opens the door for lyndsey fennelly or allison lacey?
If you think that it will be anyone other than Billy Fennelly or Josh Carper you are kidding yourself.Quote:

No way it's not Billy Fennelly.
Here's someone with experience in Texas who needs a job: Report -- Texas Longhorns coach Gail Goestenkors resigning - ESPN
Probably can't afford her, though. :)
I agree with mred, time to bring in some fresh blood/insight.

Bring in someone who is a great recruiter--we haven't had that among the assistants in a while.
He graduated college in 1977, so he's at least 56 or so. Given his age and the length of his coaching career, retirement would be a tempting option.Quote:

Gail Goestenkors would be a huge asset to the staff when it comes to recruiting for texas players but also agree wont be able to afford her. shd probably wouldnt come anyway given the opportunity.
She coached here before- maybe she will again:jimlad:Quote:

I only post it because it has a picture of the 02-03 team (no Easley) with a photo caption for the 03-04 team.
That's KCRG for ya. We're probably lucky it wasn't a picture of the Hawk women.Quote:
