Pat Knight? They are just hoping to steal some dumb people's money

McCollum is the right answer. Hoosiers will screw it up though.
Can confirm. NC State and Wade are still working out details for today or tomorrow. https://t.co/ezCgWamnyi

His last act as coach was mother****ing the refs and getting ejected after a double technical.LawHall88 said:Sources: Iowa has parted ways with Fran McCaffery.

Dude went out with a blaze.
His overall at Texas Tech and Lamar is a combined 79-123.MarcAg said:

That's pretty much him every day.
I don't see Buzz having a real chance of landing this job. The search for IU would have to be entirely de-railed before he could be considered. Also, I don't see IU as something that attracts Buzz, particularly if you consider how limited his interaction with fan bases is and how much he appreciates his privacy (he has mentioned this several times).LawHall88 said:Odds on the next @IndianaMBB coach per @BetOnline_ag pic.twitter.com/ZftMjAE3J8

I can see him leaving for a place like Virginia, another college town with an average, passionate fan base in terms of sports, or another place like A&M, where basketball is third in terms of the fan base (after football and baseball) like LSU.
I think Buzz is a good fit for A&M, and I have mentioned this several times, but I hope he becomes our Matt Painter (Purdue) and stays with us until he retires. If we keep Buzz as our long-term coach and eventually make some decent investment in a new arena similar to Houston, Baylor, or SMU and establish some decent NIL for basketball, then we will continue to enjoy this type of success (e.g., 3 NCAA trips in a row, being ranked all year).
I think Buzz is an efficient program builder that does not demand many additional resources.
He's a coach that doesn't need nor want the spotlight that a blue blood program comes with. He works a lot better when he's flying under the radar.
Kind of like BCG

I can't even imagine what this place would be like if we had Iowa's last 15 year or whatever, all while a young hometown coach from Bryan/College Station becomes the hottest commodity in all of college basketball and like Kentucky or Tennessee is then looking at him while we spent 15 years waiting for our guy to make the second weekend of the tournament even once.
Then also imagine if like half the fanbase wanted another guy, who's ok, but like you cant tell if they really all just want him because he's the brother of a guy that was an All-American on our football team.
Villanova job is open. That will be an interesting job to follow and see who they can get. Talk Jay Wright into coming back
Another one on the predicted list. That's going to be a fascinating search. Any chance they talk themselves into the other Hurley?

Who are the most successful coaching sons? Seems like the majority of college coaches who have a son, the son ends up being pretty meh.
Scott Drew is one that worked out.

Richard Pitino is solid.

It's the ones that come up in the coaching ranks separate from their dads that have more success. The ones that have only coached under their dads and then take over programs seem like they always fail.
Tony Bennett would be the only other one I can think of that succeeded at a high level.MarcAg said:LawHall88 said:Sources: UNLV has parted ways with Kevin Kruger.

Average at best.
Medved being an alum could help Minnesota punch above its weight a bit in this hiring cycle
In a move that would make complete sense, Colorado State coach Niko Medved - a Minneapolis native who attended Minnesota - has emerged as the frontrunner as the next Gophers coach, sources told @TheFieldOf68.

We are told from a new so as of yet unproven source that if Buzz does find a Texas A&M exit (sort of doubtful at this point?) that Trev is considering TJ (TJ has said he is 100% coming back to ISU but shit can always change), Hoiberg, and McCollum.
— Coaching Changes (@CoachingChanges) March 17, 2025
I dont really see an offramp right now for Buzz besides like Iowa or just quitting. Perhaps Iowa is in it for the masochism.
I can feel the Hoiberg "reeeeeeeeEEEEEE" already building…

Hoiberg sucks!
McCollum is legit, but figure he has better options. He is an Iowa guy, so the Hawkeyes could be landing spot if he doesn't go to Indiana.

:::reeeeeing intensifies :::
The only reason people are throwing Hoiberg's name around is they just guess he will be an option, because of Trev.
Yeah. There is a 25% chance Hoiberg gets fired in the next week. His seat definitely is hot now. His contact that runs through 2029 might save him for a couple of years.AgEfan said:

That coaching changes account has about the same track record of asking random people on the porch of the Chicken
Dont give away my sources!

there's a direct correlation there, relative to the quality of the information....
Accuracy is not the point of that account by the way, its basically just a listing of all the noise that there is including wishful thinking, coaches trying to get themselves a raise, petty backstabbing, made up nonsense, and also legitimate information. It makes it more entertaining, I dont need to like Jeff Goodman telling me something 30 seconds before the whole rest of the internet knows, I WANT the equivalent of talking bull**** about what I heard over some beers on the porch of the Chicken!
West Virginia's Darian DeVries has emerged as one of - if not the top candidate for the Indiana job - source told @TheFieldOf68.
— Jeff Goodman (@GoodmanHoops) March 18, 2025
I'm told by sources that nothing is done yet, but that DeVries could wind up being the guy. Drake's Ben McCollum and a third "mystery" candidate…
Interesting considering the first four matchup, but I have heard/seen a number of national guys alluding this week that Texas' guy might be Sean Miller.
This makes zero sense. Why hire Tobin just to can two years later with a .500 record. Give him time to build at least especially at a MM. Wild stuff, maybe there's something behind the scenes we don't know about.Luke The Drifter said:
