LOL@Chris
I was hoping for that to happen. Now all that needs to happen is to have the coach from GVSU get the CMU job.
Uhg, I hate this shit. Poaching coaches sucks. You have all these big time schools that make shit hires and end up having to start over every 3-4 years. All they do is grab coaches and start the merry go round all over.
I don't understand why coaches can switch jobs whenever they want and the kids have to sit out a year to transfer. That's BS. make the coaches play out their contract.
Well most schools build in clauses to the coaches contracts that make the coaches have to "buy out" their contract. Now if their new employer wants to pay that out in addition to paying the new salary, that's completely up to them.
I do agree there is some unfairness here. The argument could be made that since coaches get paid and it's their profession, they should be able to do what they want. Again, I understand the aspects are different then most professions (contracts, recruiting, etc.)
With Urban stepping down, I'm thinkin the early money has to be on Izzo
Chuck Martin has left Grand Valley and is taking a position as the DB coach for Notre Dame. Clearly not a "glam" position persay, but if the D-Coordinator gets fired or takes a head coaching gig in the future you would assume Martin would be the next in line as a coordinator and it can't hurt having guys with head coaching experience on your staff as a positional coach.
Meyer only taking a leave of absence. Interesting.....
I was thinking it had something to do with recruiting ???
I don't think being paid makes a difference. I'm not under contract at my job. While they expect me to work here a long time (and I will), I'm not throwing anyone under the bus by leaving because I have no written promise to stay for a certain amount of time.Quote:
