Replacing Tashard Choice. Perhaps they are trying to cast a broad net.

Got it. I knew about Choice, but figured the post would have been more specific (at least offense vs. defense asst. coach), but maybe not.  Thanks!

I find it slightly concerning that we don't have a few names on a short list to replace Coach Choice. 

Edit:

I was not aware of the job posting being required by law.

Who says he does not he has to post per Texas state law.

Probably does, but as stated above, Texas law requires the position to be posted.

There is no Texas employment law that states you are required to post a job opening.

I’m not sure about football coach positions specifically, but many state government jobs in education must be posted for a period of time. For example, teaching positions. It wouldn’t be too far of a stretch to go from public education posts being required to positions at a state university also being required.

Government entities generally can't hire someone without posting it to the public first. Even if they have a short list of candidates in mind.

Yes I am not sure why this is a surprise to anyone. It occurs every single time.

I remember various job postings for head coach openings in the past. I remember something about not officially filling positions until they had been posted for a specific minimum amount of time. Perhaps @Brett Vito can write something about this being correct or not!

I believe there is regarding the hiring of an employee for a state institution.

Doug Meacham would be a steal. Even if he's only here for a couple of seasons.

I figure he will be in the running for Houston OC opening. If Graham left I could see him being a replacement. But I doubt we can get him hear without at least a Co offensive coordinator title

[All About UNT]

Clay Mcguire just got hired by Texas St. as the O-Line coach.

Meacham would need at least a "Co-" associated with his title but proximity to his home is still an advantage we have.

Just because we have to post the opening doesn't mean we don't have candidates in mind, or unofficially hired.

Texas State highest paid assistant last year made 140k.

North Texas had 7 assistants over 145k. With 3 over 250k.

Texas state may have drastically raised assistant pool. But I doubt it. If UNT wants him they could get him. He has connections with Seth, Mainord, Graham and Joel. He could also be one year away from bouncing to back to a  p5 with seth. As opposed to beginning a rebuild in San Marcos. If Seth and co want him I think they could get him. But I think there is another name Seth has higher on his list.

Garrett Riley is the guy. He is going to be the next RB coach

If all goes well the whole staff is a one year rental. That means we had another great year
