Eric Musselman will interview with USC. I'm pretty sure if that goes well, the job is his.

Possible domino effect, Chris Beard to Arkansas

LOL. But his winning percentage at X was .729. Pretty darn good. And, he was the coach who started the trend of beating UC. Before him, UC dominated the series.

Actually (and unfortunately), the Muskies' dominance of the Cats began before Gillen arrived. Bob Staak went 4-2 in the Shootouts during his six years at the helm at XU from 1979-85. Of course, that was during the nadir of UC basketball, spanning the Ed Badger/Tony Yates years.

Oh he was good and went to Virginia. He was humble when he said he was just "Joe bag of donuts".

Pete Gillen was a pretty good coach, imo.

I never had any respect for Mack, in fact Skip Prosser is the only X coach I can remember that deserved any acclaim.

Andy Enfield is to SMU is official this morning

I’m really not sure where USC goes from here but Arrentin Page might be available.

Muss Bus could be an option (I meant for USC, but I guess Page could also go to Arkansas like every transfer)

Loeffler had been rumored for this job since the regular season ended. He's basically headed back to his stomping grounds. It will be interesting to see who Wes chooses to fill that spot.

People clamoring for DerMarr out there.

Chris Mack to College of Charleston https://x.com/thefieldof68/status/17...429-7Zsp1zj4Tg

So Mack is taking over for his former assistant at X who just left to take the job where Mack used to coach.

Yes. This will be Loeffler's first D1 HC job.

Assistant Josh Loeffler hired to be head coach at Loyola Maryland. Wasn’t he only with us for one year after leaving Johns Hopkins?

Yes. This will be Loeffler's first D1 HC job.
