Hopefully Kearns will accept, I don't want to have to hear what Plan D is, unless it is Lutz then I think most everyone would be thrilled.

Lutz seemed to be the peoples pick but Doug had Jones, Craft, Kerns rated higher. Hopefully it all works out for the best and we become competitive again.

Well...looks like no announcement. Either AppMania has got bad intel... Or Doug thought he had a deal done, info got leaked to AppMania and whoever was offered back out of the job for whatever reason. Or as some has speculated, maybe Doug is feeling pressure to offer Lutz now that maybe option 1 and...

Well, seems like Doug is not interested in Lutz.

Hope he pulls out a good coach today.

When is AppMania going to announce the hire?

It was suppose to be today the latest.

Can't wait to see who the hire today, thought it could of been announced yesterday according to AppMania, it WILL happen today.

Predictions?

Lutz would of won the press conference, lots of media coverage for App and IMO probably the safest bet to get us to atleast .500 or better consistently in the conference. Sadly, it appears Doug isn't interested. Lutz said he was willing to come, but I suspect they may not even been an offer on the t...

Guys relax. I posted something that was posted on a website that was free for anyone to see. On a free message board section. Mike Jones turned down Elon as well, so don't feel too bad. Dougs comment about "you start big and move down", leads me to believe App has been turned down by 1 candidate, if...

IF it’s true that Lutz hasn’t interviewed, and IF an announcement will be made by tomorrow, then I highly doubt it will be Lutz. I have no inside info whatsoever about DG's actual shortlist or his ultimate choice, but I don't look for a formal announcement until after that 3 PM BOT Athletics Commit...

So the Radford Highlanders coach turned us down. Hmmmm. That provides some perspective, at least to me.

Lutz said he could not speak to the level of interest from App State. He said he would be open to having conversation with App State about the job. He didn't say he had not spoke App, or that he had spoke to App. If they had agreed verbally and was ironing out contract details as of Monday, obviousl...

I’m told by a very reliable source Mike Jones has turned down the Appalachian State job

Who?

Mike Jones https://t.co/rRqu46EGAN

He was coaching the Chicago Bulls D-League team in 2017. He could get some job, any dead end job if he wanted. Easily could be a high level as an assistant. His scouting knowledge would land him a job on any head coaches staff that scouting was not a strength. He was able to be picky. Charlotte owed...

Lutz seems to be perfect fit. He would stay for 10-15 years, provide stability to our program that needs it in the worse way. Someone like Craft can probably wait for a better job to open since he has a program like GWU around top 4 in the conference and will get a recruiting bump from this recent N...
