2026 Coaching Carousel

True, true, but who cares? I have a ton of relatives and friends that are BC people, but the
Eagles have been totally insignificant since they took the $$$ for the ACC jump. They got what they deserved.

And that $$$ is shrinking in the new ACC revenue sharing agreement.

Oregon State is lucky that Justin Joyner is married to the Oregon Women's Soccer Head Coach.

Would be surpassed when Devendorf gets to the HC level.

I'd probably be more perturbed playing against a McNamara team than any of the current BEast coaches. eff that guy

Would they allow his double-wide on campus?

Never guaranteed, but that's a good hire.

That's a good hire for K-State. Big loss for Belmont. Tough day for Belmont people. Casey spent 27 years at Belmont as a player, assistant coach and Head coach. And he spent 31 of the last 33 years in Nashville.

It's a sign of how challenging he thinks that job has become at this time.

He lost some studs that he recruited and developed to the portal. (Richard, Gillespie, Tyson, etc..) with more on the way. That takes a toll.

No coach has ever left after signing a contract extension...

But congrats!  If his career goals are to be ranked because they win a bunch of games against bad teams, go 30-4 or whatever, and get a 9 seed, good for him!

Or maybe SLU threw a bunch of money at him, likes it there, and realizes that he is only 50 years old and will likely have plenty of opportunities to move if he stays successful.

Remember it took Shaka awhile before he left VCU as well.

Correct, he will wait until a job that makes sense opens up.  The best jobs to open up so far are Providence, K State, and ASU.

Syracuse is the best job that has opened up.

Two years ago, after committing to SLU, Louisville wanted him but he stuck with his commitment. I doubt he is leaving this time after signing an extension.

You're probably right.  I thought some better jobs would open up.  They still could due to some retirements, but it looks like bigger jobs will remain filled this offseason.

You said several times that he was leaving this year, this cycle. You were wrong.

They have top tier Big East resources, and they would have the 2nd largest endowment in the Big East if they were in it.

You also said they will always be a 9 seed with 30 wins etc....without considering they can keep elevating after just 2 seasons. Majerus knew he could win big there under more challenging circumstances than Schertz. He built NCAA teams that had seeds of 9, 4, and 5. If not for health problems he would have kept that going.  There's no reason to believe Schertz can't do that too. Gonzaga and St. Mary's etc did similar.

You also said he could go elsewhere, be 10-8 in conference play and receive a 5 seed. That has only happened a limited number of times ever, and, that is not happening this year.

Lots of rumors Kansas is going to open but the rumors I've seen are they'll go after Todd Golden

That would be right on brand for KU. Klassy University.

It's also about the right fit, not just taking a bigger job with a bigger salary. Shaka to Texas wasn't a good fit, Moser to Oklahoma, Lickliter to Iowa, Capel to Oklahoma (going back a number of years), Grant to BC, and English to PC are some examples off the top of my head. When Tennessee comes open or a Big Ten job, I can see him jumping to that one, but why not get a big payday at SLU and continue to increase his asking price for when he does leave?

It's still pretty early in this cycle SLUser

Congrats in advance in SLU winning the national title, shoothoops.

The only way your favorite school could do better than Schertz would be if they hired Yadi.

UNC Greensboro is open and available for Wes Miller.

Jerrod Calhoun is the obvious name for UC if they can get that done.

Did I miss something?  Did the MO Senator's letter to the Big East work?  When did SLU join the Big East?

I know this will break your heart, but SLU will not be going to 27 straight NCAA Tournaments, 9 straight Sweet 16s, 5 Elite 8s in a 8 year (not including the COVID season) span, or 2 national title games in a 4 year span.  But if you want to believe, keep believing!  I remember sitting in a bar between the MU vs. Davidson and MU vs. Butler games in Lexington and hearing Butler fans talking about how they were the next Duke and Brad Stevens was never leaving them, he'll be their Coach K.  At least it paid off in a Big East invite for Butler, but yeah, that was never happening and SLU will never be Gonzaga.

Also, not sure if you've been paying attention, but college basketball is a little different than it was in 2012.  And Rick Majerus only coached one SLU team to the NCAA Tournament.
