Scott Drew is not on the list. Not even on the honorable mention list. Surely his interest can be tickled, yes?

Anyway, I like Archie Miller and Steve Prohm. Either would be a home run.

Prepare to be underwhelmed. I fully expect it to be Kermit Davis.

We'll never get miller. however, I keep wondering if Drew might want out of Waco with all the scandal and drama surrounding baylor. he already owns louisiana recruiting too

Where do I apply? I'll take half of what JJ was making. If less fans come to SEC play than last year, I'll pay back 100% of my earnings.

They seem more certain on prohm than i would have thought.

Id take him or musselman in a heartbeat.

By every indication on paper, Trent Johnson was a home run.

There is almost never a sure thing when it comes to coaching hires.

The advocate is lazy. So don't look too far into their lists.

NC St. fired their coach mid-season with one replacement in mind, Archie Miller.

I still don't understand the Brey talk other than a leverage play for him. Northeast guy who has built a great program at ND with primarily Northeast players. Probably not a great fit for him or LSU (even though Alleva, the guy who hired Trent Johnson, doesn't think "fit" matters)

Beard has a long history in TX. Maybe would have been a candidate last season, but I can't see him leaving TTU after just one season

Brey and JA have a long relationship

Miller would be great but not likely

IF not those two my guess is it will be someone not on the list

Lol. Prohm isn't going anywhere. He's about to win another Big 12 tourney title.

Now he does have some rebuilding to do losing Monte this year but I don't see LSU offering enough to lure him away.

Plus his kids are really settling into Ames from what I hear.

Is Buzz Williams seriously a possibility? I would be down for that. Otherwise Prohn seems solid based purely on resume.

I do t think Brey, Miller, or Prohm are realistic candidates at all. They leverage for a raise at best.

And damn, Va. Tech is paying Buzz $2.7?? frick
