Fits the academic acumen of a top academic school from the PL, one of the few coaches with a player centric mentor on staff, academic navigation experience in recruiting, only negative..loves Bethlehem, but JHU provides a solid 5-7 years of stability.

If you read between the lines I think the reports today pretty much rule him out.

You don't think Cassese is going to hold on at Lehigh until the Duke(his alma mater) job opens up?

IMO, lacrosse nepotism rules out Duke for Cassese.

Lacrosse nepotism?

Danowksi son in the wings.

I am sure Matt is a great person and coach. But he has zero coaching experience outside of being hired by his dad as an assistant at his alma mater. Wouldn't Duke prefer an accomplished head coach like Chemotti or Cassese when the time comes?

Looking at UPenn records and they really only had two strong seasons over the 11 years he's coached . Outside those two seasons, record is below .500. As far as your AD, understand position requires much organizational skills and scope beyond the playing fields but UPenn team success during days as player , asst coach or interim coach was not inspiring. Petro had twenty years of success, is only 53 and was the face of JHU sports to this outsider. Different sports but some parallels between Petro and Belichik. Both coaching at same place for twenty years and almost identical winning percentages. Both got their team into playoffs almost every year, Belichik has won more titles partially due to the fact that he didn't have Brady for just four years. Wonder if Kraft dismisses him when Patriots have some less than stellar seasons.

Without Tom, Bill, & Matt Cassell, won 11 games. (year Brady hurt knee) First time in NFL history an 11 win team did NOT go to the playoffs. Odd.

.....who will be coaching Tom in Tamba Pay ? exactly......

Crisis planning: In tough times, take steps to cut costs while doing whatever you can to ensure the most important employees stay to weather the storm. If admin considers lax to be at all important, the HC salary is a rounding error on the cuts to be made and funds leadership of a highly visible aspect of the university (granted, not nearly as important as academics).
