How long will this search take?
1-3 days
1 week
2-3 weeks
Until January

My pessimism leans towards the last option.

Usually, about 4-5 days - 10 days. It is a variable process, due to many moving parts, availability, other potential suitors, bowl games, playoffs, contract review and timelines.

If they want any of my $$$$ they should be announcing this by Sunday noon at latest. They need to go within as Trisciani is the leader and A type personality from the present staff our assistants will be poached but We can survive. with a decent recruiting class. Get in the fight Blank.

So, we need to hire a coach really soon.

Who’s available?

Who would you like to see at the helm?

I think they should should hire the Head Football At IUP Coach Paul Tortorella! He came where Curt Was from, in his first year as a Head Football Coach he was 13-1, IUP was number 1 In the county threw out the whole season. IUP Made it to the Final 4, under Paul Tortorella, which Curt never did, his overall record as a Head Football Coach is 21-4. It looks like he is a loyal guy he has been at IUP for 22 years, and was at the Division 1 level before (Akron) (Maryland). I think it would be a smart hire. He work under Curt for 6 years. I think they should hire Paul Tortorella from IUP!

JMU board nothing official but rumor

RE: Official - New Football Assistant Coaches
Back on topic, what we know so far:

Cignetti told Madia he plans to hire the best staff that be can.
Five of his assistants, the DFO, and strength coach are on board.

Elon OC Drew Folmar is a rumored candidate for Lehigh HC
Elon DC Tony Trisciani, who came from Villanova, runs the 3-3-5 defense which may not be a perfect fit here, and is rumored HC candidate for Elon.

Cignetti has said he is committed to continuing “4 down” defense at JMU.

Has anyone heard anything more?

I am only interested in what Elon is doing or not doing right now, the clock is ticking no decision is still a decision.

This sounds a little stalkerish, but if you look at social media, you can see Tony Trisciani and other coaches who are "liking" posts from players. Based on that, it looks like Trisciani is still here as well as a few defensive coaches and Fulmar for now.

One guy makes all the sense in the world and would be supported by the entire football alumni base. Tony Trisciani.

He coached Saquon Barkley as his HC in PA. Had major success at Villanova. Two separate stops at Elon plus CAA experience prior to his first stop at Elon w New Hampshire.

Trisciani would keep the recruits the team has got. And hold things steady with the current roster to continue to build the program.

[whoanellie]

I understand nowadays there has to be a vetting process and I am sure a lot of agents that Rep coaches are and have been lining up. I hope We get a decision soon! I heard the top dudes were NOT at the B/Ball game I hope We get a good if not great one.

Feels at the moment like a movie quote:

“they take this long to make a decision...they’re gonna decide to screw somebody.”

If Lembo would entertain coming back, it’s a great move. If not, go in-house with the DC.

What are thoughts on Shane Montgomery. I believe he was in the mix when Curt got the job. He spent this last season as the OC at Charlotte after several years as OC at Youngstown State. He played his college ball at NC State so he knows the state and the area. Was the position coach of Terrell Owens at Chattanooga and Ben Roethlisberger at Miami OH. Also has head coaching experience at Miami OH where he developed a young coach by the name of Sean McVay. He’s still relatively young as he’ll be 52 when next season starts. Seems like he might want another crack at a HC job and might be at the point of his career where he’d be happy staying at a place like Elon rather than bouncing in a couple years.

Hmmm going with a coordinator is not always best, case in point Carl Torbush when mac brown left. sometimes a great coordinator should stay a coordinator. Also Lembo is at the FBS level most likely wants to stay at that level. Again I THis is all opinion of course.

[Calling all Alumni]

Also why would Lembo leave facilities like these they make Elon look like a high school locker room. And the place does not look like a Bank...who was the decorator???
