Scoop Curry.
What a way to head into the weekend.
Chucking to myself as this sure seems like Kit is trying to have it get lost in the Friday afternoon news dump.
But, well done, ADKH. Think the last week and a half was largely botched, but glad we got here.

Think the last week and a half was largely botched, but glad we got here. Forget the last week and half, this next move is insanely important. One thing is clear, our booster club needs a major injection of passion and energy. I’m calling out myself, and all of you to….PICK IT UP!!!

I just got my email from Crusader Athletics, and came here to check in! Great news! I wrote back and thanked them. Now, sone hard work begins. I hope that the players are being handled with care and kept in the loop as we go forward.

Onward and upward!

Our nightmare is over, finally. And, the assistants?

So guys. If we are being fair. We’ve ripped Kit for a variety of reasons.
Let’s applaud him. I honestly don’t care how it gone done.
Kit was handed a crap sandwich from Blossom. He got it done.
Let’s start to back him to be fair.

For me, it's time to pray that this next coach decision will be the right one - I think it's a very tricky position we're in given our league /our budget / and the high expectations that we all have eight scholarships open in the next year (2 for 23-24 and 6 for 24-25)
Does anyone think we have an idea of who we are targeting ?

Let’s start to back him to be fair. Agreed. Grand scheme of things, taking an extra week is inconsequential. This had to happen and it did happen.
Hopefully Kit's already got a target list.

No mention of a search firm in the announcement. Interesting.

Seconded, dharry.
Not that we will ever know nor does it really matter, but I’m incredibly curious if it was Kit’s plan all along to fire Nelson, or did he have to mull this over, get pushed by alums, or influenced by someone else over the last ten days that pushed him to getting this done.
Regardless, well done, ADKH! Thank you.

Jared, any former players out there you know of who would be a good fit? With experience and desire?

Let’s start to back him to be fair. Ehh, I’d just rather “move on” than give credit for a move that he will receive ZERO backlash for. A swift move is what those kids needed (and the 15+ transfers), as well as guys like Austin Butler, a clear statement saying “we care”. That didn’t happen, and I definitely won’t forget it.

From the clip
With our resources here at the Luth Athletic Complex, the world-class education Holy Cross provides, incredibly supportive fans and alumni, and accelerated growth in the city of Worcester, we must raise our standards and expectations for success throughout our program,” Hughes said. “The time is now.”
I’ll take it. I support him and the program for the next hire.

Patriot League Purge continues. I get the feeling the coach of Christopher Newport, John Krikorian, might be interested in the job. He is a very local guy, Auburn, MA., 49 years old, a Penn Grad, assistant for two years each at Penn, Lafayette and Navy. Head man for 14 years and has won nearly 80% of his games in ten years at CN. He might be interested in moving and coming "home" to boot.
