So, who is left? This is what we have heard and can be verified in terms of interest between coach and school.
May - Michigan
Schertz - Louisville
Smith - Stanford
Sprinkle - Washington
AAR - zero interest in VU thankfully
Mack
McMillian
Kelsey (was a candidate at Louisville)
Lower tier:
Casey Alexander
Mitch Henderson
So, here's the big problem staring at VU: what happens with Cal?
If Cal is fired, how does that affect other coaches and the dominoes that may fall?
Nate Oates? Who replaces Nate Oates?
Scott Drew? Who replaces Scott Drew?
Mark Pope? BYU - not a huge program, so not worried about our candidates.
Bruce Pearl? Who replaces Pearl at Auburn?
Billy Donovan? (no dominoes)
I think Vanderbilt would do well to get a coach in place as soon as possible - even today - before other dominoes start to fall as a result of Cal getting fired.
