College basketball coaching carousel 2018

Fox to Colorado State makes sense.

 

Dan Hurley will try to fix the basketball mess at U-Conn.

 

Good for both sides.

 

We only thought that the next HC at Pitt was going to have it bad. Insult to injury.

 

Wonder who leaked that info and why. It doesn't make Stallings look good, but it sort of makes the firing look like a bad idea and it complicates the ability to hire a replacement.

 

It’s been assumed his one assistant, who has been acting like a jilted lover since the firing, is leaking information.

 

David Padgett out at Louisville. Big surprise.

Dana Ford in at Missouri State.

 

To be fair, if the entire roster -- which would have had seven sophomores on it -- was going to be returning and didn't up and leave, this wouldn't have been a problem.

 

Illinois fans wanted the same thing.

That's worked out really well.

 

Wish he would have stayed at URI, but good hire—Hurley has has success everywhere he’s coached. (Although might still be second in the family coaching rankings to his father, who, to his credit, stuck with his tiny Catholic high school in Jersey City until it was shutdown.)

 

If Weber keeps winning, maybe it gets him a better gig. KState is kind of renowned for not holding on to coaches.

 

Really excited for alma mater to go back to mediocrity.
