OT: 2021 Coaching Carousel

[Uncle Rico]

Otzelberger is your new Cyclones head coach.

News coming from Las Vegas on this.   No one else reporting it yet but it makes a lot of sense based on what the ISU AD said Monday.

I thought the CIT was postponed this year, but the CBI was still on. If those are the standards for what now qualifies as a successful MU season, may as well participate. No need to take the moral high ground if you are not willing to make a coaching change. What's becoming a CBI-level program may as well participate in the CBI.

Am a Nojo but the school turned down my offer to pay half the CBI entry fees. Will pay for JWags85 real name.

Maybe Iowa State moved quick thinking another job that might appeal to TJO could be opening 🤔

HoopDirt reporting it too.

I have believed for awhile Tom Crean would be the perfect guy to bring DePaul back.

They can have him.
Don't get the TJO love, other than his local ties. He inherited a good situation - and Mike Daum - at SDSU and had things trending in the wrong direction at UNLV  (though, to be fair, had a nice recruiting class coming in).
If Wojo were ousted, he would be fairly far down my list of candidates.

DePaul interviewed Damon Stoudamire this morning.

70-76 at Pacific, including 33-47 in the WCC.
DePaul doing DePaul things.

He did inherit a program on probation with scholarship reductions, and that had just jumped from the Big West to WCC.  People are enamored by hit Memphis ties. He's better than I would expect DePaul to do as I have such a low bar for them.

Gates is their #1 choice right now.

So he struggled because he inherited a struggling program at a difficult time...as opposed to what he'd be doing at DePaul?

They'd be better off going the Kenny Payne route

DePaul is a better situation. Pacific lost six scholarships due to the sanctions and reductions in recruiting.

They only had seven scholarships in his first year at Pacific because of self reductions and NCAA penalties.  After four years, he had them at 23-10 and was the WCC coach of the year.

Honestly I think he needs another step before DePaul, but it isn't completely out of nowhere to interview him.

Did Pacific take the heat for Kansas or North Carolina with those reductions?

[dad's couch]

The noise surrounding Stoudemire is he's Arizona's next coach whether it will be this year or next year when Miller's contract expires.

There was a lot more than that that he needed to clean up as well. He has done a great job and has the right varied experience.

As you and I agree, we are both Todd Golden fans but Damon is more ready for the jump up.

So...Wojo want to try out the Tampa / St. Pete area?

Lets hope UNLV reaches out to Wojo.

Lets hope UNLV reaches out to Wojo.

And hope they didn't read Cracked Sidewalks this morning.

Multiple good candidates in mix for UNLV

Lavin and Pitino Sr both want the job
