Rob Patrick has a contract through 2017. At Mick Haley is 100 years old and the football team is 2-3- St. Peter will call him before Lynn Swann does. Sherry Dunbar-Kruzan has a contract til 2017 and is married to the now-former Mayor who is still a local celebrity and an alum. Hernesman was only hired on March 5, 2015 and we've got him on a hot seat before he is assigned a dang parking spot! Duke not only lets their players take internships over the summer - they brag about them doing so, and you think they are going to fire Nagel because she lets her kids run congress and cure cancer instead of going to 5am lifts in June? That's not how Duke works! Does anyone know what Stony Brook PAYS their volleyball coaches? That's right, they don't pay them...not in Long Island dollars anyway. And with half the schools in the ACC already mentioned, we now have the 2015 ACC Coach of the Year and Conference Champion being fired from her alma mater WITHOUT KNOWING THEY ARE IN THE ACC?!? Anne Kordes has been the COY in 3 different conferences in 5 years, 3 tournament appearances, and spend two years as President of the AVCA. She is NOT getting fired this year. I know it's the volleytalk way but this topic IS DIFFERENT. Blindly speculating is irresponsible when it comes to firing somebody because you don't like 3-4 of their results this season (we realize half on Louisville's losses this year are to teams who will be seeded, right?). If you want to talk about job movement, talk about the hot assistants who you want to see run their own program! Talk about D2 and D3 coaches who are earning their chance to move up - and haven't already said no 7 times like Starky and McDowell. Or maybe you KNOW something and then by all means, but speculation does nothing but hurt people on this topic. +1

What's up with kordes and Louisville? One NCAA appearance and now this year losing to wake forest among others. When did they change to the ACC? Yes, they made the tourney last year and not anxious to list her seat as hot. But that's a nice gym, some easy recruiting trips, and a competitive yet winnable conference. They have suffered their fair share of injuries and transfers, but they shouldn't be losing to some of the teams they are losing to. Their class of 2017 should provide them with some ball control (no. 60 senior ace) along with a setter from Chicago area. They also apparently have a foreign OH girl coming too. Hopefully things turn around because athletics are prioritized at Louisville. I remember the days when the entire Louisville roster was foreign. And unfortunately the last statement is true, Jurich has prioritized athletics over integrity.

Since Binghamton is in America East I'm surprised that anyone even brings them up but let me assure you Glenn is safe as long as he wants to be there. He's made the NCAA tourney a number of times and is the only coach they've had since going D1. Coley at Stonybrook should be safe too. It's really tough to recruit in that area and she's hasn't been there that long. And I agree 100% that putting Kordes in this conversation is ridiculous! No more needs to be said regarding Louisville!

As we get underway with the league schedules. just curious which coaches might be feeling the heat a little bit? With the amount of movement last off season in the coaching ranks, will this off season be the same? Although he is only into his first season the TTU coach has a really good chance of going 0-fer in the Big12, lot of average freshman on board, played a very weak preseason schedule, and a staff that is not helping. Don't see him lasting very long looks like he will struggle recruiting like his predecessors did.

TTU lost to TCU 1-3 on Sep 21. I agree with other parts, though.

No more needs to be said regarding Louisville! Binghamton AD doesn't give a s--t about volleyball, so as long as players and parents are happy Glenn is safe! Not so sure about Stony. Coley and her husband where hired in 2013 and results are getting worst every year. She started 17-15, 2015 - 12-19 and this year is 4-13 so far. If I am not mistaken she had 4 years contract. So I guess her position is debatable.

If she's on the hot seat, then they must be telling her that only their conference record matters because that's not the schedule of a coach that is feeling pressure to improve her overall record.

Interim coach is the assistant softball coach? Yikes. I want to keep an eye on that record but I know I'll forget...

Something off-the-court happened here and they needed someone on-campus to step in. Yeah that definitely appears to be the case. It's none of my business but it raises so many questions in my mind: do they not have an assistant coach to serve as interim, is there some sort of ongoing investigation that prevents making that move, how does the team feel about this, are they going to continue their momentum, etc.

I am pulling every bluegrass string I can find, and so far NADA on why - bullocks. And no I don't think many SIAC teams have assistants. They are one of the few that has a single sport HC for VB.

Can we add the entire Rutgers athletic staff, from the AD down to the water boy for all sports?
Football team just lost 78-0
last year their Men's Basketball team was 1-17 in the league
3rd straight AD is looking like a clown.
