Speculation from SI.com, along with mention of SMU and Bowden...

I think Graham would be a terrific choice at WVU - absolutely incredible how Tulsa has become such a springboard in both football and basketball for top tier coaching talent...I don't know if their AD has been there for the last decade, but he'd have a pretty strong track record.

Does Malzahn get the nod if Graham leaves? Otherwise, we've got another CUSA school to contend with...

Fearless prediction: IF Graham is hired at WVU, Tulsa will have it's new coach announced before SMU.

That Hillbilly state will revolt if Graham is named head coach

Let me guess - they'll drag couches out into the street and light them on fire?

Oh yeah. Seriously, the Governor might have to call the national guard.

Not only will the students be burning furniture, rioting, and looting in Morgantown, the farmers and coal miners will be out in full force with their pitchforks and rifles.

Ya think they might withdraw their complaint against Rice if he bolts?

Here in Arkansas we just burn them where they are. On the front porch.

It adds to the porch decor. The old wash tub, the hound dog sittin, various burned out appliances, and of course the primer painted car on blocks in the front yard.

A good dog stays under the porch.

Good point!! That way he stays out of the line of fire when Ma spits her chaw into the wash tub.

My Malzahn insider stopped by with the WVU story this morning. I guess he will go there if Graham does. But he has also been contacted by Oklahoma. No mention of staying at Tulsa as the head coach.
