Realistic Candidates:
Michael White (LA Tech)Richard Pitino (Minn)Bobby Hurley (Buffalo)Steve Prohm (Murray State)Brad Underwood (SFA)Ben Jacobson (N Iowa)Rick Byrd (Belmont)Will Wade (Chattanooga)
Long-shot Candidates:
Gregg Marshall (Wichita St.)Archie Miller (Dayton)
The VolQuest Hot Board is linked below. The ones bolded above are on both lists. Here are the additions from VolQuest:
Buzz Williams (VA Tech)Dan Hurley (Rhode Island)While we are a step ahead of Tennessee basketball historically based on tournament reuslts, i think our list would probably be pretty similar if we moved on from Weber after next season.
