Interesting read if you think Illinois is likely to be looking for a coach in the future.

We were included in there already so I think we know about the conclusion reached.

Did you realize that 40 Power-5 jobs have opened in the past five years, and exactly two of them -- UCLA and Texas -- have been filled by established and successful coaches with decent jobs who weren't running from something.

That's a very loose use of the word "decent". VCU and New Mexico are decent, so I guess Wichita State is too, is Dayton "decent"? Was Texas Tech not "decent" for Tubby? Was UNLV not "decent" for Chris Beard? Apparently Texas Tech was "decent" enough for him. Was Jamie Dixon "running from something" btw?

There are a lot of jobs and not a lot of A+ resumes, is probably a better way to put it. It's a seller's market.

I'm imagining Deon making it his personal mission to contact anybody Auburn recruits and tell them what a terrible person Bruce Pearl is. Of course, coaching would get in the way of this as he would have to follow the rules, so this clearly frees him up to do so. :D

Larry Brown is scum. They are probably about to be slapped with some pretty significant sanctions and he jumped ship.

Apparently its over a contract issue. He wanted a 5 year deal and they wouldn't give him one that long.

I saw someone post a comment on the story that he was more likely to be dead than still coaching in 5 years :D

Not sure where else to put this, but does this qualify as going from the frying pan to the fire or the fire to the frying pan?
