Collateral Damage?

.....Do we have any of their guys interested in us possibly? How quickly schools can fall!

Yes. Rumor has it their AD is interested in our coaching staff. Lol

[SMD7636]

We are not even a top 25 team yet. Doubt they are interested in our staff.

Exactly.... How long was the App St coach there? And with a better resume (at least over time), and where did he go?

Can we stop with this.
We have not won a conference championship or beaten a So called P5 team yet with this staff. Doubt our coaches are considered for SEC jobs until we do so and if we do next year can we just enjoy the ride!!!!!
Geaux Cajuns!

Exactly. No P5 school, or even upper level G5 school will hire someone who only has two years of HC experience and hasn't been a top notch school.
This is not a knock on Napier. just a simple declaration of fact. There are too many coaches with four plus years experience that have put together impressive resumes over that time.

I agree I don't see a P5 team throwing millions at a 2nd year coach... Now Napier does have connections like no one else but I still think it takes 3-4 years of success before big boys come a calling

I really, really, really like Napier and think he has a very bright future. However, any P5 AD that throws $12-15M ($3M+ per season for 5 seasons like Louisville gave Satterfield) with only two seasons of HC experience at a middling G5 program is, at best, totally irresponsible and, at worst, an idiot.
