Final Four Bound. Make us proud!

Have to assume Marquette and Brown have zero’d in on their targets and the process has begun. Wonder what and where they will search.

Please no. We want him back at Navy. But good for him if it is.

I agree, is that you RW?

It is not, but if someone knows him, tell him we miss him and want him back Maybe Chet is reading this.....

Maybe they should have hired from within??

Who will be on Marquettes short list?

Will Brown be the first to strike and hire a Coach before Marquette?
Have to assume several of the Coaches (Assistants or Heads) pm teams that will hear their names called tomorrow night will be on Browns list?

ND
Wellner
Wojcik

UVA
Turner
Cassese

Whats most important:
Attracting High Quality Student Athletes- ie. RECRUITING.

Starts and ends there. Who recruits the best and who will represent the program, hire the best coordinators and get the best players

Will they make a coaching change?:
- Ohio State
- UNC
- Marquette
- Brown
- Hobart
- Bucknell

Already Open
- Merrimack

Will they retire
- Danowski
- Corrigan

And who will possibly replace if those openings occur

Ryan Wellner, assistant at ND and Navy wanted the Brown job last time around- knows everyone, a lax junkie, coached at Chaminade and Stony Brook ( during some successful years)…..Jon Thomson would love the position - intense, Brown passionate, high character, wouldn’t talk for 48 hours after losing...

Caputo
Orsen (alum)
Unterstein (alum)
Wellner
Stevens

Long shots
Amplo
Warne
Ryan Moran

Lets look at all the sport programs at Navy. Army seems to be moving into Pole Position in nearly all sports. Thats the first thing I notice. What is happening in MLAX specifically, well I think some of the other posters have said enough for me to say, change is needed. Wellner Georgalas Chemotti (t...

- Jesse Bernhardt - Ron Caputo - Ryan Wellner I think you can add Kevin Cassese to that list but it’s not about how you start but how you finish. Let’s see how everything meshes Being a HC is not just about X’s and O’s, can you recruit top talent, can you run an organization; manage staff, raise mon...

A bunch of (Former) Navy Assistants making news:

Mike Phipps to MD
and
Ryan Wellner named D1 Assistant Coach of the Year

Not sure how to process #1 but I think I understand.

Along with the Hall of Fame Inductees. Your 2023 Coaches of the Year; USILA Coaches of the Year D1: Kevin Corrigan, Notre Dame D2: Greg Paradine, Lenoir Ryne D3: Jim Berkman, Salisbury IMLCA Assistant Coaches of the Year D1: Ryan Wellner Notre Dame D2: Brian Volpe, Adelphi D3: Justin Axel, Salisbury...

If College Football does eventually split, I can see tremendous growth. Clemson, SMU are schools to watch.

Next HC's:
- Ryan Wellner
- Kevin Cassese
- Jesse Bernhardt
- Eric Seremet

If I am Ryan Welllner, why would I leave ND for what is essentially a lateral position? The answer could be the answer to most things. Money. I’m skeptical of Wellner joining but I guess crazier things have happened. Maybe they give him a fancy new title like assistant head coach as well? Just list...

Great call on Georgalas. Thought his ties to the West Point area are strong and he was only holding out for cornell or army.

Syracuse Spec: - have to assume that they will go after acting HC or poach a Big10/ACC assistant? Perhaps give the replacement the next HC job at Syracuse? - who are those guys? Galloway? Torpey? Wellner? Caputo? Alberici/Amplo/Chemotti (local product) Or do you go younger and grab a relatively unte...
