Heist to ETSU???

How’s that possible? Pay the man and keep our top assistant here!! It’s not for the head coaching position. He’s our best assistant and works with our guards

Coach Heiar is a being pursued. That doesn’t mean he’s leaving.

No idea why he would leave for a non head coach job at a mid major unless he knows about upcoming sanctions

That’s a bit concerning. Or at least confusing.
He’s LSU’s #2 assistant and I suspect LSU could play FAR more than ETSU

Anyone got a link?

For the other posters that might be somewhat confused, they are talking about an assistant basketball coach.

Sounds like he wants to get from under Wade. He has not been able to get a mid major hc job And has interviewed for some. So either he feels Wade is seen as the dominant for e at LSU And needs to move elsewhere to prove himself. Or another reason to get away. He won’t be paid more. He is already our associate hc.

Heiar is a heck of a coach. He was an important piece with the Wichita State teams during their run over the last ten years. He helped develop Fred Van Vleet, Ron Baker, and Landry Shamet. Guard development took a step back once he left. Losing him would be a hit for LSU guards.
The old ETSU coach, Steve Forbes, was a firmer WSU assistant. They had reached out to Chris Jans, a former WSU assistant, and now are moving to Heiar. My guess is Forbes gave them a few names for guys he thinks could succeed like he did before he left for Wake Forest.
The last contract info I could find was Heiar making $300K/year. Forbes was up to $600k at ETSU. I’m assuming Heiar probably would start between $450k-$500k at ETSU as the head coach. I think it could be an interesting opportunity for him if he wants to run a program.

ETSU has a head coach, Jason shay.
This is for an assistant position

Oh shoot. I didn’t realize they had hired anyone yet. That would be a strange move for him, then. Not sure what he’s seeing.

Isn’t that the school that beat our arse at home last season?

Money play possibly. I’ve always thought Heiar wasn’t long for this staff anyway but it’d be as HC at a school like this. Would be disappointing to lose him to that school as an assistant

Coach Wade is absolutely the star and the reason for our success.
He puts together outstanding coaching staffs.
Assistants will come and go. Coach Wade is the best coach here since Saban or Bertman.
There’s a reason the most powerful folks at LSU are so loyal to him.

He hasn’t been able to get a HC job like he should. You can draw the conclusions for why. It sounds like going somewhere else to be an assistant is about trying to enhance those chances.
It would be a huge loss for Wade but it probably should have already happened anyways.
