You bring up an interesting point with the players leaving.
I see it more and more every year--kids have no patience and do not wait for their time to come.
It doesnt just happen at Coastal--it happens all over-- and many leave for no apparent reason other than lack of playing time
How many played varsity as freshman in HS?
As a college freshman it is even tougher-- players need to be patient
Are we coddling the players too much in HS and are we leading them to believe things that are not true?
I think the problem is that these players are "elite" and many haven't been on the bench since they were ..... probably never (even if that meant being the star freshman on the soph team).
They get to the big-time and all of a sudden the whole dugout is filled with guys that are just as talented as they are.
I wouldn't be surprised if coaches observe dugout behavior and playing at alternative positions at the showcases -- that could give you an idea about who will be trouble down the line.

The NCAA has a new system which will somewhat restrict coaches from going the Juco or transfer route.
In turn this will restrict player's from transferring so often. I'm not sure of the exact rule, but grades and graduation have a lot to do with it.
The bottom line is a loss of scholarship's.
Can someone who knows help me out.

The scores have already been revised---the UCONN basketball program was listed as a failure. Now they are A-OK due to re-evaluation.
The forumula needs reworking , at least in my eyes, so as to account for JUCO players coming in for years 3 and 4 in college. They also need to address baseball players being drafted after their junior year as well as basketball players leaving early for the draft.
What is going to happen now that the NBA as decided that HS players must wait a year after graduation to join the NBA DRaft ?--Does this mean a kid goes to college for one year and then jump into the draft? If so how does this impact the evaluations.
As usual the NCAA in their efforts to make things clearer only makes the water muddier

Thanks for the post. It is a school that is on our top 5 list. Gilmore is a great part of that reason and his status could affect future secisions. Please update with any forthcoming news.
slo-mo
This might sound like a dumb question but id the CC program is on your Top 5 list why arent you doing your homework
Why do we have to update you?
If I were you I would be on top of this situation like cream cheese on a NY bagel. Searching the internet for all the info I can find--If I can find it so can you !!!!
Due diligence is needed here by you, not others

I am trying to stay on top of things by reading this web-site religously. I have found it to supply more info than anywhere else. Funny, Coach Gilmore didn't mention his plans when I spoke to him two days ago. Got any inside scoop on UNC, or UNO?
slo-mo
Perhaps Coach Gilmore doesnt know his plans at this point so how can he tell you--he is in negotiations-- who knows what the result be !
UNC--UNO-- what are asking?

How about the coaching staff's reputation and long-term plans at UNC or UNO? Do you have any inside information on their programs...just trying to do my homework. THANKS!
are they going anywhere?
Actually, I know the UNO coaches are not going anywhere for awhile, but I'm uninformed about Coach Fox and crew. SO, do YOU think Gilmore is leaving and where do YOU think he will go?
slo-mo
If you are asking me about Coach Gilmore I know nothing and even if I did this is not the time or place for me to say anything
UNIFORMED about Coach Cox are you ---do this--sit down with a cup of coffee and research where the man has been and what he has done. You might start with the bio of Coach Fox
You are like the kid I knew in HS--always wanting someone to do his homework assignments
Not for nothing but some of you could do a bit more homework before asking questions-- this sort of question makes me wonder who you are and why you ask the questions you do
I do my homework--why don't you ?

Hey TR...I know because of your humility you may not understand that you (and many others on the site) ARE resource materials for the homework that many of us on this site do. 
Hey Daddybo
That may well be but it would be nice if you did a bit on your own before asking questions

slo-mo,
Did you read the link CV provided? It leads you to myrtlebeachonline, if you are interested, keep following the story. Anyone can pick up the local gossip by reading the newspapers close to the school or finding out if they have a scout.com site for more information.
No coach is going to mention to anyone about leaving, especially potentials recruits.
TR and many others here provide a wealth of information, but we just can't keep up with everything
How is TR supposed to know who is leaving and who is staying.
I admit many come here for information on programs without first doing their homework

It is clear from the article that Coach Gilmore is undecided at this time. It is just as clear that he is depending on CC to make the decision for him. (Crest of the wave etc.)
As one of the best coaches in the country, let alone the best, imo, available, CC had better act quickly or I would color him gone!
With big school's like A&M and MSU throwing the big dough around Coach Gilmore deserves a huge increase.
As a big fan of CC I hope this gets done. I'm concerned that they did not try very hard to host the regional. Whatever $ they think they saved with that blunder, they should earmark for coach Gilmore.

soxnole,
I agree that they need to step up now or kiss him good bye.
The regional hosting was probably not their decision since I don't think their current stadium (seating wise) is anywhere near big enough. They have plans to build a new stadium having 3000 seats for the 2007-08 season. They claim in their baseball program that 3000 is the minimum required for hosting a regional.

CC was awarded the #1 seed in Arizona, due to lack of facilities that would support a regional in that area. I am not sure if lack of good money for a bid was a factor or not.
Same went to College of Charleston, though considered for facilities, someone goofed and burned out the outfield grass, not being able to be improved this year.

I was thinking that the very nice minor league stadium could have been used to host. I'd like to know the inside story on that as I'm sure coach Gilmore wanted to host in the worst way.
...maybe the stadium wasn't available?
In any case coach Gilmore needs to be taken care of before the big boy's wake up and come calling on him.

Soxnole,
I am not sure, could be bid amount, stadium unavailable, rules prohibiting use of such facilities?
Will try to find out.

Latest news on retaining the head coach. Sounds positive.

Also interesting to note at the end of the article is all the D1 coaches that have apparently used the Oklahoma situation and others as leverage to renew their current contracts.

Read in USA Today that Gilmore got a 4 year contract with Coastal. Good News for everyone attending. Anyone have info on who will replace Jarman? Is Coach Schnall still there?
Coach Schnall is still there.

I have heard only rumors, but nothing that I can substantiate from other sources yet and I have tried. They may be unfounded speculation.
I did find it "interesting" that ETSU is leaving the SOCON this year after dropping their football program. Coastal cranked up it's football program in 2003. In the absence of any announcements by this point, nothing could happen prior to the 2006-2007 season.
According to "College Sports Info" web site: http://www.collegesportsinfo.com with a note as last updated in February of 2005, Coastal has expressed interest in joining the SoCon. It would be a natural fit since College of Charleston and The Citadel are already members.
The reason that they could not host the regional was because the minor league stadium was already booked for that weekend and there was no way to get around it. However, for the next couple of years until the stadium is finished being upgraded the minor league stadium has been reserved for those dates in case of another chance to host.
