Nored's name has been HOT for that job. Played for Brad Stevens at Butler.

Unlike the Cincinnati job, this one makes a lot of sense for a younger version of John Groce. Today, I just don’t think so. I’m picturing the bear-hug embrace between Groce and Wentz after the MAC Tourney win. Add to that Travis is in the conference and the MAC has shown growth. I think he stays put. Maybe it’s my Zippy colored glasses.

I really don't think Butler is that attractive of a job any more.  Nice program, great history...sure, but not the type of program you can't pass up.

Let’s hope we dodge this. Posted yesterday.

I'm not sure how Shrewsberry is a serious candidate. His run at Notre Dame has been pretty terrible. Nored might be our best hope.

Nored and Steele have to be frontrunners ahead of Groce. Shrews being mentioned is a joke.

Agree. Shrewsberry one good season at Penn State. Otherwise terrible.

Interesting...

Gerry McNamara to Syracuse. Not that Groce was really a candidate for the position, but it's a positive that this hiring doesn't open up another vacancy that might have been.
