If it happens it is something that is going to have to be discussed. Its better to think this way that someone else may be interested in him, compared to needing to be replaced from underacheiving.

rumor is Larry Brown wants to get back into coaching and rumor is he wants to go back to college.

I have said before that Marg from Mankato and Billiter from Augie would be my first two choices.

Disagree. Nagy is a good coach who will be discussed by other schools as a coaching option. He may stay and coach at SDSU until he retires or me might get an offer within the next 3 years and leave. Who knows? No harm in discussing what would happen if he took an offer from another school.

Let's see,would this be his 149th or 150th head coaching job ?

That's fine. To each his.her own. I'd just rather see it happen after he left if he indeed does.

No doubt the AD has a list of coaches for any position that he would consider if an opening happened. That makes sense but he wouldn't contact them now and say, "if Nagy leaves would you have an interest" would he? My thought is the same should apply here but neither way is a big deal.

You'd have to think that Boots would love to get out of the World's Largest Septic Tank in Vermillion. Sorry, couldn't resist.

Re: Who would replace Nagy

SDSU has had some good luck with hiring young coaches. Just look at AJ and Ritchie Price.

It's a mute point in my mind anyways as I don't see Nagy leaving quite yet. If he wants to get back to Illinois than wait a couple more years and his options and chances will be better.

I agree that Nagy is unlikely to leave. But, consider why he would leave? NIU would be a move back home, $105,000 at SDSU or $300,000 at NIU with a long term contract.. If offered the job he would be foolish to turn it down. Say what you want about how much he likes it at SDSU a bump in pay of $200,000 gets your attention.

message boards would be rather dull with out speculation. In some areas I think its a bad thing, mostly if it involves students, but as a coach, I think its a discussion ok to have. Just like some discuss how long does Nagy have left to prove he should stay. Most feel he has, others might feel he has not done enough yet and still have him limited how many years he might have left.

Add Bruce Pearl to the list, if he hasn't been added already

Agree. It would be foolish not to have a plan to replace him should he choose to leave or should SDSU choose to go in another direction.

Re: Who would replace Nagy

I really hope that we don't lose coach Nagy now. If so, fans will quickly see how tough it will be to lure a quality coach without the ability to offer a multi-year contract. Not to mention the fact that we are now barely able or willing to pay the head coaches in the $100,000 range.

Good luck enticing a solid coaching candidate with those parameters. Can you tell someone with a straight face, "Coaching at SDSU is a great opporunity, you'll see. Never mind one of the lowest salaries in Division I, and the fact that you have no guarantee of coaching more than one season."

This huge issue will come to light either when SDSU is forced to replace Nagy or Stiegelmeier. Those are the two jobs where this limitation will hurt the most.

Still the draw to be a head coach at a school that can move good coaches up in a repsectable mid major who plays a confrence tourny an hour from its campus. Thats not a bad gig for a up and coming coach either. If your thinking a well established coach, your right, not going to be easy, but the right coach it would be a great place to start.

They would be 2 great choices if this ever came up........I'd take Ryan Miller before them though and they'd be my 2nd and 3rd choice followed by Austin Hansen.

Yes, and I know that SDSU won't be able to compete with a big conference school for a coach, but I'm afraid that in a hiring search we would have a hard time landing a coach that had interest from almost any other Division I program in the nation. And if true the reasons for that would be primarily salary and lack of a multi-year contract.

Nothing againt the Billiter and other good local/regional coaches but I'd like to think that one day we could do better than promoting a solid Division II coach. That not a knock because in our three biggest programs our Division II head coaches have done a solid job of bringing the Jackrabbits through to Division I.

I would just like to think that our coaching talent pool could expand a little bit when a coaching search is conducted again. You can't tell me that SDSU (and USD for that matter) would not be working at an inherent disadvantage when hiring a head coach. If the state of South Dakota and the board of regents have realized any benefit from the Division I move then a change needs to be made so that in the future our Division I programs can compete in the hiring process and be ready to compete at least with other mid-major universities for quality coaches.

Re: Who would replace Nagy

The idea of Ryan Miller coaching the Jackrabbits makes my skin crawl. Is that wrong? Probably, but I can't help it.
