Harper....The next UNLV head basketball coach

There are not going to be many coaches available who have been to a final four without a multi -million $$ buyout. If he wants to coach - he'll coach.
I think he will too I just don't think it will be at a big conference school unless it is lower tier like Cal or the like.
 
IMO, he's be tough to get. If his name gets out, there are at least 10 programs with more resources that would give him a sniff and then one may bite.
I can't disagree. But if you would have told me DM would replace BO I would have felt the same on DM. Crean, Turgeon or Marshall in no particular order would be my priority if I were Harper. Also, all three have made big money in their coaching career. Although I like Wade's I feel his buy out is a potential problem.

Wade is at McNeese St correct, what is the buyout?
 
We will hear the keep CKK argument because some will say so many players will be back next year. We lose a bunch of seniors this year, Hill, Bedford, Swishrain among the rotation guys. I cannot see DJ or Whaley coming back. So out of the rotation guys, Henley, Bear, Pape, and Hill back at best. With Hill so bad of a shooter I could see him out of the rotation next year. We have redshirt Evans and some freshman coming in.

I view the potential returnees and newcomers not enough to move the needle a ton so the guys left are not a huge reason to keep CKK, but you will hear this argument come up now that CKK has had a mini good run from a depleted roster without what would be expected to be his best 2 players.
 
Ole Miss and Beard had a big win over tenn last night. Crazy we had 3 might end up to be hall of fame coaches either here or lined up to be here in Cronin, Beard, and TJ. And we showed zero for all 3.
