I know Sean graduated from Pittsburgh. From what I understand about him they've got a family beef with pitt about something, so I'm not sure if either are coming.

Lol Archie to Pitt, nah.

Also Underwood "crossing Ts and dotting I's" guess MY feeling was wrong. Interested to see the money he's going to get.

TCU will dig Dixon a coaching funeral. Goodluck with that

From no chance to getting hired in one day. How about that.

I can't speak for your or your reasons but that is the name I think most Pitt fans fear popping up the most. He is a troll from hell.

Pitt fans may have to face their fears.

UNLV has an issue with the $1 mill buyout. Cincy not budging. Pitt has no issues paying it.

Arizona is a much better program than Pitt and he's not on the hot seat. He's been to the sweet 16/elite 8 four of the last six years and will get his final four eventually with the Cats. They also have another elite class coming in next year and will be right up there in the Pac 12 again.

Arizona needs more 3 and 4 year players. Solid recruiting but Seans always losing guys and has a super young team. Great gig.

I agree, or get lucky with a McConnell type transfer situation.

Regardless, I don't think he leaves Arizona for Pitt.

Rutgers is a career killer and Rhode Island should be favored to win or be close to the top of the A-10 next year. No reason Hurley would want Rutgers except for the close to home thing.

Doug gottlieb wants the Tulane or ok St head coaching gig hehe

I think a nice get but certainly not a flashy name for Pitt would be Mark Schmidt from the Bonnies. Great coach, can recruit and has ties back in the Pittsburgh area from his time at Robert Morris. I think they'll look at a few A-10 coaches.

Would be a kind outside the box hire and I don't want to speak for all the Pitt base but I think this would make a lot of them homicidial/suicidal. They are expecting a grand slam and seem to be ready to throw Barnes under the bus if they don't get someone that is nationally considered Dixon's equal at least. One of the things they seemed to have viewed as a negative is that he didn't have the flash or flair to build the program up to even where it had been. He got stale. Schmidt wouldn't exactly be a rally the troops hire when they are all expecting a Miller or Marshall type. But you are right though and everyone pretty much considers him a really good coach.

I wonder if Tom Crean gets tired of the undeserved perpetual hot seat at Indiana and decides to move on and if so, where would he go?

Even had professors taking shots at him in classes that his daughter was in. That is so bad.

I think they have done what fans do though and kind of done a 180 now but he could still be bitter and I wouldn't blame him.

3 out of the last 5 years they have made the sweet 16. fans are unrealistic assholes.

by **WilliamC** » Tue Mar 22, 2016 14:35:55

Kelvin Sampson left him with a superpower program that was gutted and burned also. Took him a while to get things back but now it seems they are solid all around with recruiting and everythig.
