Re: Pearl is gone
interesting regional "Coaching Carousel" in the mid-south....with UT, Ark, and Oklahoma all in the market. further east, but notable, is Lowe out at NCSU.
according to the OKC rags, Buzz Williams has been publicly targeted for the OU job....though some speculation that last night's win makes him a more difficult target. Anderson to Arkie was hot over the weekend but seems to have cooled some....that would surprise me (even though there will be a lot of Wal Mart money on the table both ways). Anderson is a Nolan guy, but his time with Nolan was at Tulsa, too. I think for MA it's time to be his own guy and not Nolan's prodigal son/heir.

Re: Pearl is gone
Pretty sure the Georgia Tech job is still open as well. Gotta think Shaka Smart (VCU) and Richmond's coach will get some looks.

Re: Pearl is gone
I've heard rumors that NC State is interested in Mike Brey. I don't know how reliable those rumors are, or if there's any reciprocal interest. I honestly don't have strong feelings either way on it.

Re: Pearl is gone
That's better than ANY of the Wal Mart pics.
