I did some digging and my sources tell me no. But that was with some major digging. And if Harbaugh decides to leave the search will be put on hold for even longer. I'd bet if Harbaugh leaves before they name a coach, then the remaining time would actually get shorter. They'd rush through it and get someone in place quick so they can devote all resources to the FB coach search and attendant PR/media blitz. They'll care less about finding the best coach if a FB search is onging. I'd sure hope it would be done by Monday. Not only are you missing out on transfer portal, but if classes have started, you're going to start missing out on chances to train. Edit: The roster still lists all the staff, but we know Leisa is in Fresno. Are Fraisse and Reasor around keeping some assemblance of normalcy for the team? Purely speculation, but they both seem fairly connected with the Rosen's, so I'm not sure if they'd stay, even if they had the chance. I know I saw a comment about somebody thinking Reasor (DOVO) might follow Leisa since Fresno has that position.

I know I saw a comment about somebody thinking Reasor (DOVO) might follow Leisa since Fresno has that position. If this search is in any way similar to some of the other recent openings, the search starts with the senior sport administrator and then as candidates are narrowed down and brought to campus, the more the upper administration (ie: Manuel) gets involved. I understand where volleyball ranks at Michigan - - they have made it quite clear it is not a priority - - but if UM wants a high-level coach then the AD HAS to have a hand in the hiring. Even if the heavy lifting of the search is being done by others. That's why I fear a Harbaugh departure would set the search back. vbcoltrane made the point and I add my own caveat: If a new coach isn't in place before Harbaugh leaves, there will be either 1) a rushed search or 2) even less involvement from the AD. Neither of which make me feel good about the position. As for the website roster: I know for historical sake they will keep the coaches on the 2022 roster, but I would think they would switch it to the 2023 spring roster now in order to 1) get the previous staff off the displayed roster and 2) get the kids that graduated or are in the portal off as well. In the past this was something that was done pretty quickly into the new calendar year, but the new SID has left a bit to be desired compared to the folks we've had previously.

Classes resumed today, so maybe things will transpire this week and they won't be too far behind in the grand scheme of things. Getting the right coach is more important than getting one quickly. But even the right coach could struggle mightily if they don't get it done soon. … I been in the right place But it must have been the wrong time I'd have said the right thing But must have used the wrong line I been on the right trip But I must have used the wrong car Head is in a bad place and I wonder what it's good for The Night Tripper. RIP.

I know I saw a comment about somebody thinking Reasor (DOVO) might follow Leisa since Fresno has that position. Reasor sent out an email to the season ticket holders yesterday regarding the annual banquet (administration has decided it will be for players and families only this year), so she is at least still on the payroll as DOVO for now. I doubt any of the current staff will be asked to stay.

The people/committee that hire volleyball coaches are not really the same people who hire football coaches. It won't matter if Harbaugh leaves or not

The people/committee that hire volleyball coaches are not really the same people who hire football coaches. It won't matter if Harbaugh leaves or not I'm just informing people how the previous searches for coaches have gone in non-revenue sports. From what I've been told the AD had some (albeit minimal) involvement in hiring for baseball and even water polo in the last calendar year. If volleyball doesn't warrant at least a check-in from the AD then they are sending a clear message to all candidates where volleyball stands at the university. Granted, this is the same AD that I've only seen at one volleyball match in the five seasons I've been a season ticket holder and going to most games. So you're probably right.

I feel like this process is taking forever. It's only been 18 days since the accouncement. Of all the P5 openings, only Oklahoma {14 days}, Washington {14 days}, and UCLA {18 days} hired and announced that quickly and they all did their search before Universities were closed down for the holidays.

Sorry, but after the manner in which the Rosen’s were mistreated, both this season and during their entire tenure with a lack of institutional support by forcing them to practice, train, play and recruit to substandard facilities, who of any substance is going to accept this job? This is an athletics department that is flush with cash and they have mistreated a sport that could have been built into a revenue sport, but they chose not to. This is a world class academic institution but offers third rate institutional support to the volleyball program. It’s a miracle they have been as successful as they have been. So again, who of any substance would take this job? You get what you earn…

So again, who of any substance would take this job? You get what you earn… While I agree with a lot of your points here, 2022 was one of the most talented rosters since the 2018 team that made the Sweet 16. In the last three seasons they went 1) not making the tournament at all 2) bounced in first round by Ball State and 3) horrible COVID year. Something was clearly going on behind the scenes that us fans couldn't see. I've been saying all along that the top B1G assistants that have been thrown around as potential candidates know ALL about those warts. On top of that: Mark Rosen was the president of the coaches association - - he is as well connected as one could possibly be. Not that he'd be out there sabotaging the search - he's too good of a man to do that - BUT if any candidate reaches out to him, I'm sure honest answers would be a tough look for UM.

Any tea on who may have had interviews? No particulars, just that last week (before the CFP game) was zoom interviews with candidates.
