If I were AD I would make a run at Prohm first.

Kermit is a very good basketball coach. I think he would be an upgrade over Jones and Johnson and is a John Brady type without the abrasive personality.

I would expect nothing less from Joe Alleva

Cheap, easy, not in high demand. He checks all of Alleva's boxes

I don't get the local "knock" on Davis? He's surpassed anything we've seen in the last 10 years. Instant upgrade and yet people would bitch

I thought for sure it would be Rick Stansbury. He seems to be the type of coach and a "good fit" for Alleva !!

Kermit Davis is a lazy and convenient way for Alleva to find a new coach. Swing for big name coaches then settle for one of us type coach.

Yeah, at this point that would be a home run. These people expect to get someone like Izzo.

Why because he won a game he was favored to win? And he's been stuck at mid majors for 20 years because no AD at a real college has been stupid enough to hire him.

And if he lost the game that he was favored to win you would hold that against him too.

He's far from my first choice, but his team is 31 and fricking 4 and in the 2nd round of the tournament that LSU would have to buy tickets to get into.

He didn't have a 20 win season until his 10th year at MTSU

In 15 years at MTSU, he has made the tourney only 3 times

At MTSU, his win % against his conference peers is .600

It would be an awful hire

he's the purest definition of a stale hire. honestly I wouldn't be devastated if he were the guy but much younger. 57-year-old with 3 tournament appearances?

he'd have to bring in the dirtiest of bagmen to make this interesting

kermit really is the prototypical lazy, gift-wrapped hire Alleva is cool with that doesn't have a large buyout. I'm fully expecting this
