I dont think it’s totally far fetched in the event Beard says no. The fact IU had to hire Mike Woodson means this is potentially a really bad year to make a hire. His name carries weight amongst some fans, I know he came up last year in a few rumors. The Loyola choke job may be too much to get high up the list though

I can think of probably at least 5 reasons off the top of my head Underwood wouldn’t get the Texas job that have absolutely nothing to do with Loyola. The Loyola loss would rank last in the reasons not to hire Underwood.

Beard and Drew. Almost certainly those are the top two names on their list. I could possibly see Beard turning them down. Drew strikes me as an opportunist who would quickly jump at the offer.

yeah I don't think Drew is going anywhere, especially Austin considering his love for Jesus and he built Baylor to be a better job than Texas anyway

Have you heard the Chris Beard story?  ;D

If they don’t get Beard or Drew, who gets called next? There isn’t really anything close to an obvious choice. Musselman and/or Oats but I don’t think the outside world views them better than Underoonie.

The point is, for Underwood to get offered by Texas, they’d probably have to get a “no” from AT LEAST a half dozen other coaches. That ain’t happening. It’s not a slam on Underwood that he’d be like #12 on their coaching list. It’s a good thing that the thought of him taking a coveted job isn’t totally ludicrous.

My guess is they’d call Pitino or try to poach Cal. I see Musselman and Oats as back end 2nd tier options. Just a guess. I think after Shaka bombing they are going to pretty hell bent on getting a fairly proven commodity.

Sure, if they include Brad Stevens or Coach Cal-like pie in the sky names. If it’s an actual realistic search for a non-blue blood job then his name and geographic background/experience would make a top 5 let’s talk list

Calipari ain't going anywhere dude come on, why not put Phil Jackson or Greg Popovich on the list of names while you're at it

Yeah he’s gonna keep you going for at least the next 5 pages if you just don’t reply, “ok, you’re right.”

Stevens isn’t going to Texas. Cal, probably isn’t, but I wouldn’t rule it out completely. Cal’s always been a Gypsy and leaves before his welcome is worn out. It would be a great way to rejuvenate his brand and they’d be foolish not to look into him if their first couple choices don’t pan out. They can certainly afford him.

If Beard or Drew don’t work out, my gut says Pitino gets the next call. He’d definitely take it.

Because one is only unlikely, while the other two are completely ludicrous.

But yes, I think Pitino gets a call before Cal. You basically get the same thing for half the price.

pretty sure they don't want a 70 year old guy with tons of baggage and scandals under his belt

I was actually shocked to find out he was coaching this year, I thought he was banned from NCAA basketball LOL

it wouldn't surprise me to see him get interviewed or hired though
