Charlotte Men's Soccer Coach Leaving?!?!?

Insider information:

Just heard from a very reliable source that our mens soccer coach is moving on… I was not provided further details or a team that he is going to…

Just wondering if someone can confirm?

Heard hes heading to Stanford??!?

Would be a bummer if true, but not surprising.

Hopefully we can continue the success regardless.

Can’t confirm, but this would be in line with TF spotting some troubling tweets.

confirmed on stanford website

Best wishes to Coach Gunn and thanks for building the program into a title contender.

So disappointing. I hope the best for him, but damn that hurts.

@davidscott14 confirms. Coach Gunn is off to the west coast.

s***!

I wish him well though. I suppose this is the sign of program progress at our level. ::slight_smile:

Well, on the bright side, they called us the University of Charlotte. :slight_smile:

Good Luck Coach Gunn !

I am looking forward to the chance to continue to develop and learn from such a successful athletics department

Not surprising in the least. Congratulations and good luck, Coach Gunn. Thank you for your dedication and the memories.

Did we even try to keep him, or was it out of the question?

I wish Coach Gunn the best.

Yeah, according to the press release, we made him a counter-offer.

Sucks, but no one should be surprised. Judy has a pretty good track record of hiring coaches. We’ll see what happens this go 'round.

Yeah sad but true. Sucks too as I had very high hopes for next year.

I still do.

I think we’ll be ok next year. It’s the years after next that are in question. Like someone said, Judy has developed a good track record, so I’m hoping for the best.

We could lose current players and recruits… add in a new coach/style and I seriously doubt we will be ok next year. But you just never know.
