-Getting the first double-digit win season in program history.
-Finishing in the top four in the Big Ten.

Number 1 seems like such a low bar. He can just add a few more Anish cupcake specials to the schedule from this past season.

Number 2 is a pretty sad goal, because that one feels like it is just bound to happen as a matter of probability.

That university spent a lot of money on facilities and fully funded their team to compete. They’ve been in the league since it started in 2015. Those goals should have been accomplished some time back. I would assume to prove worthy of the extension, more significant progress needs to be achieved and quickly.

Yes, I agree with a lot of that. And, with Conry now having his players, and him having recruited quite well, it SHOULD be, at least close to being:

now or ever

PS-Number two is not a complete given in any way.

How many times can you talk about Michigan and say the same thing?

Yes, that is true. I have said it a lot. I just said it one more time due to the news about the contract extension.

Interesting that Eric Wolfs name appears for two of the openings. It seems hes building a competitive program at LIU, curious if its not the best situation.

Coaches from LIU Post that head teams played at both schools will also likely have to look for jobs elsewhere.

The merge between two athletic departments – especially of two different divisions – has the potential to lead to reductions in both staff and rosters. The compositions of each team will ultimately be up to the University’s discretion.

From an article at the time of the merger

While not quite as extreme as a kid going to a different high school for three consecutive years, for Penn State's defensive players, that is along the same lines. Hard to get much of a flow going with that many different coaches in such a short period of time.
