No...Jeff Capel is the Duke Asst people like as head coach. Jason Capel(Jeff's brother) is the one fired from APP ST. That site has the names wrong.

 ... I even clicked on his name on the site and didn't catch that. You'd think ncaa.com would be sharper ... although it does go to show you that everyone makes mistakes like that.

One more, with a mention of Roccaforte from Heath's staff:

 

Lamar makes it official with Tic Price

Bob West
The Port Arthur News

BEAUMONT —      Naming Tic Price to succeed Pat Knight as head basketball coach Tuesday afternoon was arguably the most slam dunk hire in Lamar University sports history, but that doesn’t mean it didn’t come without a hint of mystery?

    Could former Cardinal head coach Steve Roccaforte, who brought Price to LU as an assistant when he was without a job in 2008, be headed back to Beaumont to work for Tic. Roc, who owns a well-deserved reputation as a relentless recruiter, was swept out the door with Stan Heath’s firing at South Florida last Saturday.

    â€œI talk to Roc often,” said Price, in answer to a question about a possible reunion. “He’s a dear friend. We haven’t had that conversation. I’ll put it this way. Right now, he’s a guy I would strongly, strongly consider if he would be interested. I will probably call him soon.”

    It might seem a long shot that Roccaforte, who burned some bridges when he was fired three years ago, would have an interest in returning to the Montagne Center. On the other hand, that might be influenced by what other offers are out there for him.”

Wasn't Tic one of the ones mentioned during our last hire ... or was it when Mac came on? .... name sounds real familiar.

What are the odds Heath gets a new job BEFORE we find a new coach?

 

The old adage applies: "Be very careful what you ask for, you might just get it..."

I think its a given he's employed before we even have an interview.
