This is something I'm not considering, and doubt that I would ever consider, but wanted to know if anyone else had thought of it. Is there anything that would stop a coach from managing two teams at the same time by constantly flipping back and forth between the two schools every other season, and balancing the recruiting classes so that all of the players are signed in the seasons that you would have each team? I suppose you would probably need to do this in D3 to reduce the likelihood that a different coach would snatch one of your teams in the off-season.

I don't see how this would violate any fair play rules since there aren't any actual advantages from doing it. It's actually a pretty dumb idea to begin with, but seems like it could be a fun/silly challenge for a coach looking for something different. At the D3 level, seems like you could theoretically build two teams that would be in the national tournament every season, maybe win a game or two. I doubt it'd be possible to actually build two title contenders simultaneously though.

Not 100% sure but pretty sure if you change jobs that frequently your loyalty hit could eventually prevent any other school from hiring you without sticking at one of the programs for a couple seasons?

ab90 would take your other team if they got any good lol

This doesn't work at all because of how loyalty worked in job changes, right?

8.6.1

Yeah that's what I was trying to articulate above. Pretty sure loyalty would eventually keep you stuck.

I've never found myself in this position, but you're saying that I couldn't get any DIII job because of the loyalty factor? I guess that makes sense, and certainly if your team got any amount of success it'd be even more difficult to get back to that team.
