Jim Christian will become the new head coach at TCU. Christian recorded 6 straight 20 win seasons at Kent State. He did a terrific job of keeping the ball rolling after Gary Waters and Stan Heath used the job as a springboard. It is still a springboard as Christian will double his salary at TCU. His new paycheck will be over $500,000.
Also, Tony Bennet appears to be the top candidate at Indiana. His performance with Washington State has been remarkable. However, with his three core players all graduating now might be the best opportunity to move. History shows that a program like Washington State is next to impossible to maintain at the current success level. There are not enough players close by to draw from. At Indiana you have a very fertile recruiting ground.
Indiana officials say they will have a coach in place by the final four.
Also, Jaimie Dixon, Pittsburgh, has said no to Cal.
