I don't think it's a step up, I don't think it's a step down, I think it's a better opportunity for this one dude in this one spot.

Wouldn't shock me at all to see Liberty run through this iteration of CUSA. Bringing up the question for everyone else. Is it better to be the big fish in a small pond?

Pretty oblivious to coaches its a step up or no reason to move.

They had a very good coach already and lost to UConn and were run over by NMSU. They will be a strong member but this conference will be tougher than many think.

It's only a "step up" in pay and resources. That is a step up sure, but a successful G5 coach isn't jumping to another G5 program for anything short of a massive raise. Liberty is only a better job than Coastal because of money.

I mean that goes along with better resources. In the current landscape Liberty is no better a job than Coastal is on paper, given the resources Liberty has a clearer path to becoming a premier G5 job.

I'm not following your logic. What, besides what was just outlined, "is on paper"?

Liberty is lacking the sort of winning culture that would make it a truly better job.

Is every single P5 job better than every single G5 job? They've got deep pockets, better facilities and attendance at even the absolute dregs of the P5 conferences.

As a coach you certainly want to get paid more and have more resources at your disposal, but that in and of itself does not make a job inherently better.

he's a $750,000 coach, at best, without Grayson McCall. Hiring a G5 coach that hasn't shown he can win with a different qb is just as big of a gamble as hiring a OC that hasn't proved he cab "coach" a program and not just one side of the ball.

Chadwell went 35-14 at Charleston Southern. No coach other than him has been a winner there as the program has been bad except when he was there. He had no McCall there.

Coastal fans didn't know what to expect after McCall left. The offense dropped off significantly with any other QB. It was like that before McCall was the starter and the same whenever he didn't play. This season really revealed that our QB depth wasn't where it needed to be. We could barely function on offense without him in the game.
