Why doesn't Billie Gillispie's name ever come up for DePaul?

He's talking with Houston for $500k/per and DePaul could certainly go over that, he's an ace at rebuilding programs, he usually doesn't stay long enough to get caught for whatever cheating he's doing, he's a name, and he'd increase tax revenue on liquor sales.

That's who they should get.

I think Billy is too DUI-y.

Per the ginger haired "genius", Reggie Theus is interviewing with the Demons on Thursday.


Rush Street Reggie is back!

Isiah Thomas is interested in the vacant DePaul coaching position, a source close to the Hall of Fame guard told the Tribune on Thursday.

Thomas is the head coach at Florida International University and has a recruiting class that has been rated as high as 17th nationally. The source insists Thomas would be able to steer those recruits to DePaul if he were offered the job.

"Isiah also could recruit the Chicago kids. It has always been a fertile area," said the source.

Thomas grew up on the West Side and nearly went to DePaul after starring at St. Joseph. Instead of joining close friend Mark Aguirre at DePaul, Thomas chose Indiana, where he led Bobby Knight's Hoosiers to the 1981 NCAA title.

Named one of the 50 greatest players in NBA history, Thomas has been a head coach of the Indiana Pacers and New York Knicks, before joining the college ranks at FIU.

DePaul was scheduled to interview Reggie Theus for its vacant post on Thursday

rpb is wrong. Phil McCracken is useful.

RPB is right. You suck.

Also, by all accounts, a permanent black guy.

I was watching a bit of the Cubs game yesterday and then Chicago Tribune Live came on aftewards and I had it on as background noise as I was playing some NBA Live anyhow they had Kaplan on from Indianapolis talking about the DePaul situation and it was bizzare. He kept trying to sell how much confidence he has in Ponsetto and how it was a destination job and everything. The people on the panel were asking questions about how the prestige of the program has fallen and what have you but Kaplan had like pro DePaul talking points that he kept going back to like a politician. It was as about as unbiased as one of ZZ's Bears reports. Is he getting a check from DePaul or is he a grad or something?

Phil, I know that Laurence Holmes has made no secret of his affiliation with DePaul and as a graduate. Zach Zaidman went to Syracuse. Although Zach & LoHo are on the 670 The SCORE payroll, DePaul pays their salaries when they call all those losses on radio.

Hate to tell you this, but this guy's going to be another Ricky Byrdsong (as a local coach, that is).

WTF? You leave Clemson (a school with a prayer of tourney action) to come to DePaul?

There isn't a major college coach who doesn't know these guys very well and I am 100% sure every single one of them has their numbers in their cell phones. This includes most asst coaches as well.

These guys are the cleaner and corporate version of Sonny Vicaro,

They are the promoter of 6 major all star games for high school players and the NCAA Limits on gifts per events is a nice bonus per event. All tourneys are sponsored by Best Buy.
