OT - Next Louisville Coach

Crean or JT3 make the most sense.

These guys have some career ahead of them and as things currently stand this program is in purgatory for an undetermined period with an approaching date with hell.

This is going to be very bad for Louisville. But there are other programs that most likely will lose their coaches and face sanctions but in a lot better shape than Louisville.

These types of programs tend to bounce back though. They have a lot of built in advantages. Crean, or JT3 would demand a long term contract, to see them through the hard years. If Penn St could rebuild their football program, it won't be hard for Louisville to rebuild their hoops program. Crean and JT3 are not going to get jobs at any school with the history of Louisville, so they'd have to seriously consider the position if offered.
 
I'm having a hard time envisioning a scenario where Louisville can even field a team this year. Everyone on that team who can bail, will bail as soon as they can.

In theory maybe but I think they are radioactive if they are any good. Would you want to take a UL guy only to find out he took a payoff to play and now it is your problem?

This is Louisville we are talking about.

Take your pick.
 
This will be a job for a young whipper snapper with plenty of time to figure out how to bring the program back from hell. Also he won't be one who is highly sought because no one of that stature will take that job.

And they're not going to pay a lot either.
 
the real question is, can we poach any of their recruits???

Former UConn head coach Jim Calhoun told ESPN he will take over the upstart men's basketball team at Division III university St. Joseph in Connecticut this year as the program assembles players to compete in 2018-19.

Calhoun's title will be consultant, and he said that this season he will recruit exclusively, with the help of former UConn assistant Glen Miller, to put together a roster for the following season. He will not coach.

"I love the game, I love the kids and the gym is a gym," Calhoun told ESPN.

With all the speculation on a replacement, Pitino has not been fired/ terminated. He is on administrative leave without pay. There seems to be a 10 day clause about termination in his contract. Until Pitino is officially gone, I don't see Louisville hiring anybody.

And Jurick is on paid administrative leave. So no new AD until Jurick is officially gone.
 
I think there are really two questions if you are Louisville. 1 is this year the other is long term. Given that the season effectively begins in a month you need someone to take over starting today even if he doesn't officially start today. Most likely it will
Be an interim position to give them time to find a permanent guy next season. And with all the unknowns right now it can't really be s current assistant, 2 of which are under FBI scrutiny it seems. That's where a retired/out of work experienced guy, Matta, JTIII etc. comes in. Longer term, who knows but if I were looking I'd look for a highly regarded alumnus who played for Crum if such a guy can be found. Of course this is Louisville so that guy probably doesn't exist but you try.

It's gotta be her. The environment is already set up for her to thrive and improve things.
It's gotta be Coach Del Rio. She'd fit right in.

Their interim president said they'll be looking for interim replacements for both immediately. Reports are they want someone for each position within 48 hours
 
After Pitino, you'd have to find the right guy with right back ground who'd feel comfortable in that environment.
Is Caretaker is available?
