Re: New Cornell football coach: Kent Austin (first impressions) - 14 years ago
Al DeFlorio RichH Also, I believe that recruiting at Ole Miss & recruiting Ivy League athletes are slightly different beasts. I'm hoping that as a former Academic All-American Austin will relate to kids who would look to attend an Ivy League school. I agree Al. Maxie Baughan came to Cornell from the NFL with no college recruiting experience, yet he was able to bring a shared Ivy Championshiby Ken711 - Other Sports
Re: New Cornell football coach: Kent Austin (first impressions) - 14 years ago
dbilmes billhoward I'm dying to know . . . why Andy Noel talked so much about him being a dedicated recruiter in the wake of Mississippi papers saying it's not his strong suit. What else is Andy Noel supposed to say? If he's not a good recruiter, he's not going to say it (it also means he shouldn't have hired him -- but that's another story that only time will tell).

Re: Latest Cornell football candidates - 14 years ago
We can't go through another 5-6 years to see if the coach is a failure again. Andy Noel needs to get this hire right this time, and more importantly, the University from the President to the admissions office has to provide the new staff with all the support and resources they require to finally build a championship program in football at Cornell!by Ken711 - Other Sports
Re: Latest Cornell football candidates - 14 years ago
Trotsky Or you get a guy who wants to build the program and stay. Surely not everyone is just going for the brass ring? I agree. Penn's Bagnoli has been there for 18 years.by Ken711 - Other Sports
Re: Latest Cornell football candidates - 14 years ago
Any news on how it's going? I hope there's more candidates than the names reported so far being Terry Shea, Bob Casullo and Ron Vanderlinden. Those coaches are at or approaching 60 years old.... Rebuilding Cornell's football program is a long-term job to recruit the athletes needed to build an Ivy League championship level program.by Ken711 - Other Sports
Re: Latest Cornell football candidates - 14 years ago
There's also a report of the Syracuse special teams coach Casullo interviewing but he has never been an coordinator, let alone have any head coaching experience. I hope we pass on Terry Shea, 64 going on 65 is too old for the rebuilding job the new coach at Cornell will undertake. If Austin can recruit in the Ivy League, then I think his offensive coaching background will be an asset. Vandeby Ken711 - Other Sports
Latest Cornell football candidates - 14 years ago
FootballScoop has learned that Cornell is set to interview Ole Miss offensive coordinator Kent Austin for the head coaching position. Terry Shea and Ron Vanderlinden (Penn State linebackers) have interviewed. We hear two others have interviewed, but have not confirmed those names. Also, add Syracuse special teams coach Bob Casullo. I like Kent Austin of those names mentioned above,Terry Shea iby Ken711 - Other Sports
