Multiple outlets are reporting that IUPUI has fired Todd Howard after 3 seasons.
What is weird is several are reporting he is still in North Dakota with the team at his league tournament. Talk about awkward if true. So they will have a new coach and new arena next year. Will be interesting to see who they hire as you can't get much more momentum going into a new season if you make the right one.
As mentioned in another thread, Auburn fired Tony Barbee.
South Florida fires Stan Heath, who besides taking Kent St to the Elite Eight back in 2002 has done nothing, yet keeps landing HC jobs.
I know it is a similar coaching style, but a guy I would like State to go after if Lansing were to go elsewhere would be Dan Dakich. He is a big name that has very strong Indiana ties and now having traveled all over with ESPN has more National recognition. Those ties would give him a leg up on recruiting and you would thing kids would like a chance to play for a guy they have seen share his knowledge on tv.
