Congratulations to Wake Forest AD Ron Wellman and to his new basketball coach, Danny Manning. CSA happy to have been of service. Go DEACS!

Assuming this is it: http://collegiatesportsassociates.com/

And yea, here is a direct confirmation of their "recent placement" of DM w/ WFU: http://collegiatesportsassociates.com/recent-placements/. Interestingly, they also (apparently) assisted in placing Buzz Williams at VT.

They also claim both the new VT AD and Buzz.

He does.

 

[OvaltineJenkins]

no wonder Odom said he fully endorsed the Manning hire

 

[sailordeac]

So the last Wellman hire was not entirely a Wellman hire?

How the hell do you get a job doing that? Seems like a sweet gig.

This is really interesting. Glad Wellman got some help. An Accsports.com article today says Wake only had serious contact with 2 candidates, Smart and Manning, while we had "agent-level" contact with other coaches. I guess maybe some of that contact may have been through this search firm.

Well, first you compile 30 years of college AD experience and then you start your own company.

We got the short end of that one.

 

[RacerDeac]

Looks like they did a better job for VT (AD and Buzz Williams) than they did for us.

 

[Ball State Deac]

Probably just vetted some potential hires.
