2024 Cincinnati Area Open Jobs

I’m pretty sure no one here knows what they are talking about. Connelly is no longer w the program so I would not think he is a candidate since he has not been retained…

All of the assistants are still listed on the website while the head coach is vacant. I know that doesn't mean anything, but if they're all gone, then remove them all.

Someone still has to run the basketball program even in the off-season, especially with June scrimmages and camps coming up in 3 weeks. My guess is that some of these coaches are still putting in work. Someone has to plan for June.

Higgins will be taking a serious Pay Cut going to LaSalle! Be strange, an X guy at LaSalle and a LaSalle guy at X! I’m assuming Higgins will send his son to LaSalle if he is the Coach there.

LaSalle reached out through back channels to a couple bigger coaching names in Cincinnati, a couple of GMC and CHL dudes. However their inability to pay top dollar makes it tough for them, especially when there are guys out there making six figures. If Higgins takes the job, it will be strictly about basketball and not monetary.

They kept 3 assistants 2 who work at the school in another capacity and 1 from outside the school. I believe the JV head coach was retained, not sure about the Freshman.

Guessing one of those GMC calls was to Tim Austing (and Rooks and Hill from the CHL). Can't blame them for trying.

Are Rooks and Hill near the 100k mark?

In situations like that, will the new head coach have the power to bring in his own JV coach? Or will LaSalle make it known "this is your JV coach"? Might make it even tougher to land an experienced coach because they are going to want to make their own coaching decisions.

No clue. Wondering if the JV coach is a possible candidate and the other 2 are already in the building so keep them around to run “open gyms” or whatever.
 
Can't see any of the mentioned people move. Higgins keeps getting mentioned. He is on staff at HHS. Give up 25 years of STRS to go to LaSalle? Hill has a great position at IHill. Will finish top two in CHL every year and the potential of tournament success.

9th & JV teams were loaded. Add to The mix the up and coming freshman phenom Baron Phipps! Should be at the top of the league next season. Dustin Eads will have this program turned around in no time. The old gang is coming back to Lebanon road. Richardson,McGraw, Brady, McConnaughey let’s go! As you can tell I’m excited about this hire. #golow

1631Caddie, I appreciate your excitement but I think you could have made your point without including the name of an 8th grader. I don't know if Yappi allows you to edit comments but I would appreciate it if you would remove the name from your post and replace it with something about the success of the 8th grade team.

You a LaSalle Alum? You donate a good amount of money? Tell us more about you experience with the LaSalle AD?

I am an alum and donate I’m not sure what a “good amount of money” is to you, but I think that is up to the individual (and really what does it matter?).

I know Brian Meyer on a decent level, and he a great guy and cares about LaSalle athletics. On that note I am not impressed with the direction of the department under his leadership! Some of the decisions they’ve made have made me shake my head! I am not blind to the fact that not all of those decisions are not 100% his and are sometimes handicapped by money!

I really wish there was a better plan for this basketball coaching search than… “Let’s fire Pat, and hope CJ takes it!” Which right now seems to be the appearance of it. This hire could really determine a lot for Brian and the athletics department, they can’t drop the ball here!!!!

Sorry he’s a stud and will be talked about in southwest Ohio the next 4 years. He will probably make some noise on the football field as well if given the chance! #golow

They didn't
 
I believe Goedde was hired on a split vote. AD inherits the situation. The no votes in the school never changed. The normal BS whining parents probably wore AD down. If young Fleming was the plan, why it wasn't back channeled was a mistake. Meanwhile CHCA hasn't had a HC since December. Great work Athletic Department.

The tide turned against Goedde because the results were poor.

The CHCA situation is crazy! Not a hint of anything going on.
