One year too late. The obvious choice is now Michigan’s HC. IU will fail once again in its search.

Men’s College Basketball Coaching Hot Seat Watch

Examining the big names who likely won’t see another season and those who may depart on their own terms.

Miami Hurricanes​

"There’s been plenty of industry speculation here about New Mexico Lobos coach Richard Pitino, who has spent time in the state as an assistant under Billy Donovan and later as the head coach of the FIU Panthers. But a number of other top mid-major names could be involved, and a lateral move from a sitting high-major coach shouldn’t be ruled out either."

Virginia Cavaliers ​

"Tony Bennett’s sudden retirement weeks before the season put the Cavaliers in a tough spot, and interim coach Ron Sanchez has taken UVA to just a 11–12 record. New blood is needed here, as is a modernization of the Cavs’ operations offensively after years of Bennett’s grind-it-out system. In state, there’s the vcu Rams’ Ryan Odom, who might have the A-10’s best team this season and famously beat UVA as the UMBC Retrievers coach in 2018."

Florida State Seminoles ​

"The school announced Monday that Leonard Hamilton will resign at the end of the season, a move that has been widely expected for months. Hamilton, 76, was on his way to a fourth straight season missing the NCAA tournament. FSU seems like a strong personality fit for Will Wade, who’s widely expected to be in play for multiple big jobs this cycle. Other sharp recruiters like the High Point Panthers’ Alan Huss and Arkansas State Red Wolves’ Bryan Hodgson could also make sense. Florida State also has a significant alumni base now working in the NBA, such as Sam Cassell and Luke Loucks who could look into making the jump to college. Loucks played for Hamilton and is now an assistant with the Sacramento Kings."
