I would add that of the 4 or 5 high-profile openings, we probably are in the best position financially combined with the best context.

Cal was probably a non-starter cuz Howland burned all his AAU bridges there. Tenner has money problems and was looking for an up and comer/sacrificial lamb. That leaves Wake and Marquette. Howland was apparently a finalist for the Marquette job. Not sure why Wake didn't take a look.

I would say that I wouldn't hire Howland without a full recounting of what happened with regards to 1) Shabazz Muhammad's recruiting and 2) the discipline issues surrounding Reaves and a few other Crip wannabes on the team. And then get some independent verification of it and have Howland give you a decently developed remediation plan where appropriate.
