Heads would explode in Dayton as he supposedly would only leave for Duke, UNC, OSU or IU.

I would say the leading candidate is Dan Huerly from Rhode Island. Up and comer with recent success and lots of east coast recruiting ties. This makes sense

Maybe.

-Reed (their AD) is an ambitious fundraiser. This makes me wonder if the big donors had someone in mind.
I also don't know if they intend to use a search firm. Generally speaking, that's who gages the interest. It's almost like speed dating. They survey AD's, schools, and coaches and then come up with a list of candidates via the mutual interest, and things tend to happen incredibly quickly. It also makes it easy to guess, or at least very much narrow it down, who the likely candidates would be a lot of the times. I don't know if Georgetown uses one, though.

ESPN is pushing Patrick Ewing. Take it for what it's worth considering the source.

I would think Jeff Capel. Coached at VCU and has recruiting ties to the area. Unless Duke is going to give him the keys soon this could be a good fit for him.

Didn't he already try the HC thing and wasn't all that successful? Originally Posted by xufan02

Give me a break.......there are 20 other jobs much better than UD he could and should take. GT being one of them for sure. Plus he's an east coast guy being from PA. Originally Posted by paulxu

He was pretty successful. Worked his way up to coaching at IU. Then got into trouble for calling recruits at no-no times. That's how X got Holloway and Crawford Originally Posted by bleedXblue

You have Jeff Capel and Kelvin Sampson confused. They are nowhere near the same. Originally Posted by BandAid
