McCollum to Iowa being finalized. Dang, that’s a great hire.

Going to be a real whiplash on the change of pace from Fran to McCollum.

[Navin R. Johnson]

McCollum might go on and become a very successful coach for Iowa, but I thought Fran did a pretty good job and it was always fun to see him build up and explode like a volcano.

Sounds like an angry old man like Tom Osborne. He would fit in really well. Huggins BTW is a huge drunk

[Faux Mike Peltz]

Not sure if you are being sarcastic, but “angry old man” has never been how I think of when it comes to Coach Osborne. 

[Cazzie22]

Texas Tech fans are nervous about Chris Del Conte meeting with their coach in Plainview at a motel as when they lured Beard away.

Wow

 

With CSU's job now open, associate head coach Ali Farokhmanesh is expected to be one of the top candidates to succeed Medved in Fort Collins.

[TourneyBound]

Boy, pretty big coaching upgrades in the conference if you ask me!!  Only going to get tougher!

Morale of this story...when we need to hire another basketball coach, use Drake's search firm or beg their AD for advice.

Any chance CSU would rehire Miles?

Some smoke that Adam Howard will be off to NC State

[The Polish Rifle]

Adam Howard could be on the move to join Will Wade. Could be on watch for a new Asst soon

[Navin R. Johnson]

You guys must be near the same teepee

It's been en vogue to hire back former coaches so put Craig Smith on the list.

Would be a little surprising if they don't roll with Farokhmanesh but who knows.

[The Polish Rifle]

Howard officially out. Wonder if Fred will wait for final 4 networking or if we have someone lined up.

This happened pretty quick, so Fred has to know it was coming. Not necessarily have someone lined up, but he has a few names in mind I assume

Yep, I get it but no thanks.  Put me in the camp that doesn't want to get their hands dirty.  There are plenty of successful, high character coaches out there to lead programs.  No need to sell our soul.
