Crazy day today as a lot of guys head home from Houston. I just wanted to follow-up on a few tweets that I sent earlier…
- UAB: I’m hearing this will be wrapped up soon. I can confirm that Auburn assistant Chuck Person is no longer a candidate. I’ve heard that current assistant coach/interim head coach Rob Ehsan is the leader, but former UCLA and St. John’s head coach Steve Lavin is making a late charge. I’ve also heard that a sleeper is North Florida head coach Matt Driscoll. Finally, there is a current MAC head coach in the hunt – a long shot, but definitely in the mix. More here soon – heard the announcement could come as early as tomorrow.
- Wright State: On Tuesday, I mentioned South Dakota State head coach Scott Nagy and his involvement at Wright State (Daily Dirt -3/29/16). It now sounds like he will be the choice to replace Billy Donlon at WSU. I also mentioned Joe Dooley, Marty Simmons, and Cliff Warren (Daily Dirt 3/30/16) – sounds like that was the final group that Nagy beat out. More on this tomorrow.
- **EARLY NAME at South Dakota State: DII Augustana (SD) head coach Tom Billeter. He’s coming off of a 34-2 season and a DII National Championship. He’s also lurking at Milwaukee…
