Message: [QUOTE="Dillon77, post: 3548396, member: 6620"] Per Raoul, ND just posted this job description for Associate Head Coach. Those familiar with the corporate dance might point out that this means there is probably someone (already) in line for the post. [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.indeed.com/viewjob?t=Associate%20Head%20Coach&c=University%20of%20Notre%20Dame&l=Notre%20Dame,%20IN&jk=006da2e7bc91ff73&rtk=1e85ta91dhe7l800&from=rss&utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter[/URL] When Niele left for the Memphis Grizzlies, all three of Muffet's assistants were "Associate Head Coaches": Niele, Beth Morgan Cunningham and Carol Owens. When Niele left, Michaela Mabrey was hired (but as an assistant coach) an Cunningham was assigned to coordinate recruiting. The posting is for one position (only). So the questions: - Will Niele go back to the prior model and have three associate head coaches or (more likely, IMO) - Bring in a new associate head coach? While recruiting is mentioned twice, I'm guessing this person will just be part of an overall approach which will rely heavily on Ivey herself. Afer all, she's the new face of the ND basketball program and it's imperative for her to be the key component as she is now in the top spot. (Plus, she started the recruiting of most of the 2020, 2021 and, probably, 2022 prospects anyways.) ND has had remarkable stability at the assistant positions the last decade so this is of big interest to those on The Bench. Stay tuned. [/QUOTE]
