Sifting Through the Articles So You Don't Have To II

E-mailed on 3/24/11

Take off the list:
Mark Fox -- Said he's coming back to Georgia

Put on the list (I guess):
Dave Rose -- Head Coach of BYU for six years. Went to the NIT his first year, NCAA all years after. Currently in Sweet 16. Has won 20 games every year as head coach. File under "Get Real." He's coaching BYU and is Mormon. BYU is starting its own national TV network. No reason for him to leave. He's at his dream job.
Greg Kampe -- Head Coach of Oakland since...1984. Not a misprint. 1984. 7 NCAA trips during that time. File under "Terrible Choices." The only things he has going for him are (1) He looks the part of someone from Missouri, and (2) Pat Forde (an ESPN Alumn) mentioned his name as a possible replacement.

Thoughts on update: Pat Forde is generally a voice of reason but in a recent report he mentioned Dave Rose, Ben Jacobson, Cuonzo Martin, and Greg Kampe as all "on the short list." Bad news if this is the short list.
