Better call Saul.  Wisconsin roots, wants something bigger than NDSU.  Pretty sure he will at least get a call on this.

Former UCLA coach Ben Howland wants Marquette. He wants back in the Big East. He makes sense to continue similar path of play.

This!!!

You get somebody who wants to be at MU and of that list find the very very very best BBall person in that group.  Take a look at most all of the great programs.  They have one thing in common.  A coach that stayed for a long time.

I would have never thought that I would say this.  But Wardle doesnt sound bad.  Im sure MU could get a bigger name.  But would that "Name" just leave in a few years?

Wardle makes sense. MU ties and he just felt the wrath of being a low mid-major coach this season.

He seems a little crean like if you ask me. (not in a good way)

Chew.  There's a reason we overbid Illinois for him.  With the way Chicago churns out recruits, we need the connection.

Is Shaka Smart a legitimate candidate? I'm deeply in love with our program, but even I know we don't have the pull of a Kentucky or Kansas to lure a great coach away from a solid program.

I am confused why the first person people mention is the same coach people use as an example for how a coach should come out and say he doesn't want to leave his current school.

We'll... except if it is leave to come to our school

Barring a home run like Shaka, Howland.  He wants to be here, and that sounds great to me.  Need a full body and since he's been around he won't have his head up his butt and one foot out the door.

I don't see us getting Shaka.  Howland or Chew would be good.  Not too sure about Wardle.  I don't think we would get Amaker either.

Something tells me he'd consider MU seriously....maybe it's just the fact I bleed blue and gold but whatever I still think they'd be doing a disservice to the program to not look into it

This is a very important Coaching transition for the MU basketball program.  MU could very easily slump into a state of mediocracy (aka the 90's), if it does not make a splash with it's coaching hire. Now would not be the time to be taking a risk with an up and coming, unproven coach (i.e. Wardle)!  It is crucial that MU hires a coach with a National Reputation (i.e. Howland).  It is really too bad that Bruce Pearl is off the market.

If Wardle gets this job...it's a joke...at this stage in game MU should get a much more accomplished coach than Wardle.

Saul Phillips at NDSU is a Wisconsin guy, very likable, gotten great results at NDSU.  He better get an interview.  Howland - yes.  Shaka - absolutely.  Amaker - yes....

MU needs to move quickly and get things stabilized with existing players, and incoming recruits.  Have to retain core talent - Burton, Mayo, Dawson, JJJ, Fischer, Duane - and Ahmed Hill (likely will be gone with Buzz...what comes of Cohen/Pierce?)

In some ways, Buzz leaving may be a blessing and actually help to retain JJJ, Dawson, Burton..
