Was this Fletch’s idea?

I imagine it went something like this ... Especially since Fletch and Jon talk on the regular ...

Fletch says what do you think about coming down here .... Jon says absolutely, I would love to work with you and stay at a Big Ten program ...

Fletch then said hey Josh you got a minute? Josh said, sure do why don't you come on over Fletch ...

Fletch went up to Josh's office and said I’d like to hire Jon Sanderson ...

Josh said here’s a check …

F Michigan … :ROFLMAO:

And oh yeah ... Make sure to tell Courtney to get that hire out on social media ... The fans will LOVE it ... :cool:

(Side note: there was no need to include permission from Brad ... Brad literally lets Fletch do whatever Fletch wants to do ... Very hands off because he has that trust in Fletch to get the f'ing job done ...)

Amazing! Do you know if Fletch is paying him enough for it to be worth it for him to stick around? Or is he just doing this to stay busy for a year before heading to another program?

Went to Unity high school in Tolono, his father Rod was the head Athletic trainer then head of Alumni relations for some 45+ years here….didn’t recruit him and he went Purdue and tore it up.
Still boggles the mind that a 10 year NBA vet came outta Tolono.

I wanna say Meyers is the only other IHSA Class A player to make the NBA in recent history?

Great move on so many levels. [complete speculation] I'm guessing he's a consultant because he'll be a very hot commodity and want to be able to land somewhere as a full time gig and consultant keeps some flexibility.
I'm sure it's a temporary position. But even temporary great hires, are still great hires.

(I know you weren't meaning that as a criticism of the hire.)
