Heard it was a player revolt. Can someone elaborate on what happened? I tried to find out more online but couldn't really get anywhere.

The season is only three months. I realize they work all year. Recruiting and camps. But the bulk of the hard work is during season. If you happen to be one of those coaches who really loves volleyball and coaching you probably do not consider it work. It's your passion. I think you may be mixing up HS and college volleyball? There is certainly more than 3 months of "hard work" even at mediocre DII and DIII programs.. In-season is the EASY part.

Part of the story just came out on. CMU Life Ummmm, unless I'm missing something, all it says at CMU life is the accusation that put him on leave and a basic review of his personnel file obtained through FOIA. And nothing else. I have a feeling this isn't going to be the shock and awe campaign you think it's going to be....

How about the University of Toledo? I know the MAC has dropped off a bit but come on... Last year went 0-16 in conference play and 1-28 overall. This year is on track to go 2-14 in conference play and 5-24 overall. Getting a bit toasty for Greg Smith i would say. What's the deal there? Not enough resources? Facilities?

Honestly it's crazy to me! Facilities are pretty nice from what I understand after a huge remodel took place a few years back. The coach had some success the first couple years with the previous staff's players/recruits but it seems like he doesn't know what he is recruiting to and was not able to maintain and move forward in a conference that is for the taking! Toledo is a pretty good area with a ton to do and the campus is pretty nice! Almost seems like the guy has given up... Sad really

A buddy interviewed for the job last time and didn't get the job. By what he told me, Toledo is a mid major's dream. The facilities, the campus, the surrounding neighborhood is gorgeous.

Yea I have heard similar things in regards to how successful you could be at Toledo if you know what your doing. I'm surprised the current guy has lasted as long as he has to this point.

Surprisingly, the University of Arkansas program hasn't come under fire. When hired 8 seasons ago, the current coach was touted as a "world class"recruiter and quite possibly one of the best in the nation. Perhaps he is a fine recruiter but that obviously doesn't translate into head coaching ability or team success. Here are a few points to ponder: after 8 years at the helm, Arkansas has yet another below average SEC showing (currently 7-10 with one match to play). They have imploded once again after significant wins against 3 top teams. The coach has somehow managed to lead them to lose 7 of their last 10 matches and quite possibly an NCAA bid. After 8 seasons, one of the greatest recruiters in the country has managed to barely win 50% of his overall matches and is way under that mark in conference play. He has the talent on the bench, I mean after all, he recruited them but he can't seem to get them to sustain their effort. Besides wins and loses, one might question his ability to work well with the kids and coaches be brings to Arkansas. Point in fact, from the 2014 team, he had 4 of 6 freshman, 1 sophomore, and 2 juniors exit the program. Plus he had 3 coaches abort. 2 of them had been there for just 1 year. While these stats seem a bit shocking, history proves they are not abnormal for this leadership. It's past time for the Administration to do some "rooting" around in Woo Piggyville.

Another disgruntled parent adding to the hot seat thread.........so cliché. I missed that when I first read it, nice catch. Also regarding the "3 coaches abort," Ben did leave after one year, however he wanted to get back to the Omaha area for family reasons. Could that be HC related, possibly, but I wouldn't be so quick to throw all three "aborting" on the HC.
