You are pushing semantics - he has a tenure track position.
I am not familiar with the situation at the NESCAC schools, but I do know that at schools where coaches are given faculty status they are not tenured as coaches, but rather tenured as faculty members.
They don't have a right to their coaching position, but only as a member of the faculty in the department they are assigned to.

Some NESCAC schools give coaches the title of "professor" but it is only a title and does not come with tenure rights . .
Unless something has changed, I think his roots are pretty firmly planted in here Plattsburgh. His wife is a school teacher. For her to leave now, I believe she'd lose all the seniority she's garnered at her current position. I don't think him moving to Middlebury is a big enough move to trump the importance of her tenure. That's just a guess and I could be complete wrong about that.
My feeling is that the only job he'd leave the Plattsburgh women's team for is the Plattsburgh men's team. The women's game is competitive enough (I think the occasional games with Elmira, Middlebury, Norwich, etc. trump the really bad games he has to help the women navigate...)

If corn oil is made from corn, and vegetable oil is made from vegetables, then what is baby oil made from?
Nichols's Swallow also played 2 years at Dartmouth before transferring to U of Maine so he has
the 'Middlebury' required smarts. Also was an assistant at Neumann.
Been some time since there was a posting on this thread. Anything new to report?
Why wait so long to name the guy everyone assumed anyway???
Maybe I'll be proven wrong, but I'm not impressed. Seems like kind of a comfortable lazy choice probably made by Beaney.
Sinclair's results as a coach just aren't that great.
