The Golden Eagles let go of their coach today and coach Lambs name came up on the top of the list of replacements. This would be more of a lateral move, but it would not shock me If he leaves after this year. you could tell his voice When I askEd He was extremely frustrated with not hosting

His name has already been floated at Arkansas State and if Chadwell leaves Liberty he’ll be looked at there. His next move is up the chain, not laterally.

I think he likes it here and he is under contract for a while but a big school could buy that out no issue

It’s my understanding the school did not bid.
As for jobs I would think Tennessee Tech and ETSU would both be very attractive. More resources. A coordinator spot at a larger school (FBS/power 5) would be attractive at this point too. He’s earned it. GW isn’t a long term stop.

ETSU is in worse financial shape than GW by a long shot. They’re firing coaches left and right up there.
When Lamb leaves it’ll be for a higher level job.

Anyone have an idea of Lambs salary? TTU was paying former coach 185k. ETSU was paying 225k. IMO you dont leave a program you have built into a conference power without at least doubling your salary. Now Tennessee does have the perk of no income tax but I still think ETSU and TTU are program resets for minimal salary increase.

Lucky if he’s getting $150K.
Me thinks he is already getting feelers from several areas. He could be a P5 QB coach or coordinator this time next year, and triple his current salary at minimum in the process.
His body language told it all during that Zoom conference yesterday when Jake asked him about hosting. I don’t blame him one iota for being pissed about it. You’ve got to reward your staff and players when they succeed. Again, D2/NAIA mindset while trying to play big boy athletics. It doesn’t work.

Do we know of any investments around the football facilities that aren't minor facelifts? In this day of recruiting, especially with the transfer portal where recruits are used to the luxuries, how is GWU helping Lamb attract talent? Its seems schools like Campbell are getting it right. www.youtube.com/watch?v=sPN6EZplUZQ

When your NIL money comes from the Snack Shop and Quik Snack, you can’t expect much

Campbell hasn’t had a winning record in a while. They need to maybe get a coach who can … well coach. Gardner-Webb has done very well with its net gains from the portal, with very few significant losses. Very few. Coaching staff is great in that area. Great.

His name is in the hat at an ACC program for OC/ QB coach. I think that's a logical progression from his perspective. NO possibility of an ETSU or TTU gig being a move. As Old Dog said, treasure the opportunity to see GW lifted over the past disasters by this great young coach

I think it's a foregone conclusion that he is gone sooner rather than later.I have no problem with that it shows have hired good coaches. Let's just hope he doesn't take everyone with him like Simmons did

Napier is on the hot seat at UF and pressure building to hire an OC. Lamb and Napier families intertwined in high school football in Georgia, Napier even had Bobby on staff at Louisiana one season.
Yeah, I’m a Gator fan. Let me dream a bit about having Tre calling plays.

Are you speculating or confirming?
