In response to rbg
You all know more than me, but it did seem that the old AD and interim AD often looked at D3 coaches for men's and women's basketball. Maybe this recent episode will lead them to a D1 hire.
Koclanes was taken off American University's bench. At the time, it seemed like a nice hire. AU was a solid program (the former AU head coach is now at Wake Forest). Koclanes also had international experience.
I can't remember if Sheehy (re)-hired Cormier. But he came from the NBA.
True, Sheehy hired McLaughlin. He came from D-III. And Roby hired Shibles. She came from D-III.
Given Harrity's background, I think its a safe bet that he takes a D-I assistant looking to captain her own ship. Yes, the program needs a serious re-build. Yes, there are recruiting challenges. But it's got to be easier than Shibles made it look...
This will also be Harrity's first big decision as AD (making McCorkle interim head coach in football was a no-brainer). Should be very interesting to see the direction he chooses...
