Lets hope Indiana holds out for Alford, gets burned, and then has to hire a fallback.
Who does T Boone want at Okie St?
I throw some money at Bryce Drew -- hes a perfect fit for that conference. Coaching at Vandy is like coaching at NU - just a matter of time until you leave for a place you can win a conference title and make the tourney every year.

Do you get the feeling that Chris Collins plans on leaving NW?
Sure. Immediately after Krzyzewski retires from Duke.
On what planet is that even possible?
Sure. Immediately after Krzyzewski retires from Duke.
So, assistant thoughts? NG has reported Walker has one of the 3 spots. Here's Underwood's OSU staff:
Michael Boyton- With Underwood the last 5 years dating back to South Carolina. Imagine he's very likely to be at Illinois.
Lamont Evans- With Underwood 1 year at OSU and also a fellow assistant coach at KSU and South Carolina. Seems like an ace recruiter. I'd say he's likely to stay but doesn't have Illinois ties.
Danny Henderson- With Underwood 1 year at OSU. Seems very tied into the Texas High school scene. Won 4 Texas state championships and was national HS coach of the year. That's big for OSU, but not strategic here. Probably the odd man out? Probably a good hire for whoever the next OSU coach is.
Anyone know if Groce is on the market for a HC position? Based on his experience here I'd think he would be more suited as a highly paid assistant. He seems to have the soft skills, but lack the leadership qualities to drive a team.

This is what I'm curious about. Who does OSU go after now? Bryce Drew would be fitting. Cowboys fans wouldn't have a whole lot of credibility to be able to stay mad at Underwood for leaving after only one year.
I figure they'll talk to Gotlieb, but I'm not convinced he's a good fit.
