They do have their Head Coach job posted. Have an interim currently. Maybe just going through the motions with HR? Had more success this year than usual, with a player of the week honor and some good wins. Sounds like Samantha was a good soldier and stayed for a few weeks after the season ended for them. As someone who has followed the team since 2014, there has been some improvement as noted, but they have never really been able to challenge for a birth in the conference tourney. Many teams at WJC face the same fate year in, year out - IMHO, the school is not highly prioritizing their D2 athletic program to the point where I think it's fair to say they might want to consider going back to NAIA status. Huge new athletic facility to open in'24 seems to indicate and commitment to athletics.... |

Huge new athletic facility to open in'24 seems to indicate and commitment to athletics.... Quote from athletics website: In spring 2024, crews will complete phase one of the project with a new campus entrance road, walkways, terraces, amphitheater stadium, parking lots and underground utilities. Phase two, which includes construction of Carlene Basore Chrisman Center, will start when fundraising is completed. Built adjacent to the stadium, the multi-use facility will feature an indoor arena, classrooms, social spaces, student fitness center, offices and locker rooms. The project overall is ambitious and quite striking. It will remake a large portion of the campus. I hope you are correct and that WJC will also support their teams as well (budgets, $$$ for recruiting, coaches, etc.) but the fundraising for this project has been going on for at least four years. Note the statement above, "Construction of the CBCC will start when fundraising is completed." Are they close to their goal? I hope so. But you just have to look at most WJC teams results to know that it continues to be a struggle to field teams that can finish in the top half of the GLVC in any given season. |

A new HC opening in the B12 coming soon. Is it the super predictable one? Was WVU the super predictable one? Or is Texas Tech in there... Texas Tech has so many players in the portal right now that I'm wondering if that'll upset an AD and cause them to make a change... Or if the news was shared with them, they now are entering the portal before the move was made public.. |

Reed was good friends with the men’s basketball coach who undoubtedly had his back. When Huggins got fired, my first thought was that Reed better have a good season. And they didn’t. But Tech wouldn’t surprise me either. |

Sam resigned in July and Crissy stepped in as Interim HC. Not really a surprise that they would do a full search for a HC after the season. I'm sure that Crissy will get a shot at it, but IF Cal wants to be relevant, they should be able to pull in some good coaching prospects. |

Cal was a dumpster fire not having a Pac-12 win in the previous 2 years, and for a first time HC she rocked it. If I'm Cal, I'd be calling Greeny at WSU considering they don't technically have a conference, Rob Neilson at Utah State and Matt Jones at UCSB. |

Not sure this is the place to post this but I'm looking for some coaching for a college player in the Chicagoland area - West suburbs - over the summer.

Goldey-beacom (d2, de) is looking for a head coach.
Weird that the old head coach became the assistant and the assistant became the head coach 2 years ago.
Last coach went 2-48 over 2 years. 0-20 this year with only 5 sets won.
