[QUOTE="GTLorenzo, post: 917004, member: 359"] Seriously? 1. You want the AD to research the potential coach by himself? How did that work out last time? 2. Parker reportedly has a database of thousands of candidates for all types of jobs. You don't think they can do a better job to select a football or basketball or golf or softball or whatever coach than some random AD? It's not 1985 where the AD has some magical list of potential candidates in their desk drawer in case their coach leaves. There are certainly no guarantees that a coach will be successful, see No. 1 above, but there are a variety of reasons why a search firm makes sense in a big time hire/search like this. Confidentiality. Plausible deniability. A larger grasp on who the best candidates are. Etc. See the following.
