You have to remember that McCarty has worked under Brad Stevens for the last 4 or 5 years. Calbert is a former assistant, former DOBO and been out of the game for two years.

Got a text at lunch saying this was going to happen. I don't think Calbert really wanted it but I think some of the people around him wanted him to take it.

I think someone said Bob Huggins was there too

Also visited on the first day of the fall evaluations.

Yes he does. I think Mack to Louisville is a done deal unless he decides he doesn't want it. I think they were going to wait till after the final four but since Xavier got upset it has moved things up.

Thank you. That is good news

No I have not. I have only heard of two people being assistants if CC is hired.

Great question. I would think Steele would have a chance at the Xavier job if Mack leaves. I think most believe he is the favorite for the job now but not sure he will take it if offered.

Wonder how much money the IHSAA lost out on by NA not being in the state finals.

Walter McCarty is up today with David Ragland next and Travis Steele getting the last one.

I'm going to say the same thing until I hear it from Romeo himself. Everyone still has a shot IMO.

Holtman didn't want to be in a pressure cooker. OSU is a nice fit for him.

If it all works out I think you will like who he brings in as assistants too.

He tweeted that Saturday morning. So it's been a few days.

I can promise that it's 100% true.

I don't know the if the numbers quoted are correct or not but I do know he wants the pot to be bigger so he can hire the people he wants as Assistants.

Calbert is in Evannsvile today per Pat Hickey and others Calbert Cheaney is in town today to formally interview for the Evansville head coaching job. He is one of at least three (possibly four) candidates who will be in this week to meet with AD Mark Spencer.

Crean had never contacted the Watfords about Trendon when he was still at IU. They were kind of upset about that so no I don't think this changes anything.

The salary demands that were being reported are false said Pat Hickey the Evansville writer. I will say that CC has made some calls to potential people he would want on his staff if he would happen to take the job.

I don't think Greg is or has ever been an IU fan. He is more of a small school or Butler guy. You will never hear him say a bad word about Butler. He is someone who has worked hard and kiss the right behinds to work his way up at 1070. I'm not a fan of his the times I have been around him which is only a handful.

He doesn't want to go to Vandy because Darius still uses a night light.

I can say that I have heard this as well and I was not in chat last night. I heard it through the university side more than from any recruits.

Is he the only Adidas guy on there or are there others?

Yes there is interest but no offer. I think Tisdale would get an offer before Bandoo but that's just my opinion mixed with some other talk I have been told. But that was before we had seen Bandoo too.

I've been told that all of the talk that Green wants to leave is overblown.
