Re: Coach Palileo
I don't know if this is true or not but didn't coach Palileo pull a scholarship? I "heard" that he got the Mrs. South Dakota to come here and then he pulled her scholarship. I think she went on the be an assistant coach at Sioux Valley the next year. He is the first coach I've heard of doing this. I heard that he got rid of some players who weren't dedicated to the program. I'm assuming she was one of them.
I like how you use the word "resigned". I think Phil would have been a good hire, too. It's just too bad that Andrew left everybody out until Phil was gone. Phil leaves and then Andrew goes after 2 jobs. You would think he would inform Phil of his intentions to leave. Oh well! Maybe Phil left and then Andrew got the idea to leave.

As far as multi year contracts, that can work both ways. Signing a five year deal and then to find out in the first year, the institution hired the wrong guy or things are not working out. What do you do? To make a coaching change, it costs money to buy back that contract. I think this would be the biggest reason for resisting multi year contracts. Where does that money come from? From the legislature in SD? With one year contracts, the bite no where as damaging as would a 20 million dollar buy out like some of the bigger programs have had to pay. Also whats to stop a successful Coach such Palileo from moving on to greener pastures under a multi year contract? Do you sue him and force him to complete the multi year contract? Now thats would be nicccccccccce. How about it lawyer guys?Last edited by rational thought; 04-15-2008, 11:23 AM.

Originally posted by thebluehatman View PostGranted I don't know every detail about the situation. But Phil resigned on Valentine's Day(Feb. 14th). He spent a lot of time traveling the country looking for a job. Drake sat open for 4 months before it is filled. Two months after Phil resigns, Andrew announces his intention for a job that has been open since after Phil resigned.
As it stands right now we have NO GA's, NO Ass't Coaches, and NO Head Coaches. Even though Assistants have been brought in supposedly to check out the campus. Fred has his work cut out for him this spring.
Family definately played some role in both decisions. The program is definately in rebuilding mode as of 5:00 PM.

Re: Coach Palileo
Timing couldn't be worse. I just don't get it. We had an assistant coach who was well liked by the players, parents, staff, community, other student athletes...everyone under the sun; who was a great motivator, recruiter, strategist, and hard worker. And he leaves for a "head coaching opportunity" but only after accepting a job at SIU (as an assistant) and then backing out to go to Drake. Now Palileo resignes and leaves the program and student athletes high and dry. Seems to me like Phil would have been the perfect person to take the program over and to the next level. Again, I just don't get it.

Re: Coach Palileo
I suspect a better approach would be talking to state legislators who are friendly to SDSU about the situation.
On the other hand there's no way SDSU would be able to match what a BCS school can bring to the table for any of our coaches, even if the one-year-contract policy was changed. Such is life at the bottom of the D-I food chain. That's why the emphasis needs to be building programs the right way--scholarships and facilities. Coaches will go. New, eager coaches will come, if they think that SDSU would be a suitable stepping stone to bigger and better things.

Originally posted by JACKGUYII View PostI think it has to be irratating for the administration and the team to see Palileo flirt with programs that don't seem to be an upgrade. At some point if this continues into the summer let him go and focus on bringing in someone who want's to be at SDSU or we will lose recruits and be backed into finding someone very close to the fall season. The fact we don't have an assistant makes it more unsettling.
