Canisius update

The situation at Canisius is not as cut and dry as we thought. I reported earlier in the week that Jim Baron was the only candidate to be interviewed, and at that point he was. After he left campus on Monday, the search continued. I have heard that Cleveland State assistant Jayson Gee, and St. Joe’s assistant Dave Duda have also interviewed. A fourth candidate, Creighton assistant Steve Merfeld, is also expected to get an interview. According to who you talk to, either Baron is demanding too much money from Canisius, or he is not the front-runner that some believe. It does sound like there will be some resolution to this soon and an announcement is expected early next week.
