    Also Dean Oliver, current Wisconsin Assistant would be a good up and comer. He can recruit too. He is from Iowa.

      Jake stated today that Seth is responsible for the offense and that PJ & Eric are running the defense. He said this was obviously a big step up in responsibilities whereas last year he was in the background supporting Kyle on the offensive side.

        I saw that on Saturday as well. He’s more active than the others (which may just be the fact he has the off). In addition, he’s doing interviews with the media now (linked elsewhere). That’s a strong indication of developing him for the seat, here or elsewhere.

          How about Bobby Knight and/or Juwan Howard, thus making more of a mockery of the entertainment vs. university necessity that I harp about?

            Didn't the last "Drake Sensation" not really turn out to be much of a sensation after all?

              I hadn’t heard that former Panther Brian Jones went from Asst at ISU-red to interim head coach. Before now was wondering if he’d be a potential interview candidate

                He was 190-217 over 14 years as head coach at North Dakota and did not develop a positive reputation for his interactions with other coaches and players.

                His days as a candidate to be a Division I head coach are long gone at this point. He got the interim tag because he was the only one on staff that had been a head coach at any level. He's not a candidate for that job either.

                  I knew his record, but had not heard that part.

                    Yeah. Not well liked in the Summit - at all.

                    They fired him and they guy that replaced him as gone has gone 15-18 (7-9) 9-17 (8-8) 6-25 (2-16)....and most everyone in Grand Forks and that would deal with the program are still happier now than they were.

                      Wondering out loud about the possible future dynamics of Tuttle in the role of HC. Being married to the daughter of one of the larger UNI donors. That would be an interesting wrinkle for an AD to consider.

                        If he ends up being a great coach, it’s great. More likely to stay for a long time. If he doesn’t, it would be tougher to move on.
                        Give him responsibilities and see how he does.
