Soccer Citowicki leaving for Wazzu?

[Speakfactsonly]

This is not accurate.

Again, not true on the 2026s. Several would be an upgrade to those that left due to roster limits and other coaches changes that recently happened. Second, you have a better chance signing 2026s that are hungry to play and develop them rather 10 transfers. You need a mix. Agree on the 2027s. Already there are over 1,098 2027s committed to over 284 schools so the 2027s are being picked clean too. Chris only had 3 2027s verbally committed because he had a large 2026 class so the effort to track and recruit

You know what will really help get a new soccer coach hired? Panicking on a message board. Clearly asking why hasn't a coach been hired over and over and over and complaining about the same things over and over are working and speeding up the process.

You may as well just spam Haslams email.

Bad take.

Multiple people have been emailing him and Jean they don’t respond to email or phone messages we need answers.

True. Certain people deserve answers to questions. Not anyone and everyone. But those truly connected to the program LIKE PLAYERS deserve transparency.

 

[MontanaGrizSoccer]

So do we think Weber wasn’t offered or turned it down? I still think it’s the latter.

Yes he was offered. If anyone is telling/saying anything different they either are lying or are being lied to

 

[MontanaGrizSoccer]

Oh, I'm all in agreement with some of what's going on...I just cannot imagine coach 5 will turn it down.

Troy coaches base pay last season was 138k

Northwestern State has one of the worst athletic department's in the country. It's probably the worst job in the Southland Conference, and they're pretty bad across the board in sports. The Griz played them in Football in 22 and beat them 47-0. Later that year their coach got fired over some weird scandal and they ended up forfeiting the rest of the season. I also don't think their Men's Basketball has ever made the NCAA tournament before, and if they have then it's been a very long time. The fact that Gore made them a championship caliber team says a lot about his coaching abilities. I don't blame him for leaving there the first opportunity he had. IDK why things got sideways on him at Troy, if that's just a tough job or what, but I do think he can coach, and if he were to come here, he would receive a lot more support than he did at either Troy or NWSU. I've warmed up to him.

His base pay last season was 138k.

Are you sure about that?

 

[MontanaGrizSoccer]

Are you sure about that?

100 percent. Once it comes out why negotiations fell apart I think AD will have tough questions to answer.

Care to elaborate because I doubt that will be the case.

Records show he made $83,750 in 2025.

Think that was total compensation

If anybody takes this board seriously they have problems.

 

[MontanaGrizSoccer]

Apparently Allie Long was/is in Missoula and we need a soccer coach, just saying

Fair.

Griz are requiring 5 years of college coaching experience, so crazy enough, Allie Long wouldn't qualify for even an interview, but I'm on board with that idea.

Gore is on campus now, hopefully he likes UM and can make this work.

Thanks for the update. Hopefully the contract terms have evolved. Anyway to get renderings of the new locker room.

 

[Griz til I die]

Lol, what a day for him to be on campus.

 

[MontanaGrizSoccer]

Lol, what a day for him to be on campus.

Does anyone know where he is currently living

 

[UptheGriz]

SidelineCoach any updates on Coach Gore, did people like him, did he like us?

Seems like people liked him and he would be a good addition to UM. Think he’s having dinner with front office folks tonight.
But we have been through this dance before hopefully they modify the coaches package a little bit so we can keep this guy and move forward. The ladies, fans, and donors deserve to have an answer.
