April 8, 200917 yr One of the coaches that had a legit chance at the job appears to be out. McCaffrey signed an 8-yr extension with Sienna today. I may be reading too much into this.
April 8, 200917 yr I may be reading too much into this. Meaning? If you're saying he could still end up at XU I agree.

April 9, 200917 yr Many people like Chris Mack. Some think he may not be quite refined enough and may not just fit that "mold". I have heard Ricky Pitino Jr's name as a possibilty...he knows the A-10, coached at Duquesne. Masiello could be another but he has a little bit of a rep himself. Richard Pitino couldn't even get past the early rounds with BU having his dad as one of their most famous alum. He may be interested but that interest is unrequited.
April 9, 200917 yr I was told on Monday night that Mack was the top choice. That may be a stretch. IMO he will be the only assistant coach that gets an interview (and there is at least one other) that has a legit chance. I still think its probably a 2-man race.
April 10, 200917 yr I was told on Monday night that Mack was the top choice. I was also told that he was very high on the list. The reason given, besides him being a good young coach, is that since X is supposed to be a top-10 team, they want someone familiar with the current system, one who won't come in and change too much, if anything at all.
