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

For the record you get one of the Cornell passes with the Hobart cult like Joe Willie. This is a compliment but I think of you somewhat like Kent Davison, a wildly efficient and focused data analytics expert in the White House but a real human being too like here:

Head coach needs to have charisma be able to handle the program be the face of the program most importantly recruit You could add offensive coordinators, but having the ability to have run another program is ideal Whether that candidate exists, I don’t know If not, I still think the most important aspect is charisma leadership and you can backfill with coaches that are gurus on offense and defense Now, if you have a head coach, that is also a guru well that’s a home run but those are unicorns in any sport.

I think most of these coaches are in the 300k range, I could be very wrong.
What are the coaches salaries?

Is that in pesos? (Thanks, I'm here all week!)

Let's look at this another way: for years in the AFC East the aim was to build a team that could beat the Patriots. Spectacular fail for the most part by the other teams. The Pat's aim was to build a team that could beat Denver, the Colts, Chargers, Steelers, Chiefs, depending on the time frame.

Up through 2022 I would have said Brown's- and everyone else's- aim was to build a team to beat Yale. (I mean obviously you want to beat everyone, but Eli was the consistent banner team: approach that level and you were OK) Now? There's so much talent at the other schools, players and coaches, that the hire has to have a real vision for program (re)building. That would look like an experienced head coach should be the choice. But who would be willing?
Is the Brown lacrosse community willing to give a current AC hire the time to make his mistakes and (hopefully) grow into the job? IDK.

Cassease's decision to step away from Lehigh to take an assistant role on Lars's staff caused a lot of head scratching. That move makes a lot more sense if he gets handed the keys to Lars's old program / alma mater.

IvyBrown wrote: ↑Sun May 05, 2024 1:06 pm I think with the right attitude Brown can be a destination job. I think it is important to follow how other now hall of fame coaches have built “stepping stone” jobs to destination jobs. The road maps are out there. 1. Hire someone that has ties to Brown whether directly or indirectly; 2. Need charisma as it is a CEO type job being the head coach; 3. Provide enough support to allow the coach to thrive.

There are some very real examples out there on other sports where the programs prior to such a coach arriving was a stepping stone. Coach K at Duke (Duke a joke prior). Coach Wright at Villanova (not a joke but not the blue blood he made it while there; while he didnt go to villanova his wife did and after success stayed for that reason among others.

Jim Valvano said “dont mess with happy” and that means to hire someone with Brown ties who will stay. Now if that person exists I dont know but Brown should be aiming for national championships It takes the right attitude to instill this mentality.

John Crawley stands out to me because he played midfield in the PLL and had great success coaching the offensive at Notre Dame, Lehigh and is currently the OC at Hopkins. Daly's offensive coordinator was absolutely terrible in every aspect of the game and a good offensive coach can turn things around quicky for the Bears.

If you wander in the Hopkins thread, you may get more than a few people offering to drive Crawley to Brown to get the deal done.
