Don’t be surprised if Jim Les’ name bubbles up over time at UC Berkeley (again), UCLA and Vanderbilt and Stanford. Smart schools recruiting great players that are great students.

Danny Manning out at Wake Forest per report

There's a lot of contradictory reports on this. He's signed through the end of 2023 so it would probably take between $15-20M to buy him out. It's rumored that a wealthy donor has committed the money but who really knows. Maybe they're negotiating the buyout right now behind closed doors, but I wouldn't be surprised to see them give him another year.

George Washington hires Siena head coach Jamion Christian. Siena names assistant coach Carmen Maciariello as interim head coach.

Alabama to buy out head coach Avery Johnson.

Patrick Beilein is being considered by a couple schools- Niagara and Mercer

And though Wake Forest considered buying out Danny Manning's contract, in the end, it was too costly and they decided to give him another year

Manning retained
Bryce Drew fired at Vanderbilt after just 3 years

Bryce Drew fired at Vanderbilt after just 3 years

This one is probably the most surprising to me. He has brought very good talent to Vanderbilt, but got bit by the injury bug this year. I think Bryce is a hell of a coach, and now with everything going on at Valpo, I wonder if Lottich is getting nervous at all.

There is talk among ISU fans that now Bryan Mullins is hired as head coach at SIU, he will hire Brendan Mullins, his brother
as one of his assistants -
Brendan Mullins is currently an assistant under Dan Muller at ISU - and before that was an assistant at UIC - LINK
