Don't think so ... see New Jersey Tech thread. Right after I hit SEND I read that thread and noticed it. Ooops. Don't post until you have read everything....  |

Word on the street is the new coach may be Niels Pedersen's father. Not sure where I heard that. But he runs a club out of chicago.

Dean is going to run Quincy's Student Fitness Center as well as teach some other courses at the Univesity. My guess is that he liked the school and will stick around for a while.
As for Niels, that is what I heard too.

Hey
The rumors are true from what I know...Niels SR. is taking the reigns of Quincy. This will end up being a terrible move by Quincy. Most people involved with Jr. Boys Volleyball DESPISE Niels. He has a well earned reputation as a whiner and a guy who uses the power he accrued over the years from USA Volleyball to influence officials and tournament directors for years. With the Premier Boy's folding in the next couple of years (word is they are "phasing out" the program) I am not sure how they expect to recruit Chicago. I know for a fact they will never get any kids from CVC or SPVB abd there are likely several others who won't send kids there.
Terrible move for Quincy...Koth worked his butt off and had made them respectable. Niels will kill that progress in a matter of a couple years tops.

Let me inform you guys that Niels will not be at the helm of the program. He will be serving as Associate Head Coach along with Staley. Ryan will be taking over the program within the next two or three years. So I see it to be incredibly unfair that you are going to bash the program's decision until you understand the situation. Niels has offered this idea in hopes that Quincy can move ahead with the progress that has been made. The program for the last two years has been stagnet and needs some shaking up. Roofan not quite sure you are in the loop as far as what has been going on there. I understand that you maynot like Niels but as I stated before it is not "his" program.

So, do I understand this right ... they will be like co-Associate Head Coaches with no Head Coach? |

Ryan will be taking over the program within the next two or three years. I had a conversation with Ryan in Austin and this sounds more like it. While watching a match, I noticed the Quincy polo shirt and asked him if Qunicy had named a coach yet. He said yes and in fact it was him but no press releases had been published. He didn't appear to be the type of guy that would outright lie so I believe he is under the impression he is the coach even if he is being provided some type of temporary support structure. I wish Ryan good luck in taking Quincy to the next level. I wonder how his recruiting is going? |

Smokeater,
I am in the loop of what is going on out there. Quincy was HORRIBLE before Koth got there. While they never were in the top 4 in the MIVA, they had gained a TON of respect from other MIVA teams and coaches. Were they down the last 2 years...YES, however they are still in way better shape as a progam than they were before Koth came.
As for the "New" situation. I must be missing something. Quincy came out with a press statement naming Niels HEAD Coach. YES Ryhen is the associate Head Coach, but am I supposed to feel warm and fuzzy about him? He was an average to below average player for IPFW. He spent LESS than a year under Arnies wing as like the 3rd assistant...meaning "Get the guys water would ya Ryhen!!!" Now HE is the person who is going to take Quincy to the promised land? Geez...this is the better alternative than Niels?
I am sorry, but things may have been stagnent as you say for the past few seasons under Koth, but I PROMISE give this less than a year or so and Quincy fans will be BEGGING for Tim back.

Ok Roofan, to be fair, I think Rhyen did more than get the guys water!  He wiped the seats dry after the time outs. ;D I am gonna agree with you about his talent level. He was not a very good setter (especially following Gisslen)! Funny though, he always thought he should be starting in place of Dennis. I don't think so! |

Now HE is the person who is going to take Quincy to the promised land? Got me thinking.... Is it almost a requirement to have played DIV I Men's VB to be a good coach in DIV I Men's VB? Thoughts anyone.......... |
