In Which I Praise Northwestern Because Ugh Let's Just Get This Over With
Yesterday, I wrote at CBS about the gigantic new contract Northwestern gave Pat Fitzgerald. 10 years, ~$1.8 per year, and more money for assistants and facilities. Not bad for Fitzgerald or jNWU. In fact, I argued that this was the best move Northwestern could have made, regardless of Fitzgerald's...
EMU Basketball Coach: Eagles Leaning Toward Retread
The buzz around Ypsilanti (other than "WTF why is it snowing?") is that former Butler/Iowa coach Todd Lickliter is becoming the frontrunner for the EMU basketball coaching vacancy. The Detroit News also says that the Eagles interviewed Grand Valley State (Division II) head coach Ric Wesley, but...
Mid-Major Tournament Success No Guarantee Of Success At Next Level
In SI's Luke Wynn's latest college hoops power rankings, he tracks the last 10 mid-major coaches that got hired by major programs the year after reaching (at least) the Sweet 16. I thought the below chart was interesting for two few different reasons. The first (and most obvious) is that Gene...
2010 Coaching Carousel: More teams hand out pinkslips
It's that season, where schools look upon others going to the postseason with green envy and make a move to try and revitalize their program, chopping off the public head. Here is our update on the coaches on the hot seat; many of these coaching changes were expected by us and by the coaches...

Many of the coaches on this list were pretty much on the hot seat from the beginning of the year. And some who should be on the hot seat are no...
MARCHIFORNICATION ROUND 2: JOE PATERNO VS. GARY BARTA
Scene: A spacious office with cardboard boxes everywhere. A middle-aged man and his son forlornly pack things away. So you're not going to go to the press and tell them about how you got railroaded out of town, Dad? Look. I know it would be superficially rewarding to get in front of as many...

The Press Conference Happened. So... Now What?
Gary Barta's press conference came and went, and the Todd Lickliter Era is no more. We already knew it was no more, but there's some merit to the formalities all the same. That's because Barta's presser was, for the most part, informative and helpful. This isn't going to be one giant slob job on...
Iowa Press Conference Open Thread: Good Night, Funnyman
Word on the street is that Todd Lickliter will not be in attendance for today's press conference; that would seem to indicate that this is not a strictly voluntary departure by Lickliter. So it goes. What that means, though, is that there's one man on the mic for the entire time, the...
