Chris Beard wanting to get out of the SEC eh? Texas—>Ole Miss—>KSU oh how the mighty have fallen. Not quite Tommy H, but close

Think the reality is a coach needs to be somewhere they are guaranteed 9-10 mill NIL moving forward if the top dogs are at 18-21’ish 

Kansas State is a sleeper to get to that number IMo 

Is LSU really a better job than NC State in this era? The only SEC school pouring less NIL into basketball might be OU.

The Will Wade whispers have been loud around here for a few months now. It makes no sense to me Louisiana does not produce any talent in hoops and he would be 4th on the totem pole. Thoughts? @Gerry Hamilton

I read that Maligi is a candidate at Tarleton State

Autry out at Syracuse, as expected

UNC-Greensboro is open

UL-Monroe is open

When Carmelo posted his feelings with an emoji on Twitter, and that horrible press conference trying to explain not playing him, I knew Autry was doomed. They never committed to a style of play. Seems like there was a war between the upperclassmen and the young guys and he couldn't bridge the gap.

I am surprised the UCLA coach hasn't been fired. He is such an odd dude.

Cronin's a good coach. He can be acerbic with the media, but he really knows what he's doing. 

Bobby Hurley officially out at Arizona State. 

Who will poach Travis Steele?

Will be interesting to see what level he has option to move to. 

He didn't do to well at Xavier vs. others who have sat in that seat

@Gerry Hamilton Any thoughts on North Carolina after their collapse last night?

 

Syracuse likely to poach former Orange star Gerry McNamara soon.

McNamara is currently the head coach at Sienna, who came up just shy of a massive upset victory over Duke on Thursday. 

UNC gig has opened

I dont think they get any of the big names they want but may be wrong. UNC is a blue blood but its lost its charm 

Not a big name and has hardly any experience but the High Point coach is pretty impressive and would bring the energy to compete with Scheyer

Yeah that’s why the move was made. 

Wade may be on the move
