Sullivan would be good......

[Mr.Right]

Do you think the surprise candidate is a D1 assistant?

The surprise candidate was an SMU assistant so yes D1. I heard he did very well.

[Mr.Right]

Rumor that I heard is that Sullivan was offered the position (actually a few days ago). I haven't heard yet if he gave them a yes or no.

I hope this is the case as I have not heard who got the job offer. If it is taking this long for him to mull it over than there must be a money issue. I predicted this might come up back in September as I know WNEC pays him pretty decently. I would imagine he could negotiate a little if this is the case

Hey right - what about Huffman at Williams?  Surely he is a candidate.  And cece?  He seemed like the head coach this past year.

[Mr.Right]

Honestly I have no idea. Demeo has been with Russo for 20 years so he probably goes out with Russo and will not return. Not sure why you think Cece was the head coach this past year. He was given more responsibility from Russo to help him mature into a head coach. He wants to be a head coach somewhere but if he cannot get a job and Sullivan gets the Williams gig he might keep Cece around as he is a very capable coach. Interestingly, I think he would be a great fit to replace Sullivan at WNEC. Huffman I believe will not return but honestly have no idea.

Why are you so interested in the assistants? Are you one of them?

lol worse than the field but funny nevertheless

[lastguyoffthebench]

I'd give Amherst the edge to win the NESCAC in a 4 team race...

MSU or RUC to win the NJAC in a two horse race.  (Rutgers-Newark could fall off after losing Araujo, Abreu, Holiday, and Moraes).   Kean is probably higher in voting, leaving a team like WPU as a dark horse...
1 MSU, 2 RUC, 3 Stockton, 4 Kean, 5 RUN, 6 TCNJ...

Loras loses a strong core in Pizello, Fluegel, Burgmeier.   I would assume that Rummelhart will RS as he only played 5 games?   Still return Bradley and Simon... true coinflip here for me vs Wartburg who loses Nadeau.

Probably giving Dickinson the edge in the Centennial.  Mules are losing a solid core, but the program is heading in the right direction...  F&M loses Rosenfeld, Bomba, Watson, Lane, and Scott.

LOL... like the NESCAC and Messiah odds! Wheaton will contend again...

[Mr.Right]

and your UAA pick?

[Corazon]

Mr. Right,

I'd love to see your NESCAC predictions for '15.

[Corazon]

And by the way, the SMU assistant appears to have a very impressive pedigree. I believe Williams will be in good hands either way.

[Mr.Right]

I have confirmation that Sullivan was offered the job on Friday and is taking his time with his decision. I would guess its 95% that he leaves WNEC for Williams but stranger things have happened.

[Mr.Right]

In other news......rumor has it that Messiah stud Danny Brandt has requested a transfer to a D1. With an already huge graduating class this loss would sting a bit and we could start to see the empire cracking just a bit
