It's being reported that WVU assistant Craig Carey will be the 'interim' coach of the IUP ladies this season.

FS82 could answer this better but with all that union stuff the hiring process is very slow. Tom's last official day was in the area of mid-August. So, I don't think they could open the position until that point ... and, then it has to stay posted for like 30 days or something before they can start interviews. The privates can hire exponentially faster.
With Tom they were probably looking at a 16-14 type of season. With a new coach (and likely new style) it could be a really long season. They were gutted and their best player plays for Cal now.
All of that said, it's a very attractive job -- pay, history, facilities, support, etc. So, I'd guess some other program will soon be getting screwed with their coach leaving in late September.

Odd situation for one of the PSAC elite WBB programs. Why throw away a season ?? Hopefully, for IUP fans, this doesn't spook whatever recruits showed up at the KCAC. And they're opening at DUKE !!!

Neither of the two assistants are currently on the payroll. Women's basketball is without staff at the moment. Who knows who's leading practice. They may be paying a supplement to one of Joe's assistants to at least construct & supervise practices.

Not sure. I don't follow the program too closely. Tom had two assistants. Being he didn't leave for another job and take his staff, I assume they are still there.

Who's running preseason workouts ?? Any chance an interim HC will be in charge while the search goes on for top notch? From what's been said this sounds like a down year talent wise.

Never know. Money talks.
Seton Hill salaries are private but I'd guess IUP could offer a significant raise (and a solid pension, resources, KCAC, etc.).
I like that guy a lot.
I'd also love to chase the Wheeler lady at Edinboro but she's basically royalty there. I doubt she'd leave.

I think Bruce had too much power and not enough oversight. I wouldn't blame the VB coach because she just exposed the whole situation but I would blame EUP for allowing it to happen.

Both sides were in the wrong. The volleyball coach was on a vendetta - but Bruce set himself up for the lawsuit by a) putting a non-revenue sport in "tier 1" status, and b) refusing to award her the pay raise both internal and external mediators believed she was due. Now they have a volleyball coach making as much as the football coach - and that volleyball coach also has a nice savings account from the settlement.
