Who will be the next Valdosta HC..

[Rational Observer]

I’m not sure where he came from

According to the VSU Athletics web page, he came from NWMSU:

Christmas being in the middle of the week probably has slowed things down some.

He hired the baseball coach.

I have very little confidence in our new AD. I’m not sure where he came from or what his views of football are, but at least with Herb, you k ew he was going to hire the best available to lead this program. There should be be names floating around by now.

I've been a fan of the successful VSU football program for several years, and even though the Blazers had a very good year, it now seems like I'm watching a slow train wreck. Hopefully things will start turning around, if not, it could potentially take years to right the ship.

David Dean would be more welcomed than Gary Golf. Whoever it is, it will be a statement as to the direction the administration envisions for the program. Herb is gone so this will be the first major hire for the new AD.

I doubt that he is welcome back in Valdosta.

A lot of folks said that about Rich Rod in West Virginia, too. Granted, it hasn’t been 17 years like him but a lot of coaches seem to get second chances former jobs recently especially alumni.

Gary Goff,

I doubt that he is welcome back in Valdosta.

Putting the topic out there as I haven’t seen any word about who might be the next coach. Kinda surprised no talk of who’s being rumored and such..

it would seem the athletic administration knew a bit leading up to the departure of TJ..so I’m assuming they’ve made some calls and tried to prepare for this change.

Any names being mentioned yet? I’d heard the Gary Goff name being put out there but I wasn’t sure if that was a knee jerk reaction to him being the last coach and being available now.

Just curious.
