All Schertz has ever done as a head coach is win, so you have to think that a big school with very deep pockets will come a callin eventually. My guess is Mark Cuban wanting to do to the basketball program what he did with the football program there in Indiana. But who knows!

Rest easy ufez, ya boy will not be poached by NC State. Apparently his buyout is pretty large and kind of complicated. State goes with their old point guard, Justin Gainey.

And my UNC insider(ish) told me this when I asked their search:
Not much. It's been the same 3-4 since the beginning but nothing concrete. Lloyd, Dusty May, Donovan. Some others swear they aren't leaving their school, but have reached out to UNC anyway ... Funny how that works ... . But other than knowing that Donovan would want the job just not sure he's #1 on UNC's list ... the others are hard to nail down. Hard to tell if they're just wrangling for a raise and if UNC is really interested. The basketball side does a decent job of keeping their mouth shut so it's hard to gauge where things are right now. They had a ton of interest but other than being able to narrow down 4-5 guys, it's been fairly quiet. Donovan has made it no secret ... since the job first opened when Roy retired ... that the UNC job is the only one he would leave the NBA for, just not sure how interested UNC is at this point. I have been busy the last couple nights so I haven't gotten an update since Wednesday.

I have a friend here that is from a family that has very deep Raleigh and Wolfpack athletics roots that said this about my question regarding Justin Gainey:
Gainey has never been a head coach, which invites some concerns but yeah ... culturally you couldn't find a better fit. And there's some who have told me that Boo was pushing him last year. He'll be involved in the process, and apparently Corrigan is at least asking about St Louis coach Josh Schertz, who is one of the better offensive minds in college. I've seen Phil Martelli Jr's name floating around too. Those are both solid guys who have won at lower levels, although Shertz has more experience. I like the Furman coach Bob Richey as well. Another solid coach who has stuck it out through some tough circumstances to build a winner at a not so easy place to win.

McMahon has an $8 million buyout. Governor Landry is gonna love that.
Plus, they owe State $4 million for poaching Wade.
Hurricanes coach Rod Brin'Amour weighed in with his thoughts on the Will Wade situation. Disclosure: Brindy married into Wolfpack basketball royalty.

Aww, Rogers! I'm so sorry for your loss. And as someone who was a full time (and job searching) caretaker of our (then) suicidal daughter, I know how emotionally, mentally, and physically exhausting that is.Go full on Duval County for a while.

With the High Point University (North Carolina) victory over Wisconsin today, it's officially now March Madness. It would be cool if they were the High Point Stoners, but noooooo...they had to go with the Prowlers. I'm sure it has nothing to do with that old AC/DC classic, Night Prowler. I think HPU is a very conservative campus.

Why would they want him back so badly? It's a different era for cheating coaches and his old LSU way is now the new mainstream way.

Ooh! I like them a lot. Good job, Titans. As for the white helmets, I have no issue with them. In fact, I wish the Panthers would switch to a white helmet. Other than the Lions, I don't really care for silver helmets.

LOL. Very true now that I think about it.
I just can't see signing Tua, no matter how cheaply he can come today, with his concussion history. Mostly it's a morality issue right now since one more concussion will probably ruin his life. How can someone justify being a party to that?
