Coach Search Options after Autry

[WoadBlue]

Call me crazy, I think GMAC would be a phenomenal fit at Butler. Though he may not have enough experience to get the job there. This should be the only job above the A10 or the American he should consider this cycle.

Small private school in midwest?

To me you don't make a big deal about your dad getting to see you play, and then turn down the chance to coach a car ride away from your dad.

But then again, happy wife happy life.

Question for those more knowledgeable than I am.. for all the negotiating for NIL assurances that we hear about, is this something that is actually worked in to contracts, or is it more of a handshake deal, business plan?

Really curious whether the ongoing mess in the AD and all the donor squabbling will be enough to turn BH - or other potential candidates - off from wanting this job.

I’m getting worried it is and we’re going to settle for Gmac. Hope I’m wrong

GMac may know the bleep-show that is our athletic department all too well and might not have much interest in jumping back into that fray, which leaves us with the guy with no other options: Hop. Hopefully cooler heads prevail, but the vibes aren't great.

Or the job is a great one and a lot of top notch candidates want it.

BH and his agent just know this game better. This will be his 5th D1 stop not to mention the time in SEC country which honestly is a whole other beast.

No offense to GMac and his agent but they aren’t on the same level with the back channels going on right now. It’s their 2nd real time through the coaching carousel.

Leaking to JAB and others that he was contacted by BC and GT is nowhere near the level of stuff going on right now with Providence. BH is gonna get top dollar and top nil he wants from us and I’m ok with the games as long as it ends up goo for us.

LOL Just so you know, Gerry and Hopkins and BH all have the same exact agent.

Trilly is definitely connected, I just wonder if this is BH’s agent trying to drive up the price or if he knows other connected people who genuinely think BH will go to Providence.

So then we come crawling back to autry?

It has to be, South Florida may be a better gig than Providence.

Exactly. Without proof to support it, I’m guessing that internal strife and power broker egos playing a part in major decisions are factors at virtually every school trying to fill a very prominent role for a flagship program. We’ve just so happen to be involved here, but I’m guessing if you go other places the situation may be similar..

Lallys are acting like they are the AD, the head of marketing, head of communications, number 1 donor, player relations and some. People wanna talk about AW, he does not have a bad bone in his body. Lallys are something else

If Hodgson ends up being the next coach and they're at least partly responsible for that...I'm grateful for it.

Sorry, my first response might have sounded like I was being a jerk but I was at work and just typed it quick. If you can’t see it all; it’s Alex Klines wife saying the Lally’s wanted Autry and everyone else gone for a year and hodgson to replace them. Someone else responded it was because he didn’t do anything for 3 years. The lallys also responded saying Autry and Kline were good people and when people are let go there’s a lot of anger/emotions. I think I got the overview of it pretty accurately.

Thank you.
