Two ACC and one Big Ten were originally reported as having interest.

Wonder if that is why this is taking so long?

 

[BudatWake]

Don't like the delay. Want this thing done

 

[DeacsOrDie]

Very strange that Sawvel to Wake is not yet official.

 

[CHillDeac]

Who is the other ACC team looking for a new DC?

Slim's shitty take was way too quickly glossed over here.

 

[Deacsfan27]

Yeah, this is about as good as we could do. We got the DC of another P5 school that took their defense to a spot ahead of ours this year in S&P+. That's phenomenal for Wake.

I don't know what the hell Clawson is doing, but I swear he could sell some damn snow to an eskimo.

I think we can revisit it from time to time. I understand wanting a more experienced DC but damn this dude delivers.

This is strangely addictive.

And I do not like dudes.

There was an Aerobics Championship in 1988 (lol) that Alan Thicke hosted. Amazing gifs have been made from that event.

In this kind of search is it common for the hiring HC to initiate contact with candidates of his choosing or is it more common for the HC to respond to the applications of interested parties?

Is it more probable that Clawson sought out Sawvel first or that Clawson responded to an initial inquiry by Sawvel?

Not that it matters ultimately, just wondering how the process ordinarily works.
