Drake coach Keno Davis has agreed in principle to take the Providence job.


According to sources close to the situation, Davis will be introduced at a news conference at 5 p.m. on Tuesday afternoon.


One source said that Davis will sign a seven-year deal that will pay him about $1 million per year.


Davis, the AP's National Coach of the Year, met with Providence on Monday and finalized the decision earlier this morning.

Definitely the down side to having a successful year.

Good for him. Him and The Dawgs had an amazing season, I feel for Drake fans but it's hard to turn down a million per season and a chance to coach in the Big East.

Nevermind the fact that if it doesn't work out he's built up a nice little nest egg. It's not like he won't find another coaching gig somewhere with his lineage.

Works for me... get him out of the conference and bring on instability in the Drake program. LOL
