Among other things:

Mike Anderson to Tulsa

Anthony Grant is the front runner at Florida, may not take it

Ben Howland is expected to be fired

The account is pretty hot takey, so take it all with a grain of salt

I really don't have a good idea of what type of team A&M will have next year, but it's not a stretch that he finds himself on the hot seat.

Saw an article early in the year talking about how Buzz used the transfer portal to target younger guys in hopes of building for 2-3 years down the road as opposed to getting 1 year type guys.

If that is the case, you can make an argument that he is ahead of schedule.

Buzz is an excellent coach.  I would doubt he is on the hot seat at all.

[MUBurrow]

Too much pressure there for Brent to take that job

This.  Buzz wants to build not sustain.  He is a scrapper, but is always on the verge of being wronged in a way that makes him need to move on to the next place.  And sometimes he retaliates first, to steal a line from Fury Road.  I think he's the new Larry Brown.  He can be a heck of a coach, but he's a complete mercenary.  He will never be anywhere for long.

That account is a must follow this time of year.  Both for juicy info and for snark.  Love them dragging Frank Haith.

That being said, Anderson leaving and SJU getting Pitino would be incredibly entertaining for the BE but also horrible cause SJU fans don't need much to be insufferable

There are multiple anonymous coaches that utilize the account.  Some are VERY accurate; others just flat-out stir the pot and talk **** about other coaches. 

I've seen the Anderson-to-Tulsa rumors from a couple of different accounts.  There has to be some smoke to those rumors, which would be unfortunate.  However, Anderson has always been been in the Southern region (Tulsa, Arkansas, UAB and Missouri) and is a Tulsa alumnus.  In addition, Anderson was not the first, second or even third candidate for St. John's a few years ago (they offered Hurley, Moser and Cluess each before him, and it was rumored they even offered Scheyer too). 

St. John's is more intriguing today than it was when Mullin left.  If you add in NIL in the country's biggest sports market, that could be the most desired job on the market for the right coach.  They should go hard after Mike Boynton, a Brooklyn-native.

Is Mike Anderson out at St. John's? I know he's an alum, but that seems like a step down. He hasn't exactly been lighting the Big East on fire, but usually coaches get a full recruiting cycle before getting canned.

Anderson is not an sju alum. He really has no ties to the area which made the initial hire perplexing

[shoothoops]

This is your annual reminder that Coaching changes Twitter gets a lot of things incorrect.

[GoldenWarrior11]

Matt Norlander says Anderson is no longer a candidate for Tulsa, given his $2.5 million buyout that Tulsa cannot afford.  The interest was not mutual.

He's not out. They are saying he is looking based on conjecture.

It'd be interesting to see Slick Rick or Hurley there if StJ does open up.

Like a lot of people, I followed @CoachingChanges when Wojo got canned and we were in the market: by far the most absurd account tied to college hoops.  Can count on one hand the amount of positive things they've said about all of college coaching.

Just yesterday, they tweeted (then deleted) former GWU HC Jamion Christian had sex with the the DOBO at GWU and he's gonna end up on Marquette's staff with Shaka.

Lol I misread original post.

That's why it's a hoot

So you're saying they're really no different than the majority of sports media when it comes to coaching hiring and firing?

[shoothoops]

There may be some readers here that may be unfamiliar with that account and it's history. So I was just pointing that out.

And, as one postames suggests above, in a world of negative nancies, perhaps be a positive paul.

But wait a Twitter account named "Coaching Changes" told me Anderson to Tulsa was a done deal. .....actual word on the street is that Tulsa wasn't interested in hiring Anderson at this time.

Nice touch that their Twitter account doesn't allow replies to their tweets.

Just start an MUScoop account on Twitter. Don't allow replies to be held accountable. Say mean spirited negative gossip constantly about people. Tweet random incorrect coaching things but do it with conviction.

So basically, Just move MUScoop board to Twitter. (just kidding of course)

Wait.  Twitter has negative gossip, incorrect information, and people do it with conviction?!  No way!
