Not a P5 job but definitely not a lateral move. Top job in the conference...and more money. Great city too.

Hire Matt McCall!
Re: Pat Kelsey
The CAA is a high high teen ranked conference and the big south is usually in the low 20s. I guess you guys and I have a different view of lateral. He’s going from a 1 bid conference to a 1 bid conference.
Re: Pat Kelsey
For a lot more money. That's what makes in not lateral.
Re: Pat Kelsey
Well yeah I’m guessing he gets more money. I’m specifically pointing out the quality of the conferences. Is winning at Charleston any more impressive than winning at Winthrop?

Re: Pat Kelsey
Lateral move coaching wise = a wash
Making twice as much money = happy wife
Happy wife, we all know the answer

Re: Pat Kelsey
It really was too bad Kelsey changed his mind even though i suspect he would already have moved on to a P5 job by now..

BREAKING: Louisville is closing in on a deal with College of Charleston’s Pat Kelsey that would make Kelsey the Cardinals head coach, sources told
@thefieldof68
.
Barring a last-minute breakdown in negotiations, a deal is expected between the two sides.
Kelsey is a Midwest guy who grew up in Cincinnati, has been a head coach at Winthrop and Charleston — and taken the Cougars to the NCAA tourney the past two seasons.
High, high energy, built a terrific culture in Charleston, gets his players to play hard and is considered a very good X’s and O’s coach.

Re: Pat Kelsey
I don't know how I feel about him TBH.
He was coming in to a somewhat toxic environment and he was smart enough to figure it out quickly. Does that make him a douche or smart? That could have turned out to be career suicide instead of a stepping stone?

Re: Pat Kelsey
Douche by the way he did it, leaving at literally the last second. The press, fans, and the band were assembled waiting for the press conference and he slipped out the back door.
Re: Pat Kelsey
Most of their fans don't think he will show up and other sources are saying he has not agreed to the deal. Too much drama for this guy. Besides, he owes me gas money. I drove an hour each way to see him not get introduced.

Re: Pat Kelsey
He's a fucking douche bag. Even if there was a shred of truth to the "toxic environment" that somehow continues to be perpetuated by some, the way he handled himself alone makes him a fucking douche bag.
