Coaching Carousel

>> Friday

It's that fun time of the year, where coaching paychecks(and said coaches stomachs) get a little bit fatter. This carousel will be the most exciting since 2003, for the simple fact that one of the crown jewel jobs, Kentucky, has now opened up after Tubby Smith finally admitted defeat and took the first train to Minnesota. A real intriguing opening is Michigan, since they may be this year's sleeping giant: a very nice tradition, excellent recruiting, and an AD that has plenty of patience. For those who like living in the middle of nowhere and recruiting farm boys, there's Iowa. Along the way, I think another couple of dominoes fall. Also, if you have any common sense, ignore Andy Katz.

Kentucky:
Predicted New Coach: Billy Donovan-Florida
Other Serious Candidates: Thad Matta-Ohio State, Billy Gillespie-Texas A&M
Others in the hunt: John Calipari-Memphis, Tom Crean-Marquette, Jay Wright-Villanova

Florida, should Donovan take the UK job:
Predicted New Coach: Anthony Grant-VCU
Other Serious Candidates: John Pelphrey-South Alabama, John Calipari-Memphis
Others in the Hunt: Gregg Marshall-Winthrop, Brad Brownell-Wright State

Michigan:
Predicted New Coach: John Beilein-West Virginia
Other Serious Candidates: Chris Lowery-Southern Illinois, Ernie Kent-Oregon
Others in the Hunt: Lon Kruger-UNLV, Dana Altman-Creighton

Iowa:
Predicted New Coach: Dana Altman-Creighton
Other Serious Candidates: Chris Lowery-Southern Illinois, Bruce Pearl-Tennessee
Others in the Hunt: Mark Turgeon-Wichita State

New iowa coach i think will be Chris Lowery Think iowa would have a tuff time getting Pearl away from TN Bruce In Iowa

Pearl's is Iowa first choice, and will offer him the big bucks, but I'm giving Pearl the common sense to realize winning at UT is a helluva lot easier than Iowa, especially when Calipari eventually leaves Memphis.
