Who is it really?

Lefty, are Ron Springman from Texas, Steve Forbes from Tennesee or Mark Montgomery from Michigan State getting warmer? I’ll take any of those three and Izzo assistants in particular make pretty good head coaches. Hmmmm…

22

All I know is there are a couple of guys in the mix that have not been mentioned. This is the first time I have seen those second 2 names but I haven’t read every post.

23

I like the thought of Mark Montgomery. Izzo is a genius, and his coaching tree is strong.

I would put him above Kelsey honestly, but that is just me.

24

I hate waiting, but I want this done right. If we make a good hire, the time delay won’t matter at all.

25

That’s not true. If we wait until after the end of next season we’ll have gone a whole year without a coach.

26

If we don’t hear anything by next Friday, I’ll be worried. If nothing by next Sunday, I’ll be freaking out.

27

As they say in the mill: measure twice, cut once.

I’d much rather look hard for the right guy rather than jumping on the 1st guy.

not busting on Lefty here, but nobody knows the short list except 3 people and they aren’t going to say squat

I don’t even think Dale Halton knows the short list. I think the big boosters want certain interviews, but nobody knows the top 5 except Judy, Spease, CHP and CHP has yet to speak to any candidate.

Luckily there aren’t a ton of great jobs in front of us, so we can be pretty choosy it appears. I hope to hear something by Sun or Mon.

I’d expect the serach to be winding up this weekend/early next week. We may even know a name on Monday if we don’t already have a coach.

31

I am hoping the timing works out where Oregon still hasn’t made a hire. Any decision they make will alter the coaching landscape and potentially affect our applicant pool.

Oregon is aiming for the stars

Exactly. So lets say they hire Tubby Smith. That leaves an opening at Minnesota. Then lets say Minnesota hires another current coach, then the cycle continues and jobs that aren’t currently open become open an will impact our candidates.

Adam Zagoria mentions Dave Leitao as in the mix for “UNC-Charlotte”…

I didn’t say I know any names, because I don’t. I’m just saying there are 1 or 2 top candidates who have yet to be mentioned on here.

I heard that they were going to offer Izzo the bank to go there.

I wonder if Run just found the name of one of those 2.

As of Monday afternoon, Pat Kelsey has not been contacted by Charlotte. Will have blog a little later.

But we have spoken with Shyatt and Odom?

I’m starting to really hate your updates.
