Topic: Goodman: D'antoni Out, Corny In

[herdly4]

Lazy hire. Marshall could screw up a free lunch.

[MUfan08]

I hope Danny can hold their feet to the fire regarding the final two years of his contract.

He had a ZERO buyout if we ended it early. Not on the hook for anything.

[2xBison]

Who is Goodman?

Hey look it's Mr I told you.

He played for some pretty good coaches.  Kevin O'Neill, Greg White, Gregg Marshall, Kevin Keatts, Jeff Boals.

That?s a coaching tree.  DD has none but Corny J.

On Corny staff news, I'm hearing Adam, Caldwell and Ryan Taylor are in. Cline is out and John Elmore is interested in his position.

Haven't heard Elmore.

Hoping he will bring in someone that has connection with Metro cities like DC, NY or Chicago.

Is Cline out by choice?

Not his choice

Get a recruiter who can attack inner cities.  Inner city recruiting is fun.

[Lord Haw-Haw]

Not his choice

I would have hired Mark Cline for head coach before I would Jackson. Where is this program going??

[miltonherdfan]

What's all this talk lately about multi-year contracts with no buyout?  How exactly is it a multi-year deal if the contract can be terminated at will at any point in time without a penalty?  Heck far, why didn't we give him a 20-year contract on those terms, why stop at just 2?

Is Cline out by choice?

This is strictly from a couple of sources, and they haven't steered me wrong so far. Mark will be 64 this year, has already cut back on some of his duties, due to personal issues. They do not for see him leaving entirely, but could see him taking a role outside of being one of the 4 assistant coaches.

The given is RT will move up to one of the four coaches. There have been overtures to John  Elmore, whether he is ready to give up on his pro dream is TBD.

As to DD, the feeling is he will eventually come around, he is more upset than his siblings.

Thats what I heard, take it or leave it.

That would be a great move. Cline needs to retire as well.

Elmore is a dog......an alpha

He will succeed as a coach imo

Go Herd!

My money is Corny hires Jason Slay as an assistant coach.

Maybe the deal with bringing Corny in was the only way to get Dan to step down and do so amicably.  I said a couple days ago I would swap Dans last 2 yrs for Corny if that?s what it took.  Then if Corny is terrible next year you cut ties and do a national search.  You know Dan wasn?t going to change maybe Corny can get some players in and win.

Tamar?

That's interesting

[HerdEcon]

You cut a forest down one tree at a time.  One step closer.  Maybe Corny can finish the job, maybe not.  Like everyone else, he has to start somewhere.  Give him a chance.  With the portal we will know in 2 years whether he can improve the program. 

[jdonaccbus]

Tamar?

NOPE! Jason Slay is who I think he will hire....currently at Illinois State, prior to that at South Florida and prior to that at Youngstown State.

It is Tamar's brother and Jason played at WV State when Corny was an assistant.

[herdman22]

White definitely had some great assistant coaches. I think Duhon could have turned into a good coach if he could have kept himself on the straight and narrow. Except for Duhon and that guy who brought in all the Europeans whose name I don't remember I don't think the assistants were able to do much or had much I input.

Most college coaches start out their careers as grad assistants or program support people, not as D1 assistants. They gain experience as a trainee and decide if they want to do the job as a career.  As we found out with Dan, being a good college player doesn't always translate to being a good coach. Hiring a former Marshall player as an assistant coach with no college coaching experience or recruiting contacts might not be a good idea.  On the job training doesn't always work.

The whole hiring process is similar to the hiring of Freeman. I not trying to be negative, but once again Marshall doesn't always do the best process of hiring coaches, I hope Marshall is not making the same mistake and repeating history.

That said, I hope CJ is successful. We will know fairly quickly how he will do with the roster makeover.

[Ovaltine Jenkins]

CJ himself has a DC contact who tried to send several players to MU, but there was no follow up or interest by DD. It will be interesting to see if he takes advantage of that relationship as head man.

Ot's the one who fixed Jon's shot when he was having issues.  i think he'd make the better coach.  but he isn't going to pull the same name draw as Jon.  But given the choice for coach I'd take Ot every time.

[svherd]

Williams, Caldwell, Taylor and possibly John Elmore isn't a bad staff. Obviously, they better bring in 2-3 fellas who can make an immediate impact. A very good PG and couple of shooters to start. No more Conner at PG, that failed.

A two year deal for Corny?
