Kyle Green a finalist for job

Re: Kyle Green a finalist for job

What about waiting until Jake leaves? It's probably inevitable at some point. It may not be soon, but someone is bound to offer him a job that he can't turn down with a straight face. I would think KG would be a good "wait in the wings" style candidate, assuming he wants to be.

IMO, this may be the best sign yet that Jake plans to stick around awhile. I don't care that he signed an extension, and the papers had some article about he and his wife "talking it over." Coaches do that all the time, and leave the next day.

However, I have to think Green has a pretty good feel for Jake's intentions, and if he thought Jake was looking to move in the next couple of years, I think he would be much less likely to pursue this type of gig.

No guarantee, but I think its our best sign yet.

I'm skeptical that Div 3 in Wis would pay over $100k.

I would be surprised if he would get more than 50K, I would guess 35, 40. It might depend on if he has general administrative duties also.

Especially when it is a state school in Wisconsin, and that state has all sorts of trouble with the budget. What does he make here?

Just seems like a weird career move (fiscally as well) to me. But I guess he really wants to be a head coach somewhere. Is this really going to help him get a D1 head coaching job someplace (if that is what his goal is)? I would think an assistant coaching job here would do more for him than a D3 job. Maybe try to get a BCS assistant job someplace. But its his decision and not mine. Best of luck to him whether he is here or someplace else.

A loss for UNI and the Cedar Valley as a whole, but best of luck to Coach Green and his family.

Re: Kyle Green a finalist for job

Horrible news for UNI. Really, really sad to see him go. This is a big loss for the program.


Wish the best of luck to Coach Green with this position, and hope to see him back at UNI some day.

Re: Kyle Green a finalist for job

I wish Coach Green and his family well, but I really wonder if this is a move up? Of course if becoming a Head Coach is his goal than sometimes you have to go with your heart.

Re: Kyle Green a finalist for job

That is not good for the program. And I have to wonder if a DIII head coaching job is a step-up from being the top assistant at UNI? Seems like it would be easier getting a higher level head coaching job as a top assistant in the Missouri Valley than a head coach at a DIII.
