Pearl isn't going to Auburn, he may get the opportunity to coach his alma-matter.

Doug Gottlieb just said on Knoxville radio that based on who he's talked to he thinks Pearl will wait one more year.

Pearl and Stansbury aren't gonna make it.

John Brady
Currently: Arkansas State (90-82)
@LSU: (192-139) (1 final4, 1 sweet16)

I heard there were reports of this being a possibility early this morning.

Wojo...but he's likely waiting to step into the head role at Duke when Coach K leaves.

ETA: White @ LaTech has a decent record, though he is pretty young and he did win back-to-back Conf Champ...

I can't see him not having that job, already, he handles many of the HC responsibilities, the one you will notice is dealing with the media during the game.
Even if he doesn't, going to Auburn isn't going to help him get it in the future.

i don't see phil jackson or coach k on your list.

Roy Williams is begging for the job

Sir Charles isnt on there either unfortunately

Michael White is the best choice from that list outside of Pearl

Same things were said about Chris Collins, who used to handle a lot of the HC responsibilities, but he left to take over a pretty bad Northwestern program.
In the end, though, I agree that most any SEC except for maybe UK or UF would not be able to hire Wojo away from Duke. I think he stays unless a major program comes calling.

waiting one more year makes sense for pearl, imo... some nice jobs could come available... UT could tell martin to take a hike after he struggles next year.... same for grant at alabama (assuming he wants to stay in the sec).

I agree.
per AJC
quote:
White is a young guy -- he turned 37 on March 2 -- so he should be able to connect with players students and bring some excitement to the program. He spent four years in Alabama as an assistant at Jacksonville State, and he was on the Ole Miss staff for seven seasons before getting his first head coaching job. The Bulldogs have won back-to-back conference titles and are 52-13 in the last two years under him. Auburn has swung and miss with hot mid-major coaches before -- ahem, Tony Barbee -- but aside from his relative lack of experience, there isn't a lot of apparent downside to White.

Because it's a dead end.
