Might as well start a list and when filled, will add in who took it if it wasn't TOS:

Bowling Green: Michael Huger ----> Todd Simon
High Point:
Texas: Chris Beard ----->
Austin Peay:
Ole Miss: Kermit Davis ----> Chris Beard
New Mexico State:
NJIT:
Texas Tech:
Syracuse: Jim Boeheim ----> Adrian Autry
Wofford:
Green Bay: Will Ryan -----> Sundance Wicks
Army:
Cal: Mark Fox ---->
Georgetown: Patrick Ewing ----> Ed Cooley
American:
Georgia Southern:
Georgia Tech: Josh Pastner ----> Damon Stoudamire
St. John's: Mike Anderson ----> Rick Pitino
McNeese State: Who knows ----> Will Wade
Temple: Aaron McKie ---->
Buffalo: Jim Whitsett ---->
Providence: Ed Cooley ----->
Southern Utah: Todd Simon ----->
Iona: Rick Pitino -----> Tobin Anderson
Fairleigh Dickinson: Tobin Anderson ----->

Thoughts on some of openings:

High Point: shocking it was only one year with Tubby's kid, guess former OU Asst AD wanted to start clean on this one
Bowling Green: not as shocking, Huger (met him a couple times and from all accounts) was a nice guy, but couldn't win there. Toledo Blade saying BG has resources to win the MAC, but people forget it's been since 1968 they have made an NCAA Tournament.
Texas: Interim coach I think keeps the job if they get to the 2nd weekend for sure

Add NJIT. I also think Adams might be on his way out at Texas Tech.

Adams absolutely should be fired if what is alleged is true.

Unfortunately cannot disagree. You would think people would be cognizant to what is said and what is not said out there, but alas, it happened and now Texas Tech gets to make a "fun" decision going into B12 week when their former coach is also available to potentially come back.

Yeah quoting the Bible. Pretty disgusting. Should probably excommunicate him from polite society.

I think the bigger questions re: APSU include.....

1) What will the big strong post player do? Stay or transfer?

2) How much longer will the OVC even exist?

Will Wade is apparently the top choice for McNeese State

I don’t think it’s open. I believe they’ve already named Adrian Autry as the new head coach. I did not see “interim” attached to that title.

whitlock jumped the shark years ago. But since Jesus was dark skinned (ie not white) he may have a point.

Well the color of Jesus’s skin has been a matter of conjecture for almost 2,000 years. The best evidence suggests He was neither black nor white but olive-skinned. So, in some cultures they have depicted Him a little lighter than probably was actually the case, and in other cultures they have depicted Him a little darker than the average Semite of that era.

Here’s an interesting Wikipedia article that talks about some of the different ways He has been portrayed over the centuries:

It doesn't help that he was already being investigated for spitting on a player and then saying "I can spit on you whenever I want."

And Adams is no longer at Texas Tech. The way they worded it, it was his decision to step down, or they gave him a chance to step down.

Also, FWIW, Chris Beard is apparently in talks with Ole Miss.

Thanks for posting. I hadn't heard about that. If the investigation finds that those allegations are true, it does sound like the actions and statements of a total scumbag! That would be enough alone to can him, and does show a pattern of insensitivity and stupidity, IMHO.

I can't imagine a rational person ever actually saying that, so consider me skeptical. However, if true, that's certainly not a good look.

His response to that incident was pretty strange, honestly. He admitted to "slobbering" on the player due to being sick, and didn't deny the "I can spot on you whenever I want" comment. Instead he said "I don't remember saying that."

Not a denial at all, and the quote was reported by a third party, not the person spit on.

The way Boeheim was done I considered "not right." Don't get me wrong, not his biggest fan, but someone who served 47 years at their alma mater and finds out via press release that he is finished didn't seem right.

Texas Tech didn't surprise me at all. Will be intriguing who they decide to go get.

Where the buzzards are circling:
Georgetown

LOL that reads like a Babylon Bee article. Slobbering on a player because you're sick...geez. Truth is stranger than fiction these days.

The final press conference was a little uncomfortable. I agree it seems a little off.

The Green Bay job opening is going to be interesting to watch. ESPN is already mentioning a ton of names with connections to Will Ryan which is odd (Saul Phillips and John Tharp, who coached Pritzl at Hillsdale), but we'll see where they go.

Also, hearing Will Wade's name getting thrown around again.....strap in.

What Will Wade got in trouble for in 2019 is legal now. If I’m a program that needs a jolt, I’d totally hire him. That VCU tree is legit.

In a Yahoo Sports article about TTech of Adams stepping down there were comments that followed.

Here is the first one: "Hocutt has to be the worst AD of all time. Enjoy it Tech. He will hire another loser like he always does."
