re: Sources: Walker leading candidate to get NMSU job

either that, or the 'leak' that Chavis is a done deal in the last 24 hours is because Walker let Miles know he's getting the NMSU job

And we'll never know (thankfully) all of the details, and complexities of how the decision was made and what offers were made to whom. I agree that Walker is a hot property right now. His thinking is probably similar to mine - the bar is so low at NMSU, that one or two years could be his ticket, IF he can show just modest success there. However, big schools are trending away from requiring a coach to have HC experience, though it will be a big boost for Walker, who I see as a straight college guy, who will be a big school HC some day.
