Still waiting for the names of those "much better jobs"...

 

I second that. Still waiting............

I'm guessing in terms of facilities, athletes, tradition and support - none, in terms of administration...every other DII job.

That would be pretty big for MBA but that's rough on a kid to move his senior year or for a dad to miss his las season

What makes one job better then another is usually different in the eyes of different coaches. However, I would say salary alone would make MBA better then all of those jobs listed.

If Gioia makes $450,000 a year as headmaster, you can be sure that the coach is paid well. When Bowers was hired, MBA also paid for his home. No doubt, a cushy job with unbelievable facilities, a large all-boy student body with good athletes and MBA is said to have so much more financial aid money available than the other DII schools (including McCallie). There is no end to the number of student/athletes that they can offer.

 

However, if it is such a good job, then why are the following coaches all employed elsewhere -Elliott, Bowers, Redman, Caudill, Hiett, Whitfield, Mathews and Rutledge? You might want to look to the top...to Paranoia Gioia. Working for him is apparently no fun. A very little man with a Napoleonic complex who controls and does not tolerate being questioned or challenged. What's so great about that? Have you ever seen him in tight, close games? He starts at the end of the sideline crowd, then works his way down to the center until he is standing by the head coach's side until the end of the game. Again, what's so good about that?

Are you serious? I don't know what is worse, MBA's sins or this list.

I think MBA's sins are objective in that it is now known that MBA cheats. This list is subjective and debatable.

 

What I find odd is that Ensworth is missing from it. High paying and wide open to go out in about a 50 mile radius and get the players needed. Thats got to be attractive to any coach.

Carton Flatt as the next MBA coach....now that would be interesting!
