Coaching moves

[DnKSDad]

just saw this on twitter....

Sounds like a lateral move...

Pretty much, but they probably won't have a job at UVa at this time next year anyway.

Isn't Dex an ace recruiter for you?

Yes, but I dont think any current recruits on the board are coming solely because of him.

Is there any truth to the rumors of West leaving with them? They may as well leave now before the house cleaning after next year.

I have not heard anything about West as of yet. West is our key recruiter, if he goes, London might as well start packing too .

Possible commitment shifts coming along with this?

I doubt any recruits will flip based on this.

 

[jeffro151]

Also, if Diaco has a somewhat successful year at UConn in 2014, he will be a top choice to replace London.

 

[jeffro151]

Sounds like Golden to PSU is a done deal at $4.4 m per year. Dex is going with him, not to UConn.

Cutcliffe seems really happy at Duke. I'd be surprised if he left.

Also, Al Golden appears to be off to Penn St so who goes to the U? James Franklin?

 

[jeffro151]

Golden staying in Miami.

Former UVa linebacker Byron Thweatt joining the UVa staff.

What are your thoughts on losing the coaches to UConn Jeffro?? Alot of Hoos are downplaying it saying no big deal.

I think the loss of Poindexter is bigger than they are a making it out to be. He seemed like a good coach and a Great recruiter who has built some pretty major relationships across the state. Maybe his time was up there? He did take a promotion.

Or maybe he sees the writing on the wall and knows he may be looking in a year anyhow?? Thoughts??

That^^

UNC's Walt Bell, who was over the recruitment of Virginia, headed to Arky St. with Blake Anderson.

Nice - as a Red Wolf fan this perks my interest...

 

[HoHumHokie]

Welcome the ACC's newest head coach.....Bobby Petrino to Louisville.

 

[NickVT10]

I hate that piece of scum. I read something earlier that said he gave a player a hard time about missing practice to be a pallbearer at his friend's funeral.

I guess once you throw out the baggage associated with not having character, he's a pretty good coach.

I think he got a lot better deal than his mistress got.

Yup, he's a scum bag of a human being, but a damn good coach.

 

[757Hokie83]

didn't know this was a rule:

In addition, because Petrino will be leaving for another FBS program, he is required to "use his best efforts" to schedule a two-year home-and-home series between Louisville and Western Kentucky with no requirement for a guarantee to be paid by either school. The series is to be scheduled within the next 12 months and must begin within the next 12 years.

Reports: Bobby Petrino to return to Louisville

So I guess we'll also see Texas vs. Louisville and Penn State vs. Texans?

As bad as the Texans were this year with Schaub, my money is on PSU.
