Sounds like we need to increase the assistant coaches salary pool, whether they stay or leave.

Pretty definitive. Sucks.
So he's there right now? Would he be there if it wasn't a done deal? Probably not right?
And looks like coach Antigua took the orange header off his profile.

Does anyone have speculation on targets for assistant coaches?

Awfully close to a golf course... Though it is pretty cold down here today.
Sucks but a good sign about the direction of our program....now a chance to find a rock star replacement

Unsure why you guys are relying on Google and Twitter. I can easily pull up his location since I vaccinated him.

Today I learned that there is a neighborhood in Lexington called "Hamburg Area," which is just... weird.
Why didnt you put a mind control bug to Inception him into staying

Good lord. Stalker alert.
OA is excellent and it will suck to lose him. However, Chin and Gentry are outstanding, and there are tons of great recruiting assistants out there.
We'll be fine.
JW's To Do List:
Pay Chin Coleman.
Call Roger Powell.
Get the D1 hockey program finished.
Take Dee off of Double Secret Probation

I'm not worried about replacing his recruiting ability. I'm worried about losing his big-man development skills and the impact that could have on Kofi's decision to return or not.
EDIT: And the possibility of him bringing current players with him. And the possibility of Underwood getting jaded and being more willing to listen to offers in the future.

BOOM! Feed my ego.
It's a huge loss. He's a great big man coach. Terrific.

True, though Roger Powell is an outstanding coach independent of his status as part of the '05 team.

I get what you're saying, but we're probably paying our three assistant coaches somewhere in the ballpark of $1.1-1.2m combined. Can't see a world in which the UI BoT approves a doubling or tripling of that budget. At a $1m base salary, OA would already be making more than a lot of D-I head coaches. The unfortunate truth is that we can't outbid UK. We just need to be careful to not allow ourselves to be outbid by many others.

Do we entertain the idea of bringing in Bergeron if it means landing Mitchell. We seemingly will have the room...

I mean Roger is coaching for a perennial winner at Gonzaga. If he has interest in coming home, you do that 10/10 times. Dee I'm less convinced about
