There are some quality jobs open out there, and Kentucky is one of them. The Wildcats are apparently being very aggressive with their coaching search, as athletic director Mitch Barnhart is aiming for some potentially high-priced targets with some serious skins on the wall. However, those coaches, at this moment, arent expected to take the post. Barnhart, though the Wildcats are soon building a new facility, must show coaches that hes willing to make a serious commitment to the program. With that said, sources close to the situation say that Vanderbilt assistant Travis Jewett is interviewing for the vacancy, along with Liberty head coach Jim Toman. Meanwhile, former Arizona State coach Pat Murphy has shown interest in the opening, and UC Santa Barbara head coach Andrew Checketts has a previous relationship with Barnhart that could make him a viable candidate as well. The Wildcats would be smart and are likely to take a look at Wright States Greg Lovelady and Louisiana Techs Greg Goff as well.
We expect another head coaching job at a program with a ton of potential to come open in the next couple of days. Stay tuned for the very latest, but the potential candidates for this vacancy would be excellent.
