  • I would suspect that BYU takes a step back next year. I wonder how all of those "Way too Early" polls will change now.

              That ends that version of Musical Chairs:

              1. SMU fired Rob Lanier and hired Andy Enfield from USC (while Rice fired Scott Pera and hired Lanier);
              2. USC hired Eric Musselman from AR;
              3. AR hired John Calipari from KY;
              4. KY hired Mark Pope from BYU;
              5. BYU hired an NBA assistant.

                Someone will need to become the top paid assisstant in the NBA.

                  Indiana State is adding New Orleans HC Mark Slessinger (an Indiana native) as associate head coach. I believe this is at least the second instance in this cycle of a smaller program's coach leaving for an assistant gig. Similar to what we saw in football. I wouldn't be surprised if the portal/NIL is a factor here. Obviously ISU will have guys poached by bigger programs, but probably hard at the lower programs where any talented player you bring in will transfer up.

                  • @MattNorlander:

                    NEWS: Top Baylor assistant Alvin Brooks III is leaving the Bears to join Mark Pope's staff at Kentucky, sources tell @CBSSports. He spent the past eight years under Scott Drew and will be associate HC @ UK. Brooks is highly respected in the profession. It's a major coup for Pope.

                      Link Academy head coach Bill Armstrong is headed to Baylor as an assistant.

                      I think the the Link to UC pipeline wasn't really a thing, but I'm pretty sure now UC won't have any more of a shot at a Link kid as anyone else...

                      • Pete Thamel — Sources: Texas Tech is targeting Wyoming head coach Jeff Linder as the top assistant on Grant McCasland’s men’s basketball staff. Sides are close to a deal, which is expected to be announced soon.

                            UWGB is going to hire, wait for it, ... Doug Gottlieb as next head coach

                            CBS article - "As part of the terms of his employment, Gottlieb will continue to host his nationally syndicated daily radio show for Fox Sports Radio, a source told CBS Sports. It's an unprecedented arrangement: Gottlieb will be a Division I coach and a member of the media simultaneously. "

                                I wonder if he's allowed to recruit on-air. He isn't going to have a lot of free time to host or visit players.
