    That is tough one...Hardin Simmons coach might be the best in D3 and I would think he would be someone if interested they would look at. Same goes for maybe a Trinity in Texas...while not at the same academic level they are certainly top notch coaches...may not have the NCAA deep runs as often but also dont have the resources or academics to be there every year...The Disckinson coach struggled at Hamline before moving to Dickinson...I still think he is the front runner..

    I don’t think they will look at any coach who doesn’t have experience finding those rare academic soccer players. If the 1500 problem is real, and I think it is, then that limits the candidate pool right off the bat. Add to that an acceptance rate at right below 13% and you’ve created an even smaller pool of similar experience. Williams acceptance rate was similar, CMU’s much higher, MIT & Chicago’s two of the lowest in the country.

    While the Dickinson coach is a natural choice based on being an alum and a former assistant at JHU (which may be a negative for the new AD), the school he recruits for isn’t in the same neighborhood as Hopkins academically. They accept Over 50% of applicants and their average SAT is more than 100 pts lower than their Centennial foe.

    Compared to the Dickinson option, it would make more sense to keep the current asst on as the head coach. Carries the same baggage being part of the old regime, but he knows the current players (including the incoming class) and it sounds like he was acting as the head coach without the recognition for at least the last couple of years.

    If the AD’s issue was more health related and less wins-losses, that would seem to be a good fit.

    When Yale replaced their Head coach last year they picked someone who did not come from a background of recruiting and coaching academic elites. Of course he only lasted one season before the student newspaper torpedoed his tenure there so maybe they won't do that again.

    Any additional news on JHU? Not exactly the best time of year to get traction on a hiring process. Assuming we will hear a lot in January.

    and their message boards http://www.d3boards.com/index.php?board=1523.0
    Also check their twitter account for announcements.

    Why is Williams taking so long? They've known for some time now.

    Williams doing on campus interviews over next 2 weeks. Current coach still there through academic year so they aren't in a hurry. D3 schools generally dont like to pay 2 people at the same time.

    Another difference between D1 and D3: The Oregon coach resignation was announced November 8 (Seven year record 47-74-13) and they announced hiring two time WC winning USWNT goalkeeper coach Graeme Abel as the new head coach on December 30.

    BTW, Eugene, OR native and HS senior GK Hailey Coll signed a National Letter of Intent in 2018 to play under the previous Oregon coach (she said she grew up wanting to be a Duck). She is on the NWSL draft list released yesterday, which she may have applied for before the new Oregon coach was named.

    Which suggests to me that maybe she will be the Thorns' #3 backup keeper. They carry two on the roster, plus have a third available. If one of those three is moving on, the Thorns will want to replace her. Coll has been on the Thorns' youth team. This would let her train under the guidance of one of the best female GKs ever, who also has turned out to be an excellent GK coach.

    Thanks for responding here! I just posted about Coll in the 2020 NWSL draft thread - sort of double posting, but I figured the two readerships are different. Your points make me think that Coll really was/is strategizing to go pro and skip college.

    Thanks! Sorry I missed her. Now that you mention it, I recall noticing her name the first time I scanned the updated list, but unfortunately it did not stick in my head. So she is another from D3:

    The final list for the 2020 Draft was posted well after 4pm yesterday and it had 90 or so new names. They don’t list the added players separately, so it is time consuming to read the list and ID the non-D1 players, because outside of D3 and the obvious D1 schools, I do not know which school is in which division.

    In addition to Taylor Cohen, I also missed Brianna Lau , M/D, of D3 Pomona Pitzer in my previous post, sorry. (I even had her highlighted in yellow)

    Here are names and schools of the Non-D1 Players added to the draft list; we finally have some NAIA players, and one more high-schooler. Of course, I may have missed or miss-identified someone.

    NAIA
    Madeleine Berthoud, F/M, Westmont College
    Abigail Bush, M/D, University of Mobile
    Cheyne Bush, F, University of Mobile
    Heidi Giles, D, University of Mobile
    Anna Haeberlin, GK, Keiser University

    D3
    Jenna Beck, D, Salisbury University

    D2
    Ashley Dozier, M/D, St. Mary’s University
    Annsion Fucci, M, Georgian Court University
    Emma Heikkila, F/M, Nova Southeastern University
    Megan Kneefel, GK, Fort Hays State University
    Mary Reilly, F/M/D, University of California San Diego

    High School
    Chelsea-Anne Calder, D, Braintree HS, Braintree MA

    Thanks, CoachJon, for taking time to list the players.

    This list from NWSL may be more inclusive. It also list the youth clubs that the players were affiliated with.

    https://www.nwslsoccer.com/news/art...st-of-players-eligible-for-2020-college-draft

    I'm wondering about the HS players that are eligible. If they make themselves available for the draft and are not selected, does that mean that they are no longer eligible for collegiate soccer?

    I believe they are still eligible. See this post from @BostonRed [Item 12.2.4.2.4 Exception—Sports Other Than Basketball and Football]

    https://www.bigsoccer.com/threads/2020-nwsl-draft.2107087/page-2#post-38400522

    Hailey Coll committed to Oregon, so I believe she needs to notify them, if she does want to play there.
    I could not readily find any info about college for Chelsea-Anne Calder.
