First thought, if you go external, you have conversations with Reno (Yale) & Surace (Princeton). Assuming they say no, you talk to Decker. Hard to bet against Caruso's career, but is he geographical fit? Why would either of them be interested in a job which is beneath them right now? Surace is married to a Princeton alum who is the Associate School Head at Princeton Day School.

I will only have some resentment if he goes, and then poaches (maybe not the right word) some of HC's current (non senior) players. To me, that would cheapen his "you can have it all at HC" mantra a bit in my eyes. Otherwise, I wish him the best of luck. I hope you felt this way when he left Salve Regina leaving those kids high and dry who were paying for their education and when he left Assumption in the middle of the winter?

Probably said you can have it all at Salve and Assumption. He will say you can have it all at JMU as well. Then the words are rather cheap

If I am guessing right the 1230 meeting is with Kit to answer questions and give the kids a timeline.

Thank you!
I really hope we have a succession plan already in place. If we're just starting it now there should be heads rolling over this.

Have to think if HC beat Lafayette all focus and discussion right now would be on FCS playoffs and getting to Frisco.
As said before — unfinished business for HC to tend to. Thank you and good luck to BC. Look forward to supporting all committed to the mission next year and beyond.

Why not say Tim Murphy might be interested in leaving Harvard for Holy Cross?

Just wish the name of the hire was as incorrect as Holy Cross not having scholarships. Is this guy living in the 1990s or 2000s?

Kind of interesting that if we were still in the playoffs, Chesney would not be looking at those jobs. Strange how the world works.

Dakota State today; this would REALLY SUCK. All these job searches go on anyway and usually the word gets out who the candidates are, even if they don't want it to.

Lot of unfinished business to attend to. I love BC and will forever be grateful for turning this program around. I have experienced some negative interactions with Cuse fans in the past and had extremely positive interactions with JMU fans in the past, including a few former co-workers. I think the Syracuse job was, as one poster put it, aspirational. I would be thrilled for him to be in a P4 position, something which could likely happen in Chestnut Hill and a couple other places with in the next year or a few years. JMU has good facilities, fans, and seems to be raising quite a bit of money, but to me, a stepping stone position. Likely would have more on the table, including more money after next year. I hope we are able to retain the incoming class and avoid any more portal disruptions. We could go from a 6th PL title next year and a little playoff run (I don't think we'd make it past the quarters) to possibly missing the playoffs again. To me, that would be very out of character for Ches to leave the program in a bind. Happy for Ches but at the same time disappointed. If this is announced this afternoon, I'm likely more upset at our inability to retain coach, than his leaving. Come home, Chris!
I am grateful to ADKH for his work in hiring Bill Riga and Dave Paulsen. Some more changes could come our way with minor sports and this could be the opportunity to leave a lasting mark on the College with a successful football hire.

Why not say Tim Murphy might be interested in leaving Harvard for Holy Cross? Nobody is saying Reno is interested. And Murphy is too old. Reno is a good coach who knows this level of student athlete. We are saying HC should reach out to him and express interest.
