Matt Graves, associate head coach at Indiana State, will be the next ISU head coach.

Former UC assistant Tony Stubblefield is returning to Oregon as an assistant, where he coached before taking the DePaul gig.

I would have liked him on Wes Miller's staff. We could use some of Dana Altman's modern basketball tactics.

Seems like there is some pro UK buzz for Scott Drew -- seems like we'd hear something today. Also thought I saw something about Grant McCasland (Texas Tech) being in play for Baylor if that job comes open.

Kentucky has also reportedly been turned down by Jay Wright

No way---hiring quick Rick shows everyone involved with UK has no class at all. Although, XU did the same thing
hiring Sean Miller-no class ever! JMHO

@JonRothstein -- Sources: BYU's Mark Pope is a candidate for the head coaching vacancy at Kentucky. Pope was a member of the 1996 national title team in Lexington

This one's a no brainer to me and I think this is the end of their search.

UK should consider a proven winner currently not coaching
”The Bob Huggins”. Hey they would have take the baggage, but honestly is Pitino a better choice? At least a consideration……..thoughts???

Breaking news: Kentucky has lined up BYU's Mark Pope to be its next coach, sources tell @CBSSports. Nothing is signed at this hour but the sides are quickly working toward a deal and hope to get it done by the end of the night.
