Kevin Schnall
- Thread starter Cocky 45
- Start date
I dont know if that makes much sense if our season and his team's seasons are already over. Im seeing a lot of stuff on twitter about it being Schnall after all and that an announcement will be later today so if thats the choice, its time to throw support behind the new staff and hope for the best.
They are analyzing if he "really wants to be here".
Was thinking in terms of is there some sort of "gentlemen's agreement" to withhold such announcements until after the CWS concludes.
Im really hoping now that Tanner is gone, that is not such an important part of the evaluation in new hires, going forward
I have said this previously, how in the world does anyone know if Schnall is the top choice for Donati/South Carolina, or anyone else for that matter. Are people merely making this presumption based upon media insiders on this website. From a professional standpoint, if I were Donati and people within my organization were leaking this kind of sensitive information out, you would be facing disciplinary action that may include dismissal. Think about this, leaking information about potential candidates is detrimental to this process by making it much more difficult to speak with a coach or his agent.
The new rumor is Monty is having cosmetic surgery to look like kevin and fool JD into hiring him
Something to consider with Schnall.
He was also the associate head coach with Gilmore when Gilrmore first became sick. I think he had a lot more experience leading a program than the official 2 years listed as head coach because with Gilmore going through treatment, etc- Schnall was also leading the program.
Your correct, Tanner could be out the box, and it didn't work well, we see how Donati does.
I have read they met in Florence with Schall.
I am also wondering if he's decided to stay at Coastal. I think it would be very hard to leave there with the half a million he makes there and it being his school. He's well taken care of and is respected. H knows he can have a down year or two at Coastal and stay head coach. He will also probably get another raise.
I've heard from someone that knows him fairly well that tells me money is not an issue for him. He feels well compensated and is very happy. He also feels Coastal puts resources into the program there and while more would be great, he's satisfied they will do what they need to do and have proven they will do it. His family is also very happy in Myrtle Beach.
Of course, more money is nice, but that he feels he can make more money at Coastal in the long run than if he took a gamble with us and failed. So money won't be the deciding factor for him, which I think is the proper way to look at our job.
I am not sure South Carolina would make people respect him more. His mentor, Gilmore, also turned down other opportunities to stay at Coastal and never regretted it.
Nothing would surprise me though.

Would rather be patient and get this right. Why Schnall over Sabins or Meade if they are interested? Obviously Meade has been here before so he would know what he is getting into.
Not a jab at this board, but "insiders" in general. A "source" had the Coastal program feeling he was leaving, yet it drags on.
I am convinced anonymous "sources" often tell people what they want to hear, whether its true or not.
Why do you let how the fans will react chap your backside so much?
We get it already. Any coach hired has your unconditional love and support regardless of results. Your mentality is there should be no expectations because we're Carolina and have no right to expect anything of coaches or our programs. We should be grateful someone accepted the job.

So we have two potential HC candidates, if you can believe any scuttlebutt, now in the CWS with Troy and WVU. How does anyone know that things aren`t "falling into place." If not with Schnall maybe with one of them or someone else that has been thrown around as a potential HC.
Your thinking mirrors mine a great deal. His being a Coastal alumnus merely adds to them being his school.
