Title: New Marquette president says finding a basketball coach is a priority

"Of interest is the fact that Lovell has three degrees from the University of Pittsburgh and was the associate dean of research at Pitt while Ben Howland coached the Panthers. Howland, who last coached at UCLA, is a candidate for the job. He has talked with Marquette about the position and is waiting to hear back from the school."

Hmm...

Howland is waiting to hear back from Marquette? Time to roll out the red carpet for Shaka.

I would be more than fine with a BH hiring

Nothing new here!!!  Just because he was @ Pitt when Howland was there, means nothing.  Mere coincidence.  Talk about a slow news day!  Everyone is looking for something to happen.

"Waiting to hear back"?  Gimme Ben's number and I'll give him a call.

Hire Howland now!

Bring him in.  I'm getting tired sitting for so long on the Howland bus; I want it to take off already.  I don't wanna gamble this away

You're probably right.  However, it only helps our chances in the battle against Wake to get him (though they seem really focused on taking Chris Mack).  I guarantee that Lovell and Howland know each other.  They may not have each other on speed dial, but I bet they know each other on a first-name basis.  And that can only help.

The Ron Paul memes are killing me. Personally, Shaka is my first choice. But Ben Howland would be one hell of a consolation prize.

Wake is focused on Mack (Xavier) right now.  No real contender for Howland at the moment besides MU.

Not even a consolation prize. He's a 1B'er still worthy of millions of dollars.
