Yeah, did a fair bit of reading about WVU last night and Calhoun was literally the only name coming up. Apparently was an Asst under Huggins for several years. Gotta confess, feel pretty bad, not too bad, about the WVU situation and I’m gonna be rooting pretty good next year. 

B12 media deal is better than the ACC media deal. That, and the ACC is 3-4 years from being done if not sooner.

Actually, if he/they want both, Woodson and Buckner could have several job opportunities that would pay well surrounding their resumes….. Something many individuals don’t have.

He is talking about Sean Miller taking a **** on his assistant, Book Richardson, and his assistant spending time in jail for him and Miller not helping him out afterwards.

How many as a head college basketball coach?

(Not like the IU job) but probably more than one would rationally or irrationally think in given lower level (lack of better way to refer to it) circumstances and situations.  Parallels to how do people win a political office or end up in a lot of different jobs

So it would be a major, major step down in salary right? I mean I can get fired from my job and get another low paying job in a related field too, but it would suck and is not my choice. What they couldn't do is get another peer level job in the same field after failing. Their choices are severely diminished.

But 4 years...oh, right, that's just IU.

Exactly.  The trend was bad, but still.  

I actually deleted the post because I know a “well actually” post was coming about how he deserved to be fired and I realized I didn’t want to argue about it.

He definitely was on a downward trend and did nothing to deserve being retained.

Yup, he was Texas’ Mike Davis. He had no chance to keep that job. 
Put it on my tombstone: Never hire a guy under unusual circumstances that you wouldn’t hire under normal one’s.

Coaching Changes indicating that the Villanova board met to see where everyone was at in terms of a new coach and their leading target is Kevin Willard (Maryland).  Wouldn't seem like an easy get BUT apparently Maryland's AD is about to move on to the SMU job which could handicap Maryland in keeping Willard.
