2024-25 Coaching Carousel

100% however I don't think they have the same financial power (Indiana) or local appeal (Iowa).

I could see them going for Josh Schertz, Drew Valentine, Chris Mack, or maybe Sean Miller.
Agree. McCollum likely would prefer Iowa job.

Rumored candidates for Minnesota include Niko Medved (CO St., from MN), Ben Jacobson (N. Iowa), Ryan Saunders (Flip’s son & former TWolves head coach), McCollum & Darian DeVries (WV, from Iowa)

DeVries has a $9.3 million buyout & is making $2.9 million/yr. I bet he wishes he would have stayed another year at Drake but he couldn’t turn down a big contract. He may have been able to pick between Iowa & Minnesota if he waited.

Medved would be a slam dunk. Huge fan of his. Mountain West is a great conference.

McCollum has been rumored for the Iowa job for a couple months. Not sure how our local news guys picked up on, but I have read it more than once.
