His guard teammate may be joining him but I haven't been able to find anything semi-official.

Been trying to remember how long the time between Ed Douma's dismissal and KVS' hiring.  Was it comparable to the time between Hope's old coach and MN"s hiring?  And is the current length comparable to what Hope is experiencing now?

The hope coach poll, is that what we think hope will do or, what we think hope should do?

Chad Carlson is currently listed as Faculty/Staff for the Kinesiology Department for Hope College.

Dr. Carlson joining the Hope faculty has been known since May 28th (posted 8-10 pages back), so that fact is not necessarily an indication of any Head Coaching decision.

He just became an official college employee by getting a hope.edu e-mail address.

If you want a good example of why new posters don't hang around much, its the -3 karma in about 8 hours time.   For these two posts that's just childish.

Quite the welcoming committee.



So anyway, welcome to the board OnlyHope.

Out of the 1000's of coaches in this country, their two options are one with ZERO "Head" coaching experience and the other option is someone with ZERO college coaching experience....

For those who will say he was the Head JV coach, there is nothing remotely comparable to being the Head varsity, leader of a program, voice to the media, etc...

True, hoopdreams . . . and appreciate your news from close to the program . . . though, of course, all the best head coaches were doing something else before some school recognized their potential and gave them their first head coaching opportunity.  And the last time Hope hired a "head JV coach" it didn't take long for him to become national coach of the year.
