2017 College Basketball Coaching Carousel (Matta out at Ohio State)

[JuiceCrewAllStar]

This. All of those schools you mentioned are closer to Chicago than Illinois is. And Northwestern is showing signs of life with Collins, and DePaul is getting a shiny new downtown arena (not that I expect them to be good any time soon, but it's a better recruiting tool than playing out by O'Hare).

Plus Springfield is in the middle of NOWHERE.

Well, UofI is Champaign-Urbana, not Springfield.

And the problem isn't that UofI isn't cleaning up in Chicago. It's that they're getting absolutely zero from Chicago. Not even making lists for recruits.

Keatts is a great hire

This is not good!

No there won't, at least not if NCSU moves quickly. Illinois and Indiana aren't after him except as a back-up to the back-up. LSU is a worse job.

Moton is not qualified. He would be well-advised to push for the UNCW job.

Pos rep. Thought Keatts/State might want to test the market a bit more. Huge get for State.

Keatts is a stud and a star in the making. Great hire by them. Let's hope he sticks it to Duke and UNC more than us. Conference just got even better.

 

[Say Hey Deac]

Was Keatts at Louisville when they were entertaining recruits with strippers?

 

[buckets]

Yes

He's 44. That's too old. They need to hire an up and comer who will be there for 40 years and win 1000 games.

true, real story is we dodged the wes miller bullet.

 

[DeaconSig]

Weren't we assured that Pat Kelsay was going there and kill us for years?

Keatts is sharp. Manning is dull.

Yeah, it's not like they hired Wes for God's sakes

This post is dull.

This post is dull.

Whatever. You have to admit that Manning isn't the sharpest knife in the drawer.

I don't know. I haven't given him an IQ test. Have you?
