OU now thinks its Weber
« on: March 30, 2011, 11:46:33 PM »
From their boards:

"Source close to the OU program tells me tonight Bruce Weber will be named the next OU head coach as early as Friday..."

Nobody there seems very enthusiastic about it, kind of a "best we can do" attitude.

Interesting.  I think Illinois is the better job. 

Weber got hurt badly by Sampson stealing Eric Gordon away from him (at least that is how some view it) and Jon Scheyer not picking Illinois.  He almost won a title with Self's players and is two near miss recruits from sustained success.  Now, Weber has an incredible class coming in and he wants to go to OU?  Who knows what to think of the rumors over on that board.

Not sure how he is a good fit down at OU either.

Believe it or not, this makes a lot of sense for both parties.

OU needs a proven name that's won in a major conference.

And Weber is staring down a new AD and University President in Champaign plus is getting a ton of heat from Illini fans from consistent underperformance over the last several years.  

It could work for both parties; $64,000 question is, would Jerrance Howard get the Illinois job right away or follow Weber to Oklahoma?  If he goes to Oklahoma with Weber, it could be a smash hire.

Weber is a Milw Marshall HS, '74 and UWM grad.

Clearly, OU now requires a Milwaukee connection for all its top coaching candidates--lol.

Wonder if Illinois would entertain another Crean interview? Maybe he'd tone it down and polish his interviewing skills this time.

Once again OU's media is over hyping the story again. Multiple reports are saying Weber is staying at Illinois.

OU seems to think they can get whoever they want, however, all of their choices are putting up a big NOT INTERESTED sign.

If I am Bruce Weber I stay at U of I.

Personally, aside from KU and Texas, I don't find any of the B12 schools to be interesting, and they'd have to pay me a lot more to be at any of them over any other BCS conference school.

I hear that Roy Williams isn't happy at UNC and wants back in the Big 12, OU is his most likely destination. Oh, and Tokoto to Marquette. ;D

No way I see Weber leaving UI.

Sounds like an MU coach search.  They should quickly hire an assistant so that they can make the Sweet 16 in 3 years.

He is, that's why the media is fishing.  Castiglione is anything but clueless.

Fishing?  Doesn't appear that way, although I'm sure OU pr will declare whoever they hire as their "top choice" all along.  OU is swinging and missing regardless of the genius Castiglione may or may not be, and it's making him look bad.
