Re: 2017-18 St. Cloud State Season Thread - Second Attempt
Wow, salty. You're deluding yourself about what constitutes a "better" program. Motzko took the gig at Minnesota because it paid better, but Minnesota took Motzko because he was a proven winner. The "better" programs have that luxury. In contrast, SCSU's only three D1 coaches were promoted into the position. None of our assistant coaches have ever taken a direct D1 promotion outside of SCSU. Hell, even Bob's promotion inside SCSU was a half step from associate to head. I listed six Gopher assistants who took direct D1 promotions and there are more than that. it's a smaller step and a good career move, plain and simple.
EDIT: Also, my preferred candidate was Grönborg specifically because it would have been at worst a lateral move for him and a huge get for SCSU. Same goes for Hastings. I never advocated for Parrish to be head coach. If I suggested him, he was merely among a list of others. I did advocate for him as an assistant coach and I'd happily defend that position.
