Dusty May is going to have a nice $ pick ahead of him. I think Kelsey is going to get one of these jobs too.

He's got a pretty good gig in Charleston.

$1M per year in a vacation destination or $2M per year in mid-America at an average program in a major conference?

The dumbass Columbus Dispatch finally learned something that all of us knew...Miller isn't taking that job.

May, Diebler now "top candidates."

I know which one I'd choose, but maybe Kelsey wants to be at a "big time" conference school.

You are correct. I have thought about this and don’t have an answer. I am guessing Pat has a high quality of life at Charleston. One thing to note, the OSU and Michigan job will pay a lot more than 2 million a year in HC salary. Kelsey can be selective, but he will not finish his career at Charleston.

[XUGRAD80]

And Juwan Howard out at Michigan.

That job should garner some interest

Probably the most attractive job out there right now.

I don't think Kelsey gets a job like OSU or Michigan yet - I was thinking more along the lines of a Vanderbilt.

Most of these mid-majors are still a huge jump to a major conference. Schools like Michigan and OSU are going to be under tremendous pressure to win right away. It will be hard for an AD to pull the trigger on a mid-major guy under that pressure.

Kelsey will probably get there eventually, but he needs success at somewhere in-between first.

It's not Louisville. But probably #2.

I think under “normal” circumstances, UofL is a better gig. But that job has just chewed up 2 guys in 6 years. Not a sure thing by any measure

Fair, but it's a lot easier to follow Kenny Payne than Denny Crum and Rick Pitino!
