This is jus here say I’m not on the committee or no insight but if your on the hiring committee, what do you do in this situation…? I’m guessing he gave them a time he would get back with them.

situation like this are tough because I know few of the freshmen I’ve talked to are anxious.

Tell them there is a team, with plenty of room to  lift and run right up the street!!! LOL

This is the reason why you want to keep things as quite as possible.  The fact that people are saying it has been offered and if that coach turns it down and they have to offer it to another candidate then they may not take it either because they weren't the first choice by the committee.  Starts to be a trickle down effect.  If I interviewed and taking the job required moving my family I wouldn't wanna find out I am the 3rd or 4th choice.  Generally that means you are the guy they really didn't want so before you have even called a play the people who hired you don't believe in you.

All this. 

There have been things posted in this thread that are not true, by people that want to be more in the know than they are. Let's just let the people who are actually involved do their jobs and we'll find out who the new coach is when it happens. 

Looks like this one is still wide open….. 

This is where a job starts to fall to the next person on the list until somebody says yes.  A lot of guys who aren't desperate to be a head coach or desperate to get out of a bad situation aren't going to be willing to take this unless demands get met.  Sort of puts Frankfort in a tough spot cause now they are the ones who might be in desperation mode with getting somebody hired.  There are only 10 or 11 jobs posted that haven't made hires yet and some of those just came open and many people could view some of those as more attractive jobs than Frankfort as far as pay and resources go.

It's a shame how many people post "things they have heard" as opposed to actual facts.

Rule 2 reads in part:

Do not comment on the manner in which another member has posted, or any violations you find in their posts. Such public remarks will be considered a violation under this rule.

As an alum I'm puzzled?... I hope this committee can regroup and really focus on what's important.

I don't know all the details, but I do know for a fact that a quality applicant has been contacted for an interview. His current Boss speaks very highly of him. Don't know the coach's name, but it did sound like someone who would do a good job. I know this, he is coming from a GREAT football program run by a GREAT head football coach. And, when I say GREAT, I mean it.

If some of the things that have been stated to be leaked have actually been leaked it sounds like they need to "regroup" with an entire new committee and start the process over again. 

Frankfort is a unique place... its not for everybody.

I love our Banter I miss the days when your school would actually play us... but that has been some time ago.... I know you love Frankfort... But you would be shocked the people involved in this process that talk and share things with us folks over here. It always surprises me!
