Early: possible replacements?

[yosef69]

Haven't thought about it. Don't want Satterfield to leave, don't want him to need to be replaced. Historical game this weekend and we have numerous threads most of which are filled with fake news about Satterfield's next move.

Keep burying your head in the sand. Whether we like it or not this is something that needs to be talked about, and I guarantee the athletics department is doing the same.

No one is burying their head in the sand and denying the inevitable. Why is it that you have accepted him leaving a foregone conclusion and any other thought or feeling is worthy of nothing more than dismissive? Grow up and learn to discuss thoughts that counter yours instead of labeling them.

Would you leave your current job for 3-4x your salary without batting an eye? If you say no, you're either foolish or a liar.

No I would not do it without careful consideration of my family. But those are apples and oranges comparisons. We aren't talking $50k to $200K. He is already making well above the average Joe. I have teenage kids just like Satt and I know that they would not be in favor of a move at this point. I have also had a situation where it was relocate or be layed off. I chose relocation and it didn't work. So there is something to be said for personal happiness. Think what you want about me but I am neither a fool nor a liar.

You're right. You're talking MILLIONS of dollars. I'm sure his family will survive.

I'll throw a few names out: Tim Horton- RB Coach & Recruiting Coord at Auburn (can we afford him); Stacy Searles- OL Coach at U Miami; John Settles- RB Coach at Wisconsin...I know, I know...we can't afford them...so...what about these experienced coaches: Bo Pellini from Youngstown St; Pat Sullivan- ex-coach at Samford or Lonnie Galloway (unless Scott keeps him). Just having a little fun in the midst of all the madness. Just focus on today and let's give our all for Appalachian!!!

94, you told me the other day that SS didn't think like me because he wouldnt take the money, well now he just might, Please don't call anyone out for having an opinion, that isn't as honorable as you think yours is.

First of all, I said that he wouldn't make a decision solely on money, which is what many on here seem to think it will come down too. If and/or when he decides to move on, it won't be because of the pay raise. The money is a perk and not a reason for him. When he left before, his kids kept asking to come back. When he interviewed for the Cincy job, while i do not know if we was offered but I do know that the decision to not take it wasn't all his. Take this little nugget of information as you will. So as I stated in another thread. The only way that he goes is if his family signs off on it.

Just a wild a$$ guess....DG wants a proven winner to continue our tradition. Satt loves our school and players and wants us to continue to rise with a passionate coach. I think Satt and DG have called Houston and he is willing to wait a week before accepting the UNCC dumpster fire.

Fedora. He’s got something to prove and he can coach. Pay him minimum wage until his UNC payout runs out. Invest the difference in program upgrades.

Nah, I'd rather have Brown over Woody. I feel like it may be a higher risk but a much higher reward. Apparently Brown is already on the radar for some big schools as a potential DC. He's becoming a prominent name quick.

Basically, give it to Brown.

The only way Brown doesn't go with SS is if he goes to GT with Woody

I feel like he'd take App State HC over Louisville DC. Could very well be wrong, but that defense seems to love him. I think he'd embrace the chance to be the HC. I hope at least. I do think we're kind of a niche job. I'm going to want someone that's been a part of successful App State staffs. GaSo went with an outsider when Fritz left and it screwed them over. They replaced Summers with a GaSo guy and he got them winning again quick. Not saying we're the exact same, but idk. I'd want to go with someone who knows the program and knows what makes us special.

Guarawnteee you Brown would take the DC at Louisville than HC at APP. 1,000,000 plus reasons.

There is no way you or any poster on this board could know this. HC jobs are hard to come by. HC jobs where you inherit a roster ready-made to win double-digit games and make a run at the NY6 are much rarer.

I don't know if what Brown would do if he had his choice of Louisville DC or App HC. Salary would likely be better there, but not prohibitively so. But I sure know I'd interview him if Satt leaves.

That would be plausible. Assuming that Satt has already been offered the job. Doubtful though seeing as how he hasn't interviewed yet nor has he been offerred. I would imagine that agents could be talking amongst themselves though and getting a feeling of what may happen down the road.

Can you imagine Charlotte's reaction if we stole their home run hire?

[bigdaddyg]

Just for the sake of argument what would it take to at least make Satt the highest paid Belt coach?

Believe it or not there are such people. I call someone a fool who would leave a good job to take a job that pays more but the conditions don't meet you or your family's needs. Someone could have offered me 3x my salary but if I had to relocate to an undesirable place, no thank you.

I'm not saying that is necessarily the case with the Louisville job and Scott but this idea that everything is about money is pretty shallow. And if that's the only reason he would leave then I would be disappointed. If he's motivated to test himself at that level that's a different story. There could be a host of reasons he takes the UL job but if it's purely financial that's sad.
