Outdoor Track and Field on Flotrack 2013

NCAA Coaching Carousel Continues

Jul 25, 2013 by Jimmy Stevenson

The merry-go-round mayhem continues as there is yet another NCAA coaching change. Most recently Jason Dunn, former Men's Head Cross Country and Track and Field Coach for the University of Kentucky Wildcats (for only one year) is off to Oklahoma University. He will serve as the head coach for the men's cross country program in Norman, OK. During the indoor and outdoor seasons, Dunn will serve under new head coach, Jim Vanhootegem, who was the assistant track and field coach at Texas A&M the last nine years.

Who is next to take a spin on the crazy coaching carousel and find a new home?
