Really? Who?
Graceland University used to be Graceland College. My older sister went there years ago and was really where she got her start performing musically in a group that was sponsored by the the college. It will be interesting to see what he can do here at Tech. I wonder if he's had to face the challenges that he's getting ready to face.
I found this article about our new soccer coach, written by an Illinois paper. He definitely has experience in dealing with a lack of funding!

This guy sounds like a good hire.
He may be a good hire, but I still think that Rich got a raw deal from our administration. I am not saying that Rich was a better choice because I don't know if he was. I hope that Sherry does great at Tech. Our soccer players work hard and deserve the best. What I am saying is that Rich should not have been treated the way he was.
How was he treated badly? I heard that he had bad references that would have prevented him from being hired. How did Tech give him a raw deal? Just curious.
If he's been you're employee for the last 2 years as an assistant, then these references better not tell you anything that you don't already know. This wasn't a fresh relationship.
Why continue to talk about this. It's past, I know personally that Rich is moving on and the program is also. Focus on the upcoming season not the process. Rich loves the program and would not want this to continue to rehashed. He has talked to Kevin and so have I so lets just move on.
The two sides of this situation are never going to agree what went down, and how it happened. Honestly at this point it doesn't matter anymore, just that the program continues to build.
He was told he was the guy for the job, and then they told him he didn't get it. So he was not out looking for another job during that time and is now having to look for one. It wasn't his references, but I agree with Doc Marvin. He has been at Tech for first 3 years of the program so therefore, there shouldn't have been anything his reference said that they didn't say before.
