This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.

Important notes on articles:

• Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
• Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
• If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

The Job Posting States 10+ Years of Experience Is Necessary by dillon77

"Division I coaching (assistant or head) of 10 years is a requirement."

I went back and looked at the thread we did a few weeks back on the ND coaching tree. While there's a lot of alums/former assistant coaches in the business, very few that are available fit that 10+ year requirement, particularly ones who coach posts.

As noted, Riley, Achonwa and Dev Peters all come up with gooseggs on that front. (Achonwa does have interest in coaching, btw, once done with playing.) Ariel Braker and Markesha Wright only have a few years each.

The only current Irish alum coaching posts and having recruiting experience is Melissa D'Amico at Wake Forest, but even she only racks up seven years total experience (2 at Colgate, 3 at Yale and 2 at Wake).

So, if Niele/Carole are going different ways, I'd think the look is outside the ND coaching tree.

If it was someone with PG experience, Michaela could slide over to the shooting guard/wing roll. Stay tuned!
