2019 Coaching Carousel

[BandAid]

i don't see why jonas would take that unless they really opened up the checkbook. tennessee loses a ton and we will be pretty good next year with daniel ramsey, his recruit. and from what i've heard we're paying he and ben johnson a pretty penny already for assistants

Is Jonas associate here? That’s a big step up. Barnes isn’t exactly a spring chicken like Steele either

[MITTENMUSKIE16]

From what I hear it’s a pretty substantial raise, unfortunately. I really have no idea what Jonas’s trajectory/timetable is right now, but it seems like a good offer. Hopefully we can make it worth him to stay, though.

no. but barnes isn't about to retire anytime soon and i think jonas is gonna want to take a head coaching job in the next few years, maybe even this year.

There are also conflicting reports on Ryan Odom - there's a reporter from the Washington Post who thinks he'll be announced at 6 PM tonight by Virginia Tech as their next head coach. The UMBC student newspaper and the Baltimore Sun are denying that report.

what is your source? how much of a substantial raise can he really get unless they pay him head coach money? i'm more worried about him taking kennesaw state or something like that.

Tennessee boards say Rob Lanier made $425k last year

[MITTENMUSKIE16]

Jonas made just north of 200k at UGA. Assuming he makes something like 250-300 at X. I’d put his offer for Associate HC at Tennessee at 500k.

Tough to turn down a job doubling your salary.

Jeff Goodman is reporting Virginia Tech as going to hire Mike Young from wofford.

[X-band '01]

One of Mick Cronin's high-leverage positions just went off the table.

Another high-profile hiring was Eric Musselman taking the Arkansas job after all. He had supposedly turned down the job earlier last week, but his hiring now official.
