Coaching Changes

Wimp Sanderson did wear the Lindsey Nelson-like sports coats, just like that daggum Roy Williams, you're flippin' right he does.
 
Per Rothstein
Indiana's Archie Miller will hire Bruiser Flint as an assistant, per a source. Former head coach at both UMass and Drexel. #iubb
 
BAMA I'm classes of '75 and '78, wife '75 and '77, I have a good friend who went to Dayton undergrad and Hofstra Law, he didn't get into SJU Law, but happy he didn't, he's doing very well thank you very much.....this guys eats, breaths and dies Dayton Flyer BB.

You root for Alabama, mostly football, some BB because.....?

bamafan, just curious, connection to SJU?

Per Rothstein
BREAKING: Dayton will hire Anthony Grant as its next head basketball coach, per a source. Former head coach at both Alabama and VCU.

Good hire

Wasn't he lightning hot just a few years ago?

No. He was let go by Alabama two years ago after six seasons.

He was lightning hot at VCU
Grant parlayed his success at VCU nto the 'Bama job that didn't go quite as well
Interesting to note that Grant is going "home" - he played at Dayton from 1983-87

True but that was 8-9 years ago after 6 years at Bama and 2 as Billy Donavan's assistant in OKC. He followed Jeff Capel who got VCU started for 3 seasons before Grant took over when Capel left for Oklahoma and stayed 3 years at VCU. In six seasons at Bama went to one NCAA and 3 NITs. Fan base wanted him gone sooner and were happy when he left. While I follow and root for Bama to do well in hoops (not nearly as big a hoop as football fan), I have a greater rooting interest in the Dayton Flyers as my Law School Alma mater. Just hope he can at least come close to doing as good a job as Archie Miller was doing before leaving for Indiana.

St. John's grad class of '76. Have no fear they are by far and away my number one college hoop team. Season ticket holder since freshman year '72-'73 straight thru until last few years of Norm and since about half the time season tics or attend at least 5-10 games per year. Discuss them 365 days a year. My EDIT is UD Law '81 cause bastards at SJU wouldn't accept me! ;) :)

In light of Rasheen Davis perhaps headed to Matt McCall's staff at UMass, one would hope that Jared Grasso is the guy for the LIU Blackbirds.
 
Per Borzello
Brian Dutcher was named head coach in waiting at San Diego State in 2011. He'll replace Steve Fisher.

Perfect example of why we should start cheating. When you are really good at being sneaky, you can build up a crappy basketball program into a legit dark horse national championship contender for at least a couple of the 18 seasons you are at a school.
 
Joe Pasternak (Arizona asst) is leaving Tucson for the head coaching job at UC Santa Barbara. Lorenzo Romar was in town last week, talking about the new assistant vacancy.

Romar talking to the Wildcats? That is an embarrassment of recruiting riches.

Exactly what I was thinking. You have a school that has had a top 7 class every year since 2011 and you add a guy who somehow got 3 one and done first round picks to U Washington in 2 years. SMH

Former Seton Hall head coach Louis Orr is expected to be a part of Patrick Ewing's staff at Georgetown, per multiple sources.

Helps with having experienced guy next to him, but not sure Orr resonates with kids these days. Need to get a recruiter in there.

Which I am sure he will as he has emphasized recruiting in all his interviews. Getting an experienced AC next to him is something our guy hasn't done heading into year 3. (Slice more known for recruiting, was a loser head coach while Orr took the Hall to if I remember correctly 2 NCAAs in 5 seasons).
 
Per Goodman, good for Davis!
New UMass coach Matt McCall has brought Peter Gash with him from Chattanooga and hired Rasheen Davis on his staff, sources told ESPN.
 
He should just settle in and make the best of it, because it'll be hard to claw his way back up from there.

Ohio State has parted ways with head coach Thad Matta, per release.

The question now is, why so late in the game?

EDIT: Conflicting reports. Gary Parrish saying he is retiring. Either way, it's effective immediatly.
