Atop the Cam Henderson Center, the area known as "Herd Heaven" will feature large banners that say "The Herd" and "Marshall" across the top in a move that was put into motion to create a more intimate setting, as well as a safer environment for Marshall fans. With the addition of the banners, the new seating capacity of the Cam Henderson Center will now be 5,467 fans.

"The banners are there for safety reasons and to ensure our fans have access to great seats just below them," Spears said.

LMAO

The "DD Effect"

I hope DD is happy that he's running Bball into the ground

What a disgrace, and unbelievably selfish that he's not retiring

They will be six feet under next season.

Well scope if Danny waters down the OOC schedule even more and the SB sucks even more, you never know. We might end up about 17-14 next year with a trash schedule. Then they can fill half the non tarped arena and claim success. If you can't get excited about a 77 year old high school coach then what would it take? lol!!!

And they will probably offer him another 4 year contract.. Just unreal

This will be Dan?s last week as Marshall Coach

I posted in another thread that at the UK softball game last Wednesday, the Big Green brass said no definitive decision had been made but Christian Spears would make a statement soon.  Time will tell if BJS is correct.

I don't think DD is retiring based on what I've heard

But if DD were to retire, I think the only way he would walk away is if we hire Corny

Who would take that deal?

At this stage I say yes (even though I don't think Corny deserves the job) or we are stuck with 2 more years of DD

What say Herd fans?

Well let?s see.  One year of pain with Corny vs 2 with Dan.  Give Corny 1 year which allows you to do a thorough coaching search.

If Dan is here next year, I hope the AD forces him to play two money games on the road. The other Marshall sports teams  play money games so it is only fair that Dan has to contribute to the bottom line. First of all, it adds needed revenue to Marshall.  Second Dan needs to understand that his program is not a viable D1 program.

I agree, if DD stays, do not let them put together a soft schedule in order to pad the win total.

I could see Marshall working out a deal with Dan to walk away, "retire" and move Corny up to HC with a 3 year deal, no buyout. This would be done only to appease the big donors of b'ball and keep them engaged. This would allow Dan to pick his successor and make it all look clean and smooth. I don't think Corny would be the guy to move us forward, but it would be a change. Maybe an announcement of some sort coming later this week?

It's too bad, schools like ours have to make these type decisions with money to big driver. I wish we were awash with cash like the P5's, then we fire coaches without ramifications from donors who want to take their ball and go home.

[BigJimslade]

Likely will happen today

[chris88]

Hiring Corny without a search is almost as bad as DD staying.  Call John Brannen and another 3-4 guys who have interest and let Corny interview if he wants. Choose the best guy. Letting 1-2 donors dictate hires gets you M Snyder. Unless those donors pledge to fund a new arena than tell them to stay in their lane.

I say barf and I can't believe this could even be a possibly...."I think the only way he would walk away is if we hire Corny ". Do we really give coaches this much power here? If so, we deserve 100 seasons of losing. If this is how our sports are run...it's worse than I ever thought...

I mean, how would Spears word this in his resume?!? LOL

Never heard of such a thing.  WVU just fires and hired a good coach.  Marshall is so backwards.  Deserve to lose games and fans.  Corny jackson bring named HC promoted from assistant of one of worst bb teams in nation.  I?m done with mbb with these promotions.  I thought the track & field hire process was mind boggling but this would be far worse.

[miltonherdfan]

i just looked up & re-read the press release announcing corny's "promotion" to assoc HC.  i think it's worth noting that it was ALL DD -- the promotion, the quotes, everything.  there was NO mention of or quotes from anyone else -- not CS, not brad, nobody.  if this CJ 'next man up' theory had any cred at all or was in any way officially agreed upon by someone with the authority to do something about it, you'd think there woulda been somebody else that either DD would've alluded to or that would've gone on record in this release as to have agreed to something formal in nature taking place.  it comes across as nothing but a title he can put on his resume now.

suffice to say, i was encouraged after reading it, again.  😂

Boom

[muherd34]

lol,  no offense to CJ.  But this is such a MU hire.  Hope it works out?

[GreenWhite]

Well Champ, you got an answer.

[THECHAMPISHERE]

Well Champ, you got an answer.

haha yep. And then we're too lazy to even spend 32 seconds on a coaching search.

I despise wvu...but when you look at the process they developed...data driven, analytical, results driven, success driven...a multi faceted calculated research heavy all encompassing approach to hiring a coach...when you hear the details about their process...a process by the way that takes no money...just work...just time...just effort...that the very poorest of anybodies (and even nobodies) can embark on....it makes you sick how we handle things.
