JMU coach Mike Houston leaving for Charlotte?

[EC8CH]

Looks like Duke's are losing their DC (Trott) who was the assistant most were hoping would stay after the coaching shake up. Apparently his wife spilled the beans on Facebook.

I also love the title of this thread is Houston going to Charlotte. Don't ever change it please.

Here is where you're going to see which is a good team vs. a good program.

I would contend that JMU has been a good team, but not an elite program.

Difficult for a program that relies so heavily on transfers at key positions to maintain success year to year much less though a shake up of the coaching staff.

Honest question.
He doesn’t seem to stay very long. How would one know if he’s good or not when he is using someone else’s recruits.
Is this like everything else where we just use stats and don’t look deeper?

If I were a program looking for a long term coach, Mike Houston is not on the list.

If Houston has done well enough to move on to a P5 gig after 3 years at ECU I'm pretty sure they'll be pretty happy with the state of the program considering how poorly they've done the last few years with Scottie Montgomery.

Strong believer that people need to be done the day they resign.

--thanks for the two weeks notice. I'll walk you out. You get your last paycheck in the mail and a box of your stuff will be by the loading dock tomorrow at 3 pm.

Not looking to start a fight, as I think your position is completely justifiable. However I find it is interesting that if I resign and don't provide any notice, its considered bad form. However if I decide to leave and the company says, "hey thanks but no thanks", and I get walked out the door, no one (including me) thinks anything about it. Its fascinating how we have developed such different standards for employers and employees.

The companies that I am familiar with who walk you out, will pay you the 2 weeks. Not saying that happens everywhere though.

Right - should be paid for the remainder of the notice period. Whether one is walked out on the spot or not should depend on responsibility and access. Risk and risk perception must be controlled.

Who cares if half on JMU recruits leave after this, they rely on transfers.

I think giving a notice and being walked out is all determined by the position you hold and the company you work for. In the healthcare industry giving notice is looked on very favorably and appreciated. Especially the nurses , technologists and the support staff.
