Curry to Alabama?

I think maybe all her starters at Taco Tech were seniors. Lubbock is not an easy place to recruit players to. However, I would see the Bama job as a lateral move at the best.
 
Evidently Curry is gone to Alabama!

I think she saw the handwriting on the wall and left on her own terms rather than be fired and try to look for a job. Alabama is a couple of steps down from Tech IMO. Hilarious speculation on the next coach....Brenda Frese, Joanne McCallie, Mike Mitchell, Jeff Walsh, etc. I think they can get a really good assistant but I don't see them in line for any of their wishes!

I think she knew she had done as much as she could at Tech this year. They were a very senior laden team this year. She would have had to start all over again next year.
 
I would think it is easier to recruit to Tuscaloosa than Lubbock. I wonder if she has to take her husband?
 
Now will come some major culture shock for Tech fans as they find out the caliber of coach they think they deserve is not at all interested in going to Lubbock, Texas.

I would love to see Mossman take that job.

Why? Do you hate Melinda Mossman? ;)

Haha, no I really like her as she's been successful everywhere she's been. My brother was a Tech grad so I kinda like to see them do well and I don't think they are likely to hire someone better than Mossman.
 
I don't know that I would suggest that anyone take a job with a university that fired Leach. There aren't many who could have made Tech football semi-successful, and Leach brought them into contention. That and the hiring of Knight seems to say that they are more interested in trying to look like someone than in being someone. They kind of need to get rid of the type of people who supported James' son.

Maybe they will look at one of the OU coaches. Anyone think so?

The one area that may hurt Jan and Chad's chances is the fact they have never been on any other college staff other than Sherri's. Pam was a HC but wasn't successful so I doubt she will be considered.
 
I would think Sherri's assistants have a better chance of getting hired at a school like UTEP than at a major D-1 program.
 
Norm, do you think any of our assistants have head coaching aspirations?
