    Gregg Marshall was certainly a prick to a lot of people, primarily those who annoyed him. If he respected you, though, different story.

    Just before the whole College of Charleston thing, I was doing a story on him and he calls me back and gives me his cell. "Don't worry about Sports information. They won't help you when you need to get ahold of me." So when he bolted to CofC and then turned around and went back to Winthrop, my job was significantly easier.

    Funny story: One year during a golf outing, I'm parking my cart to approach an early tee box when I'm slammed into from behind by another cart. I turn around, and it's Marshall and another coach in the league, just laughing hysterically. I pull out a handful of tees out of my pocket and wing them at him. Overall, maybe the best foursome golf outing I've probably ever had.

    According to Goodman at FoxSports.com, Softstra hired some donk named Mo. Hope they hire him a driver.

    Mo Cassara is one of the classiest people in college basketball.
    Does he have Division I head coaching experience? No.
    Is he a "name" hire? No.
    But if you ever interact with him, you will quickly find out he is all class --- which is why, even through all of this stuff with Welsh, he impressed the Hofstra people enough in a short time to trust him with the job.

    Woj is reporting today that Calipari looks to be leaving the Cats to coach LBJ wherever he ends up.

    So who gets the UK job?
