Iona has reached and agreement with Rick Pitino to take over as head coach, 24 hours after Tim Cluess stepped down.
I always wonder how can some schools hire a new coach immediately without going through search firms, posting the job publicly, soliciting applications, or interviewing minorities. Isn't that contrary to EEOC guidelines?
