Arkley had this tweet earlier, which suggests Ohio is down to four.
he doesn't say these four guys are the only finalists but with as good as Arkley's coverage is you gotta think it is likely one of these guys will be OUr next coach.

Saul Phillips-NDSU
Pat Kelsey-Winthrop
Jeff Neubauer-EKU
LaVelle Morton-NC Central


With all of the CBB coaching world at the Final Four, I would expect Schaus has already interviewed his favorites and we can expect a presser next week.

Well Ohio is a step up.....but not much of one.



Haha....from bisonville.com.....NDSU's fan forum.  From their perspective it  looks like Larry Conrath is already showin Saul Phillips some houses. Sounds like Will Ryan would come with him....Bo from Wisky's son.  The other 2 coaches are NDSU guys and would probably stay in Fargo.  Who the heck would want to stay in Fargo?

They pay Saul very little and with all OUr other pluses it looks like we should have a good shot at him.

Their forum also mentioned Kelsy from Winthrop as the other Ohio top choice.

Youre kidding, right, Pataskala? You actually think we're going to hire away a head coach from a bigger school??

Hey we offer lutefisk and lefse once a month as well as regular floods and apparently good basketball coaches as Phillips followed Tim Miles (Nebraska via Colorado State).

Those over at the bisonville forums also think the Summit League is better than the MAC.

Hmm - that's not the general opinion I read there.

Fair enough.

I meant to say some but should have said a few think it might be comparable. Rookie mistake

It's certainly not a good thing that the University of Tulsa is now also looking for a coach.  I guess that's why we pay JS the moderately big bucks.

No.  An assistant.

Apparently, assistants have been ruled out from the beginning.
