CBB Coaching Carousel (Updated List 4/24)

According to the Coaching Changes Twitter feed Vanderbilt is targeting Providence head coach Ed Cooley for their now vacant men's head basketball position. There is a rumor that was mentioned on the Coaching Changes Twitter feed that St John's will hire Rick Pitino as their next men's basketball head coach.
 
Basketball "RULES" in Iowa. Hilton Colossium is packed for every MBB and WBB game and the fan base travels in huge numbers. Due to football, Bama would never give him the support he gets right now.
Can confirm. Iowa St fans love their basketball. They take over Kansas City every year during the Big 12 tourney.
 
Updated the original list on page 1....Several more jobs have opened up and a few have been filled.
 
Here some rumors from the past 24 hours


  • The Scott Cross to Troy rumors are heating up. Sounds like this one could be done soon (or may in fact be done). Cross was 225-161 in his 12 seasons at UT Arlington before being released after a 21 win season in 2017-18.
  • Another one that is heating up is Donnie Jones to Stetson. The former UCF and Marshall head coach is currently an assistant at Dayton. Should know more about this one today.
  • Last week, I mentioned John Shulman and Tony Jones at Tennessee Tech. I’ve also now heard Morehead State assistant Scott Combs mentioned here. All signs currently point to Shulman and Combs being the leaders.
  • Lots of names at Kennesaw State right now. The ones that I have heard are: Xavier assistant Jonas Hayes, Florida associate head coach Al Pinkins, Ole Miss assistant Ronnie Hamilton, Tennessee assistant Desmond Oliver, and Georgia assistant Amir Abdur Rahim. Sounds like at least 1 current DII coach is also involved.
  • Former Charlotte head coach at NC State assistant Bobby Lutz is involved at Appalachian State. No interviews have occurred yet, but this one is starting to move.
