2008 Coaching Analyst Carousel

Has the 2007 coaching carousel slowed down? How about taking a sneak peek at next year's carousel at FoxSports.com by Jeff Goodman. Some of the names mentioned: a singer, a rookie, a fox, a tv star, and of course John Calipari. He also lists 10 assistants that may become head coaches next year.


Topics of Interest?

Kevin O'Neill officially becomes an assistant at Arizona and Lute wants him to become his Larry Shyatt. But are back to back championships realistic for Lute's swan song?

Remember what Jerry Tarkanian said? The NCAA is upset at Carolina so they take it out on Western Small State? They are pissed at UCLA so they take it out on Southeast by Southwest State? How about this?. But wait, Iowa State was below standards, yet they found a way out
