Starting from scratch again. May not be so lucky this time.

Can we get his top assistant to stay?

I think I would consider Ben McCollum or Jerrod Calhoun.
Ben McCollum was Iowa second choice and now their top choice. They probably get him. I would go after Jerrod Calhoun considering we almost had him 2 years ago but he didn't like the risk of starting so close to the opening of the season.

4 coaches in 4 consecutive years..I see a pattern forming...
I see a fan pattern that has no idea.
Coaches last 4 Years
#1 Drunken and Racist Bob Huggins
#2 No Experience Josh Eilert
#3 1 year wonder Darian DeVries only 2.8 million

Buyout is expected to cost $6.15 million -- $4.67 million from his basketball contract in addition to other expenses, per the deal, such as paying the buyout from Drake that West Virginia paid and other expenses incurred in his hiring.

DeVries' deal with Indiana is for six years at nearly $5 million per season and very high NIL.
