Holy Cross longtime coach (and Geno pal) Bill Gibbons out. Had been put on leave mid-season. Remember the days of that early season game, every once in a while in Worcester, against the Cross?

  1. WCC - Portland (Cheryl Sorenson, 5 yrs) --> Michael Meek (G Fox D3 HC)
Same path as Scott Rueck took from George Fox D3 to D1 Oregon State.

Ark St hired Matt Daniel, a medicore former coach at Marshall (71-85 over 2012-17). Only thing he seems to bring to the table is that he's a Jonesboro native, so maybe they're saving on moving costs.
 
Hatchell is in trouble. And we still havent heard anything from Rutgers. Or maybe there's nothing to hear. It just seemed like CVS might not be coming back.

And then still waiting on Tenn, Penn St. Havent heard anything about GT search.

Jeff Dow got fired at ULM and dropped down to Incarnate Word
 
While as a Bucknell fan I hope their women's basketball coach, Aaron Roussell loves Lewisburg, PA and stays there forever, after taking a program that went 5-25 four years ago to 28 wins this past year and the NCAA's two of the past three years, predict he will end up with one of the better jobs. Penn State is only an hour up road?

Yes, he is a great coach. Just to set the record straight, their 5-25 season was in 2011-12. Time flies. Roussell has now been there for seven years. The Bison record over the past four years is 102-30, including 64-8 in regular season league play. And with the Patriot League academic index, he has to contend with academic requirements only coaches in the Patriot and Ivy Leagues have to face.

Penn State is likely one of the few destinations he would consider, as he and his family love Lewisburg,which is a great place to raise kids. PSU's Bryce Jordan Center is only slightly over an hour away.

Thanks for the feedback. Sounds like there are some alumni roots behind the post.:)

Yeesh. I guess you know you're at the bottom of the D-I barrel when your new hire is a guy who just got fired (er, "declined to seek a contract extension") at a Sun Belt cellar dweller team.

The Chattanooga reporter who said Louisville was preparing to lose Walz now says Walz isn’t a candidate. Lol

As with most coaching searches it seems that 75% of the names floated are just propaganda to make the job seem more desirable/ in demand.

Or planted rumors to help the coach leverage a pay raise.
