Coaching carousel thread 2015 offseason

I don't know what the record is for average margin of victory per game for a season is but I think UConn's margin of victory for the season is something like 42. SMU didn't do well against them but then no one (except Stanford) did.

Might just need a change of scenery. Also the SEC hasn't been the gauntlet that the Big 12 has been in recent years. (Although A&M, Auburn, and LSU are bringing in star studded classes and of course UK will reload).

You forgot about Florida. Over the past 10-15 years, they've about matched Kentucky.

Barnes has at least proven he can win at high level. A guy like Underwood at SFA might be a little more of a risk. I don't think Tennessee would be in play for big names like Shaka Smart or Gregg Marshall but what do I know?

It sounds like those two are more interested in Texas than Tennessee.

Yep and had decent success there. But he failed in his other two head coaching gigs.

Is DePaul a good school academically? I accidentally ended up next to the campus last time I was in Chicago. Love that neighborhood. Just a short little walk to Wrigley.

I think it's around the same level as Tulsa.

Basketball team plays in a nondescript arena in the suburbs

Yeah, I was talking to guy who went there and he said they play in Rosemont near O'Hare but they were going to build a new arena in Chicago soon. Not sure if that has happened.

Yeah, I think the plan is to build an arena near McCormick Place

Shaka has done a great job at VCU. Would be a very good hire for Texas.

Gregg Marshall would be a better hire IMO

For all the Shaka love, he hasn't reached the Sweet 16 since that wild Final Four run in 2011

lol. Such a give up hire. Might as well have looked at Joey Meyer and Pat Kennedy. They're still coaching.
