Another rumor is Ed Cooley as a possibility to replace Welsh. Doubt that will happen now as Cooley is signing a contract extension today--and I think he was the highest paid coach in the MAAC to begin with, after Fran's departure. |

I would think Cooley's next step would be to a higher level than Hofstra.

Three points: 1. Norm Roberts seems like a natural for the Hofstra job. 2. With Mike Rice now the RU HC, Fred Q., another Fordham guy, might be a natural to join him. 3. A darkhorse for the Iona job, might be Tim O'Toole (should Grasso leave). He interviewed for the Columbia job. Would Big Jeff run down Hempstead Turnpike?  |

An extension to 2016? Does that mean he can only leave FF in even number years?

We all know extensions don't mean much, at least for the college. I read that Mike Rice recently agreed to an extension till 2016, I believe.

It makes you wonder about the value of contracts and who they protect.

That would be great for him.
I would think he would do a credible job.
It will be rough for a new coach given some players are leaving Hofstra and it is late in the recruiting period.

Perhaps a blessing in disguise for DeMeo? Makes me think about the tragic circumstances that placed former Loyola HC Dino Gaudio into the Wake HC spot.
