There sure are a lot of people with "sources." Yet, very little information is ever given. Not picking on you, just saying.
I'll take some benjamins! Do tell!
I see what you did there. And I pray you're right.
Personally, I just hope it is a smart decision.....
I wish I had some sources... My wall doesn't talk back to me. :-\

So the Benjamins are having their baby! And Mrs. Benjamin is in labor right now, so we'll hear whether it's a boy or a girl tomorrow. I'm waiting with bated breath. ;)
It will be Shaka or Ben....no question about it in my mind. My sense is it will be Shaka as this is being done quickly, quietly and with lots of involvement from a guy like Doc Rivers behind the scenes. If it was imminent with Ben Howland...the national press would be all over it already beyond "MU reached out to Ben Howland."

Seems like MU isn't the dead end job that Buzz...errr...Goodman seemed to say it was
My source says Marquette is trying to bite of more than it can CHEW.
Any other good puns that I am missing.
Marquette will rise like the PHOENIX
I feel a sense of optimism, similar to when Crean left. This is actually exciting.
I can confirm it's Shaka, but the announcement won't be made tomorrow. He needs til' Wednesday to notify recruits. C'est la vie.
It sounds like Marquette was willing to marshall its resources to get this thing done.

I don't buy that it's Shaka. I'd like that higher, but I think Shaka is waiting for a blue blood and is smart enough to know that he can maintain his desirability, stay at VCU and hang out until one of the big guys come calling.
There is no upside for him to come to MU, it won't build his profile any higher.
I think it ends up being Howland, which is just fine.

That was funny. I am running my post number higher today as well.
The options are better now because there aren't any other top tier jobs open AND there's an available bonafides in Howland out there.
I'd rather have Howland personally. He's not a retread coach. Has the titles and wins and probably a chip.
That being said, if It's between him and Shaka, I'm not gonna lose too much sleep.

1. Said Larry Williams reached out to Shaka.
2. I went to the VCU board and "VCUInsider" is a running meme that they have. Someone takes the name and signs into boards of schools rumored to pick off Shaka.

1. Can stay in the bathroom reading or playing on an Ipad for a long time
2. At least 30 minutes away from wife

I think we need to keep going til we reach the Krystkowiak pun.
If I had a Kryskowiak Ball I could tell you when that would be.

Think I'll see if I can figure out how this ignore button works. Only took 1 post. Well done.

Sounds like some type of holiday "delicacy" from some east European butcher almost guaranteed to give you the Shyatt(s).

I've heard it'll be Wojo from the Duke staff.
I think this will be a great hire. Thoughts?
Yes, that is a terrible pun.
Our next coach would say Donovan't do that. It's rather pitinoful.
Its Vitale we make the right choice. so let take our time

It'll be a long week if we don't Marshall in a new coach soon.
God Dermott! Everyone Cooley your jets before this gets out of control and groce!
After this new hire, MU will be Lavin like kings!
I here the new coach is on a Beilein straight to Milwaukee as we speak.

Whoa last I heard Sprewell already has a stable job as a Milwaukee county garbage man so I'm not entirely sure he'd be available

Knowing Mike Rice, I would actually think a 30 minute session with the two might be a good thing.
God McDermott, will you just stop all this speculation!

Thread of the Year !!!
I don't mean to be a dick, but I'd be willing to bennett that the next coach is going to be great.
To keep up the recruiting profile we need a Fisher of men
Enough!! Willard you guys just quit with the puns already?!?
I'm so tired of this. If you all don't stop, iba going to give up abasketball for Adolph.
I just wish I knew what Cords and Strong were Rupp to.
Zimmer down everybody, we'll know soon enough.

Am I misreading this or is "VCU Insider" (new tonight claiming he is close to their program) saying it will be Shaka?
His tag says he is a VCU Insider, but says Shaka has to wait to Wednesday to tell recruits. How does he know, when the recruits do not? If he does, it is people like him leaking news ahead of time that makes recruits/players not get notified properly. Crean took a lot of heat, but I doubt it was Crean who leaked it to ESPN. It probably was a so called insider that could not keep his mouth shut. This guy is either trying to put one over us or he is breaking a confidence. Either way he is a jerk.
If they can't decide between Howland and Smart, maybe they should just have them dukiet out to see who gets the job.
So, is there still planning on being an announcement today?

Yes. This announcement today has seemingly been expected since late last week. I don't expect to hear who our new coach will be today, though.
I don't have any insider information. Just a from reading rumors for the past 48+ hours.

Is it too Hurley to take a Tinkle (Montana Grizzlies...look it up) ?
A Knight in shining armor is going to come in and save the program today. I can feel it!
Might have to Skip all the way to the Presser.

Jesus...a new Pres AND coach? Time to head to O'Neal's Irish Pub to celebrate!
Are we on a Freeway that will end with a new coach?
(why not???)
The main question about our head coach will be getting him here. How, though? By Land? Or by air?

Kind of a dueling piano scene? Or the best version of "piano man" gets the job.
Whats all the Buzz surrounding our new coach?
Time is wa(i)ning, MU really must make the wright decision.

Pay the Bill no matter how high, even if it's through the Rafters.
Had a really weird dream last night that Sean Miller was announced as the new coach of MU. Granted thats not going to happen but it may be a problem that im dreaming about MUs coaching situation...
Was it ever revealed yesterday who the "big name coach from the power conference" that contacted MU and was interested in the HC position?

I have been told that the mystery big name coach is from a school that is the crean of the crop in its conference.
I know he's more of a rapper than basketball coach, but hear me out on this one guys: Silkk the Shaka. I think it could work!
This is a Crum-y thread.

I don't get it, are you suggesting we hire a one-armed pitcher with no CBB experience? Can't blame me if I Drew the wrong conclusion with a post that vague.

Archie Miller with an extension at Dayton. Didn't appear much of a candidate anyway, but we can scratch him from the list.

Any word?

It was signed in February and only announced now. Much has changed for UD since February.

No. He signed extension a week or two before he left, and before UCLA was even open, iirc.

Actually, I believe he
agreed to an extension. But, no signature before moving on to UCLA.
