Sounds like Drake will be hiring South Dakota State head coach Eric Henderson

Henderson took over for T.J. Otzelberger in 2019 at SD State. He was an assistant under Oetzelberger. It was his first college head coaching job, and has done a great job there. In 6 seasons, he's won 4 regular season titles and 2 tournament championships in the Summit League, and was Coach of the Year twice.

Colorado State promoted Ali Forokmanesh to head coach

Good for him. Most of us remember Ali Farokhmanesh. He was a high scoring guard at Kirkwood Community College and got a scholarship to Northern Iowa, where he played in 2008-09 and 2009-10. He was a pretty good shooter, and averaged just under 10 ppg each of his two seasons at UNI. But he is best remembered for his shots that helped UNI upset Kansas in the 2010 NCAA Tournament.

He played 3 years professionally, then got into coaching. He was an assistant at Drake first, then moved with Niko Medved to Colorado State in 2018. Medved has moved on to Minnesota now, so Farohkmanesh gets his first head coaching job at the age of 36.

Here is a video clip of his famous shot - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GiwqEz50ipY

And, here was a great video he made a few years ago to recreate his famous shot that nailed down the win over Kansas in the 2010 NCAA Tournament.
It's worth watching. - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lnOF03ownVQ

Yes. I don't know if that was originally in the script, but it was genius.

surprising report that highly successful Alabama head coach Nate Oats is expressing interest in the open Maryland spot because he's frustrated with the "revenue sharing" requirement in the SEC, where the most successful schools like Alabama are required to share some of their revenue with less successful schools.
Bobby Hurley also interested in the Maryland job.
