Do we have a short list?

[emmitt01]

I'm not talking about a list of coaches that our fans think are likely, I wanna know if RV has a short list. And no, assuming that he "must" isn't acceptable. When the LSU job, the SMU job an the TCU job opened the lists of "names we're hearing" were almost instantaneous. Does NT really have a de facto drag your feet policy as it seems?

T-Mac said Friday he already heard two well-known names, but was sworn to double secrecy.

For the love of GOD let this be a quick search. Let's not drag this out. Have the man in charge gather the troops and get everyone back on the same page ASAP

With the women's opening Rick took a week to gather resume's and to define exactly what they were looking for. Then a second week for interviews. One interview was last weeks and supposedly a second one was this weekend.

I would think the men's search would be similar. It could go quicker if a well-known or a slam-dunk resume comes across RV's desk.

As for those slam-dunk resumes,I'm still hoping that Vito reports soon that Matt Daniel is being considered for the women's position. He mentioned Daniel a little while back, and even quoted him if I remember right, but haven't heard anything since.

I have a feeling the new men's coach will be someone that none of us have even thought about.

Eustachy was named at Colorado State last week.

Speaking of former OU coaches, Kelvin Sampson has a very impressive resume...I doubt we could lure him away from the Houston Rockets though, and he comes with a dumpster full of baggage.

EDIT: Apparently I wasnt the first on here to think that...

Capel?

I could get behind that possibility.

Capel?

I could get behind that possibility.

Capel is certainly an interesting name and something I could live with because he's from the Coach K school and mold and he's still really young I think. Tho from my recollection he was pretty meh when he didn't have Blake Griffin on his teams.

[CMJ]

He did really well at VCU though? I'd be very on board with Capel.

[Green92]

That's the way bb go.

Of course he has a short list and I'll bet he's working every angle he can.

Well, being saddled with NCAA restrictions from when Sampson was there doesn't help. But he did convince 3 five-star recruits to go to OU to play basketball, so he can obviously recruit. Having Griffin definitely doesn't hurt, but he was the one that got him to go there.

Would you say you are comfortably numb to this rumor?
