Where are all the threads with information on rumors regarding where Hart is headed, where he is interviewing, plane tracking, etc.? It seems very quiet around here for an active coaching search taking place. Suprised I haven't seen the "Hart is in Dayton Ohio as we speak" thread, or "Gregg Marshall Presser scheduled" thread?

Half those names are horrible. No way Howland would be over Marshall either. Or Pitino over White.

Musselman is an assistant at Arizona State right now and has been lauded for the job he has done there thus far, so he does have some college exp, albeit very minimal

My bad.Tired of seeing Tyndall and Miles. If you didn't want Martin they shouldn't be talked about. Pitino either.

Another good one though.

No problem. I am not interested in most of these names either, but have posted my list in other threads. Just trying to put together a running list.

I got it. Best coach without a job right now..
Lionel Hollins

He did wonders for the Memphis grizzlies. Coacheup effort and fundamentals. Competed well against teams that spent way more on players than he could have.

Bring him in to interview at least

I've been saying the same thing. I even started a thread. I think he could recruit close to Coach Cal levels.
