Re: Michigan Coach

I seem to remember reading a few years back that Mike Montgomery took the
Golden State job specifically so he could stay on the west coast. I think
you can take him off the list. Plus, he has no recruiting ties outside that
area. Kruger has been in the Big Ten before with Illinois.

"According to ESPN.com's Andy Katz, some of the names that will be up
for consideration to replace Amaker would be Washington State coach
Tony Bennett, Southern Illinois coach Chris Lowery, former Golden
State Warriors coach Mike Montgomery, UNLV coach Lon Kruger, West
Virginia coach John Beilein as well as ESPN analysts Rick Majerus and
Steve Lavin. "

Crazy list to me... I can' t see John Beilein going. Bennett and
Lowery are the only "up and comers".
