The Star Trib published an article last week showing that the Gophers are lagging behind the rest of the B1G in hiring coaches of color. Dennis Gates from Cleveland State seems to be one of the front runners that would meet that criteria.

The media (Dan at KFAN) wants Eric Musselman (sp). But it sounds like Arkansas is going to extend his contract. Eric M as reported by KFAN wanted the job when Pitino was hired. Just what they say.

He was reportedly due a retention bonus next month, so that was likely a consideration.

I figured he would be gone. Listening to KFAN I thought they would hold him for a bit due to contract buyouts? IDK though, I was in and out of the tractor and the whole fire here/hire there situations was a convoluted deal.

It's official now -- Pitino's been axed my Gophers. Ironically, he's reportedly being mentioned for New Mexico opening, as is Craig Smith's former mentor Tim Miles.

Smith also has a number of people promoting him for the Minnesota job, which isn't officially open yet either, but is about 99.9 % likely to be open soon.

I think TJ is very likable as a person. What he will be able to do at Iowa State remains to be seen. I don’t see him lasting a decade, but what do I know. A coach can become a millionaire on contract buyouts.

The early responses on Twitter from UNLV fans lean heavily to "please let this be true".

Anybody else think this is funny? I mean he hasn't exactly had success with his guys. I'd say DJJ was his biggest success but what also not? I mean I liked him when he was here, but the way he left, left a bad taste in my mouth. and the fake twitter followers was kind of a red flag? thoughts?

As is a certain former 'Yote coach. The buyout terms are interesting -- pre-7/1, he'd reportedly owe UNLV $3.15m, but it drops to $1.05m after 7/1, and ISU would apparently still have to buyout Prohm.
Smith reportedly has a lower buyout percentage, but it also seems his contract extension is more recent.

Just goes to show how an opinion or story line by some thought to be credible source grabbed by national media, can last for quite a while.
For instance, NDSU football will be able live off their football success for a decade, even if they were to have a number of down years. I think it is laziness on behalf of those that need a story to fill their broadcast.
In the case of a head coach, seems they would do more research.
