Marquette head coach Steve Wojciechowski is promoting assistant coach Dwayne Killings to the associate head coach position vacated by Stan Johnson, who left to take the Loyola Marymount job. That still leaves an assistant coaching position open on his staff.

I would wheel in Ron to some games. Yes he suffered from Parkinson's but was a dedicated BU fan until the end. Too bad he passed before seeing the recent success. He was more optimistic than me!BRADLEY BASKETBALL

As posted above, former Wisconsin-Milwaukee head coach and current Minnesota assistant Rob Jeter is finalizing contract details and will become the next head coach at Western Illinois. Jeter was a candidate for the Bradley head coaching job in 2011 when he was then head coach at UW-Milwaukee, and it was rumored that Jeter was the personal favorite of President Joanne Glasser at one time, but other issues took him out of consideration.

Air Force hires re-Joe Scott, who coached Air Force from 2000-2004 and won a Mountain West Championship in 2004 and went to the NCAA Tournament. He left in 2004 to take the head coaching job at Princeton. He was also head coach at Denver, and an assistant at Holy Cross and Georgia.

One other coaching change of significance....
Tarleton State University is a Division II school that will join Division I officially on July 1, 2020. They just replaced their head coach, naming Billy Gillispie as their new head coach-
Billie Gillispie is a former assistant coach at Tulsa and Illinois under Bill Self. He has been the head coach previously at UTEP, Texas A&M, Kentucky, and Texas Tech. He has had issues of player abuse and NCAA violations in his past, as well as a history of alcohol abuse and multiple arrests for DUI. But he is also known as a superb recruiter, and he has a history of winning, so Tarleton State is rolling the dice.

One D1 head coach who many thought was on the "hot seat" this season was Dave Leitao of DePaul. But despite going just 3-15 in the Big East and finishing in last place for the 4th straight season, Leitao just got a contract extension through 2023-24 from DePaul. Leitao is a good guy and it's nice for him, but DePaul fans are not too happy with this.

I've got a theory that if you give 100 percent all of the time, somehow things will work out in the end.
