The Associate head coach has been created to help assistants get head coaching jobs in two ways.
1. The title sets them apart from the rest of the staff externally/image- wise. It gives a coach with the title a little more leverage if the head coach moves on they they may look at the associate head coach first before going outside. Another factor is it can be a way to get this assistant more money, again separating him from the others. This title also can be a detriment in terms of staff chemistry. Egos are bruised and pride kicks in.
2. The associate head coach may help if an assistant looks applies for a head coach position at another school. An Athletic Director may look at an Associate head coach with more interest than "just an assistant."
Remember that every staff is different in their approach to using the associate head coach title. There may be a plan behind it or just window dressing. Many programs and many head coaches have many different approaches to staff building.
You know, all the squawking we do here isn't going to make a hill of beans. BB, I love your passion, but writing all this stuff here isn't going to help your candidate.
Let's all take a step back and let Scott do his job.
As Caitlin Diaz's father, I would like to set the record straight. She has not asked for a release. In fact, even though she received other offers, she picked UL because she wants to be a pediatric nurse and UL has one of the best nursing programs in the country. And of course, Coach Reau's relentless recruiting won her over. I know this is a forum but before putting specific information as fact please make sure it is credible.
