Coaching Update – Pat Kelsey, come on down!

Our next head coach?

Jeff Goodman is the man. He was up all on the Charlotte 49ers coaching scoop at the Final Four. Here’s his twitter feed in case you want to follow him: @goodmanonfox

Some highlights about what we know (a.k.a. rumors that could be true):

  • Our main target was probably Mike Hopkins of Syracuse, but he has withdrawn his name and never interviewed with the Chancellor. There’s a good chance ‘Cuse made his deal a little sweeter about being the next head coach
  • Pat Kelsey is now reportedly in the driver’s seat and it is his decision to make, there was a rumor that he was visiting campus yesterday, but who knows how reliable comments in Utter’s blog are
  • Still in the mix: Alan Major of Ohio State, Joe Dooley of Kansas, and Russell Springmann of Texas

Most of us at GTG are hoping for Kelsey at this point. He knows the A14 and he knows this state. It’s a good match.

Plus, he actually wears a tie that matches the color of his team. I swear Bobby was campaigning for that UT gig even into his last season.

Either way, an announcement could be made this week, let’s hope for the best!
