DickieV just upped the price for USF...

I can say first hand that a bunch of people love the Pacfic NW and would consider Tampa "the sticks"

Speaking of Westerners engrained in their current geography...whatever happened to Mike Montgomery, the famed Stanford coach that went to the NBA and has since been fired?  

Sounds like path of Pitino and Calipari...

I once met Mike Montgomery at a bar in Atlanta a few years back when they hosted the Final Four.  Nice guy.  Always liked him as a college coach.

He's considered to be a shoo-in to take over Santa Clara now that **** Davey is retiring.  He wouldn't have to move and he doesn't need the money after the Warriors bought out his contract.

I think Chris Lowery is now at the top of my wish list.  I thought I read somewhere (maybe this board) that Woolard had some sort of connection with him.  

[Greg Auman]

Woolard's an SIU graduate. And when he was AD at Saint Louis, he tried to get Bruce Weber when he was at SIU.

[Guest BasketBull.]

He just became my number one...

Anyone that can beat up Seth's team, which beat Duke, with a mid-major program and also get them ranked in the top 15 has my vote.

BeachBull is a faculty member at SIU.  He said that Lowery is likely to go to Minnesota.  They have him targeted as their top candidate.  I wouldn't hold out too much hope for Lowery.

I'm friends with a guy who recently graduated from SIU. Their basketball program is doing all the right things and so is their coach. The teams RPI is at #7 right now and we all know who is responsible for that. There is a good chance they could make it into the Elite 8 at least, so to have Lowery at USF will not only rejuvinate this program, it would turn it into a Big East power. Only 2 big east football schools made it into the tourny this year and if Lowery comes aboard, there is a good chance we could be Big East Champs in Football and Basketball in the same year 5 years from now.

Lowery in '07!

I'm pretty sure he's going to be the next coach at Utah.
