kwyjibo Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 Micah Shrewsberry, former Purdue (Painter) and Butler (Stevens) assistant, and current Celtics (Stevens) assistant, had his second interview and is the leading candidate (no public offer yet). They have also talked to Seth Greenberg. So they can have a smart guy or Greenberg. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taj79 Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 Interesting that Mike Lewis had asked for a scholarship release and is now "rethinking" it. There are a lot of schools in the A10 where coaches go to die. Duquesne is one of them. going to be interesting to se how they doctor up the Convention Center for two years of the Dukes playing there. Guess PPG Arena too big?

I'm not sure how far along he was in the process, but yes all reports were that he was heading for Akron before Ford out-hustled the Zips.

UTC's top three 3 scorers are all graduating. They were recruited by the previous two coaches. If I was McCall, I'd be trying to get the hell out of there too.

He's gonna owe them some coin for his reneging ($1M ish), which is why I assumed he had backed out for another job... but who knows https://www.google.com/amp/amp.masslive.com/v1/articles/20377086/umass_ad_ryan_bamford_pat_kels.amp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder how much he wants and where that money will come from. I'd say if he doesn't ask for a cool million, he has no confidence in himself.
