Gonzaga hired a head coach with only high school head coaching experience. Is it a surprise that quality assistants would leave? At first glance she has about a decade of college coaching experience. Who cares if her only HC experience is at the HS level? Most first time college head coaches have no HC experience at all.

I'd be interested to hear what this position is for as well in terms of it being a 3rd assistant or replacing one. I also question the statement about most first time college HC's have no HC experience before being hired. This school is a well known school with rich program histories in alot of their sports so to me it is interesting they went that route considering all of the experience in other sports they have. Its not impossible to be sucessful just interesting.

Its not impossible to be sucessful just interesting. Most first time college head coaches have no prior head coaching experience except maybe club. And if you want to compare HS to club, HS is a lot more similar to college because you have to manage a program whereas club all or most of the admin is being handled by someone else. You just show up and coach 8-10 kids. Now club may have more talented players, etc… but the experience is a whole lot easier most of the time than coaching a HS program. Regardless, the whole concept to act like her coaching a HS program somehow discredits her in anyway when she has a ton of D1 experience is laughable.

With the increasing numbers of open jobs and the interest in this thread, the being responsible for updating the complete list may now be too big for one human person to manage alone. It’s been too Much for one person for many, many years. I don’t think there are more openings now than there were a few years ago. But it is hard finding one person to do the job, let alone multiple people to update. Plus only one person can update a post. Just an idea: can more than one post be pinned to the top of a thread? If so, could 1 person do D1 head, another person do D1 asst/other… divide in a way that makes it manageable? Is that even possible. First page could then be entirely updates almost. Not even sure if it is possible.

VT has been having an issue where it won't start a new page until there are two posts on it, so the thread activity will say "vbman100 posted 10 minutes ago" but when you click on the thread, the last post shows before that on the bottom of a page. It's just to make it so we all can read the most recent comment at the top of a new page in the thread.

Assuming the Gonzaga program is fully funded a university like Gonzaga should have been able to hire someone with collegiate head coaching experience.

There are plenty of “fully funded” programs that are pay under 70k for head coach and only allow one assistant to make a average wage. Gonzaga is not immune to under paying or supporting the staff. Could be the reason they chose a head coach with no collegiate experience?

Have I missed something scrolling because the listed head coach also has experience listed as assoc. head coach at Notre Dame? 5-6 years of time there would likely be reasonable experience moving to another Catholic High School also in a region you live in. Am I missing something with this complaint?

Assumption University is also the Greyhounds (taking the assuming literally) and she has only been there for less that a year (short race) Ding ding! Coach is still listed on their site?

Coach has done a very good job at Oklahoma Panhandle State. This is a small school of about 1200 students in a town of about 1000 in the middle of nowhere in the Oklahoma panhandle. Going back to about 2012, the best season they had was 9 wins. Her first year was the COVID year. Each of the last two seasons were 20 - 21 wins.
