chevyman Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 MV will likely be looking to hire an entire new staff for the second time in the last 2 years. Not much of a surprise to anyone in these parts. Kudos to AB for sticking out his 2 year contract. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lubbock just announced they are keeping wells as HC but getting rid of OC.....I’d be shocked if Art took a OC job maybe he has another spot picked out?

chevyman Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 MV folks are claiming that he told the kids he wanted to retire and focus on being a grandpa. If thats the case more power to him and i wish him luck. I just personally think that making an announcement only a couple of days after the loss is a good indication that he has something else lined up.

I believe every single person that was hired when he was, were brand new and had some sort of tie to him. I would assume that every one of those will be gone as well.

chevyman Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 Will be curious to see the potential candidates arise for this job. Obviously alot of exposure has come to the program since AB was there plus MV supt is the type that likes a make a big splash. They will return some good talent as well.
