An early jump on the 2019 Carousel ... Fran Dumphy retiring after one more year at Temple, will be replaced by Aaron McKie.

http://www.philly.com/philly/sports/colleges/temple/temple-owls-basketball-fran-dunphy-resign-aaron-mckie-20180330.html

Has making a former player the HC officially become a trend?

Seems to be picking up steam. Ol Roy at UNC, Huggie at WVU, Cronin at UC all have been there a while and are doing very well. Mulllin at SJU, Grant at UD, Dixon at TCU, Ewing at GT, Jordan at Butler are works in progress with varying degrees of success and promise. Mack at X succeeded then moved on. Ollie at UConn didn't make the cut. Now McKie...

MU gave it a shot with Rick (although he didn't play varsity)...and he might've stuck if it wasn't for the Bucks. How long before we hire someone like Diener, Novak, etc?

Or Wardle, more likely. Doing really good work at Bradley and by the time MU makes it's next coaching hire, the UWGB kerfuffle will be mostly forgotten.

They hire Wardle(loved him as a player), and that's when I pull my support..nothing would say small time more than hiring someone like him.

Unless Wardle seriously steps up his game at Bradley that is a hard pass...I'd be more willing to ask Buzz back

Wardle has done good work at Bradley so far.  From 5 wins in year one to 20 in year 3.

Wardle is doing well. He's never seen his Pomeroy ranking decline at either GB or Bradley and returns virtually everyone. I don't think he's there yet, but in 2-4 years he could be high major ready.

The only “notable” openings now are Rhode Island, LaSalle and Fresno State.  Not much for a MidWestern guy.

Small time would be pulling support for such a dumb reason.

Its actually 8 years and he has done quite well in turning around moribund programs at Green Bay in the Horizon League and Bradley in the MVC.

I wonder if vuguru said this when Nova hired Jay Wright from Hofstra.

MU has hired guys from Siena, St. Peter and the University of New Orleans, but the guy from Bradley would be small time?
Huh.

When Wardle's name came up after Buzz left, I was deadset against it. But what he's done at Bradley shows he's got serious potential as a head coach. It may not be at MU, but I believe he'll be running a major program within five years.

Imagine hiring a guy from a DII school who in his last two years went 7-21 and 6-18 to become MU's head coach. 

Al McGuire fits the description.  Think about it for a second.  Nothing screams bigger small time hire than taking a DII coach with back to back very bad W-L records.
