foxylady Posted July 26, 2009 Report Share Posted July 26, 2009 Nothing yet. According to HC, the screening process has started. 60 to 70 applicants. Hope to have someone hired by Aug 31. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rebelpower Posted July 28, 2009 Report Share Posted July 28, 2009 Aug. 31st seems like along time off since Coach Brown resigned July 1. That would be a two month hiring process...sounds like a problem with high school kids like Leonard committing to MTSU and Heady still in the balance. Seems like they would want to get this completed...UT Martin didn't take nearly as long and I see their staff out grinding the recruiting stone. Best of luck to who gets the job but they will be behind on the recruiting board. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King21 Posted July 28, 2009 Report Share Posted July 28, 2009 Behind? Maybe as a head coach, yes. But the assistants are still in place, and have continued their duties, so recruiting wouldn't be that big of a deal IMO. Should be hearing something soon.

rebelpower Posted July 28, 2009 Report Share Posted July 28, 2009 I really never heard of a recruit committing to an assistant especially assistants that in all likelyhood will be gone after a head coach is hired. A new coach will certainly want to bring in his or her own staff...I would think you would not keep staff members on board that didn't get the job done under Coach Brown. But then again a new coach may be forced to keep the current staff (not a situation many new coaches will embrace). Again, very slow process indeed if it takes two months i guess they are trying to save money! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One is from Lawrenceburg via Columbia St. The other is a TTU grad from LA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bkbfan30 Posted August 1, 2009 Report Share Posted August 1, 2009 Anyone have an idea who the finalists are-any leaks went to affirmative action to approve then supposed to be bringing in for interviews Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimbo44 Posted August 2, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 2, 2009 Anyone have an idea who the finalists are-any leaks. Went to affirmative action to approve then supposed to be bringing in for interviews No leaks just rumors. What is this affirmative action stuff? A good coach is a good coach no matter what! Unless it is a CYOA situation to keep lawyers out of it. That would be a catch22, need a lawyer to keep other lawyers off your back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bkbfan30 Posted August 2, 2009 Report Share Posted August 2, 2009 What rumors are you hearing-Im hearing a lot-can't keep up-You are correct a good coach is a good coach but I guess they are trying to be a school they takes care of its business on the front end instead of covering its tracks on the back end Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
senator Posted August 3, 2009 Report Share Posted August 3, 2009 I believe a person has been offered the job and accepted it, no contract has been signed because the coach wants to advise their previous employer and tech has a procedure they follow on all new hires.
