUN finals. Thought they all did a good job. Hope they didn't get let go, but if they did, I feel sorry for them. I know one has a job already. Good luck to them all!

Please email me directly for this position. I am the all knowing and powerful leader of this program.

Holland is a great addition to Miss.State - too bad he is going to work for a THUG like Chris woods who is the most negative guy you ever want to meet and know and I guarantee will have Miss State is NCAA Violation trouble real soon....... piece of crap - Good Luck!!!
