Coley Leaving

[KingWard]

What is he committing to other than his own career for the benefit of himself and his family?

There should be respect for agreements made with professional colleagues also. Again, one thing doesn't preclude the other.

It use to be when a hand shake was all it took for an agreement then a contract meant a surety of an agreement but not now

Good hires are determined by results. Coley never produced any results.

 

[Blues man]

I gotta wonder if this signals we were looking to him like primarily a running team?

I hear you. And him believing that the UGA opportunity is better for him than the SC opportunity should implicitly factor in any relationship management collateral damage within the fraternity of coaches.

If I were offered a job today, I wouldn't look at it as just $s, but also within context of the implications that leaving my current role and company might help or hurt me in the years to come - the tenure/movement/churn has an implied opportunity cost or benefit of some type that has to be estimated.

But I don't feel an ounce of loyalty to my employer. And I've never expected that my employer has any loyalty to me.

I don't think it really means a whole lot other than UGA is simply in another stratosphere right now in terms of relevance.

Well, I guess it just goes to show that not all societal/cultural attitudinal change has been fortunate with respect to employment covenants or professional expectations. I'm not assigning all the blame for that to one side or the other.

Seeing reports this morning that Limestone's head coach is coming in to coach wide receivers. Board meeting tomorrow to approve his contract.

He's not going to be a "sexy" hire, and most on this board will excoriate Beamer for it. But the dude is a good coach. Sterling Lucas had never recruited a day in his life, and by most accounts, is our best recruiter. I don't know Furrey well, but do know him. He's done a really good job at Limestone, and the players love him. Great personality, I see him crushing it on the recruiting trail. I would be a little surprised if we gave him $600K+, which is the threshold for board approval.

Whatever it is will be a big increase for him.

Another coach with NFL experience. All things considered, seems like a solid pickup.

Lots of good comments about his character also. He's a lot like Stepp.

I predict our WRs will be much better at blocking as well.

I'm getting an uneasy feeling.

Limestone folks think Furrey’s the guy.

Furrey on the move? - D2 Message Board

Limestone HC Mike Furrey is reportedly considering accepting an offer to become the next WR Coach at South Carolina. A decision could come as early as tonite.

Interestingly, Coley and Beamer were together at UGA in 2016-17.

I'm guessing a title of some sort and a multi-year deal (2) which also requires board approval.
