Who is the next Men's Basketball Coach at UC?

He did not fare particularly well at Illinois but he's spent 9 years at Akron since so obviously there is potential for growth (and it's a totally different era)

He's been to 3 NCAAs in a league that traditionally is a one bid league. His performance at Illinois makes me question whether he is a good choice.

Groce from Akron is an interesting option. Not sure if coming from Akron to the BigXII is optimal, though it worked once before for UC.

As long as they don't do the same thing all over and get some cheapo coach from a Div II or NKU type of program...again. They need to pony-up the cash for a name that excites people and players.

The Coach doesn't need ties to the program, but winning coaching skills.

(Does not seem like a very serious list...)

I'd be on board with Calhoun. He did an amazing job turning Youngstown St into a 20 win team. The one consistent trait all of his teams have is they are good on the offensive glass. Although the one consistent weakness is they are always bad on the defensive glass. Shot selection was mixed at Youngstown St, but he has embraced modern basketball in his two year stint at Utah St, averaging 830 rim attempts and just 240 midrange shots. Compare that to our 570 rim attempts and 547 midrange shots this year. Utah St made 60% inside the arc this year, 11th best in the country. We made 50%, #247 nationally.

Starting a new thread here to begin speculating who the next coach will be.
