Message: [QUOTE="Carnac, post: 3100956, member: 5798"] Wanting the next coach to have ties to Pat and the program limits the pool of candidates. What if the best available person to replace Holly has no ties to the program? Why restrict the search and consideration for "the right coach" to those parameters? If they really want to turn the program around and do it quickly, why not broaden the search to find the best man/woman that wants the job? What happens if they can’t find a suitable candidate with ties? Perhaps Phillip Fulmer (AD) already has her replacement on deck just waiting for the appropriate time to make the announcement. Once he decided to terminate Holly, it would not surprise me if he put out a few “feelers”, and made a few phone calls to potential replacements on the down low.
