2025-26 College basketball coaching carousel

Makes sense for McCaffery. He played there and was an assistant there. Good place to return to, and a less-pressurized place for him to (presumably) finish out his career.

They'll probably hire him. UNT has been solid under Hodge. His teams play very tough defense. WVU could do a whole lot worse.

Some of these hires seem to be as much about what players will come with you as any coaching acumen. Makes for a tough market for assistants looking to take over above the poverty program levels.

No NIL to mess with because the Ivys opted out of the House settlement, and you get to play in one of the greatest basketball arenas in the country. The Ivy League recruits itself.

And Hodge replaced Grant McCasland, who won the NIT at North Texas then was hired by Texas Tech.

Just use Coach AF … oh, wait …

Just call him Ali like all the CSU fans have been doing for years now!

Funny story, back in the day I had a little tradition of going to first round sites every year (It lasted six seasons). I was front and center for his famous shot. And I was just messing around with this news and found a photo of me there. In front of Northern Iowa warming up for their first round game. Wearing a CSU shirt.

Some weird destiny there.

And the broadcasters.
