I mentioned doing this a week ago. Indystar had a pretty decent article with list. 

Some interesting names I haven't seen or considered.

Thanks for setting this up. Interesting data.

Surprised you didn't include DeVries on the "mid-major" line. He would be over Porter Moser for me.

He was on an earlier list I made, but I used the Indystar list and simply ran out of lines (system limitation to choices).

Yup, not a problem. Was going to do it last week, but didn't have a good feel of all the candidates. I think the Indystar did a pretty good job, even if some are not realistic IMO

Figured folks would love to see the trending on Q2. Q1 I knew would be pretty obvious, as almost everyone would love to have Stevens.

Can’t believe Stevens isn’t 100% on the first question???    Can’t believe someone picked Fife on question 1 either given the choices???

I'm betting someone has a Fife poster on their ceiling lol. 

In all seriousness, he'll soon get a chance somewhere soon. I think he was rumored to have turned down the Duquesne job a few years back (which I never understood). Learning from Izzo will get him another chance, just doubt his first gig is a big time program.

I'm sure the players would love the strippers and the hookers, but we'd be on probation within five years. 

Nah. Should read....
I’m sure the players and fans would love the W’s and B1G Championships, we’d win the NCAA CHAMPIONSHIP within 5 years or less!

And have it all wiped off books two years later. 

LC.... get over it.
2 things:

1. Jerry Tarkanian: "Nine out of 10 schools are cheating. The other one is in last place." Not much seems to have changed.

2. The FBI caught Sean Miller and the LSU head coach RED HANDED and not a damn thing happened to them. NOTHING. They are trying to CRUCIFY Dawkins though.

Watch “The Scheme” on HBO MAX if you haven’t already.
I’m a fan of that Dawkins kid.

Not sayin’ it’s right.... but..... what are you gonna do??

Whoo, get over your bizarre obsession with Pitino -- he's dirty as they day is long.

And TBH, I don't give a sh-t about what Tarkanian said.

I know u don’t give a crap. However, you are ignoring reality. It sucks. But... it is the reality. If the FBI doesn’t intervene on obvious transgressions.... what are you left with?
