The only "Major Major Major" (as they phrased it) change in the Big East would be Jay Wright leaving.  Willard and McDermott would be in the "big deal" category as I don't know how much better those programs could do.  UCONN would be a big deal if Hurley left, but they'll find somebody good if he leaves.  Otherwise?  I think every other program could in theory get an upgrade from any move.

They're either completely overstating the move or Jay Wright is leaving Nova, which I can't imagine giving he passed up the 76ers job just a few months ago.

@CoachingChanges is alluding to a major Big East coaching change that is on the way (and they specifically say, "and its not the loser you are thinking of at this point (Not Wojo,......yet)".  Again, the account is run by a number of D1 assistant coaches and/or former head coaches. 

Some of the other accounts are referencing Cooley might be on the move.  Would he take Boston College (he was a former assistant coach there a number of years ago)?  Seems foolish since he turned down Michigan.  Did BC somehow find a trunk of cash to help turn around its basketball program (in an era where so many schools are struggling financially and with enrollments)?  Would Providence then look to grab Richard Pitino (alum) in his place? 

Regardless, I anticipate a LOT of movement in the next four weeks, whether or not Marquette is involved or not.  Last year gave many coaches an extra year, and many other programs are using this transition year to make moves.  Will be fun to follow.

The huge unknown with some of these schools are the new ADs. BC's came from Temple via Loyola. Those are basketball schools even though Temple has a D1 football team. DP has a new AD. Is he looking to make an immediate impact by dropping a lot on a new coach or keep paying the Laieto range whether he is there or not.

SEC had an AD meeting a few years ago in which Tranghese addressed them and said they are leaving money on the table by not investing in basketball. That led to hires such as Pearl and Howland. Look at the salaries in that league. They have invested heavily since. PAC 12 have been notoriously cheap. Does that change?

Are we really not going to acknowledge that a complete unbiased 3rd party just call Wojo a Loser? haha

Well, we all know it's true.  Why would we object to the truth?

Has to be McDermott.  He’s about to get cancelled.  His own assistant coach is speaking out against him.  Whoa.

Has to be McDermott.  He’s about to be held accountable for his words.  His own assistant coach is speaking out against him.  Whoa.

There you go buddy, fixed that for you.

My God what an absolute horrible analogy for McDermott to use. Brainless to say the least.
