Gerald Turner and Rob Evans were Teammates?

....apparently both played in the Basketball team at Lubbock Christan College. Turner also hired Evans at Mississippi before he went to Arizona St. Evans could be a top candidate.

My prediction:

Monday at 1PM, SMU announces it has hired Evans.

Ok maybe not...

[Stallion]

not only that but Lubbock Christian College now known as Lubbock Christian University was a JUNIOR COLLEGE at the time they went to school there. Our esteemed President is a JUCO. Ladies and Gentleman I rest my case.

Evans would be the best case scenario. By far.

Most impressive is the building of the Ole Miss program, sounds very similar to our situation in many ways (yes, I know it is different as well).

Its also important to note, he took the ASU job when they were in trouble and cleaned it up.

Nolan, baby. Don't forget Nolan.
SOOOOOOOOIIIEEEE.
Talk about some print!

[Charleston Pony]

very interesting speculation...and not a bad candidate. Wonder if he's in Dallas house hunting?

Sound familiar?

“When he arrived in Oxford in 1992 he found: A team that lingered consistently at the bottom of the Southeastern Conference, a program that drew so poorly that often the traveling party of fans from schools like Kentucky, Arkansas and Mississippi State consistently outdrew the home team, a school whose affinity for the Confederate Battle Flag made it virtually impossible to attract top recruits. The Ole Miss basketball program was viewed as a graveyard for coaches, a program that had no chance for success, even ‘modest’ success.” Evans inherited a basketball program at Ole Miss which had been descibed as hopeless due to a variety of on and off the court

"Rob? Hey, it's Phil. Welcome aboard!"

Evans or Buzz Peterson would be an immediate recruiting and coaching upgrade.
