I suspect some Valley head and assistant coaches to be contacted for at least 4 of those jobs. One could directly impact our program. We’ll see.

Strange story regarding one of the Illinois State assistant coaches. Assistant Coach Walter Offutt was granted paternity leave last October, right before the season. The paternity leave ended in January, but he never did return to the team. Now 5 months later, his name has quietly been removed from the team's website. Head Coach Ryan Pedon is not commenting.

As usual, there has to be more to the story.
