Head Coach Job Openings List...

Miller is going back home after next season: Pitt Panthers.

Dayton is a great job for Archie right now. The program is 5-2 in the tourney in past two years, which is better than most teams in the country. When you factor in one of the best fan bases in the country (just ask Providence) and the fact that he has a very good chance to go to the tourney every year and advance, there are only a couple of programs he would possibly leave for. Just ask Brian Gregory how that P5 job is working out.

another opening- Tyndall was just fired at Tennessee this morning.

Oregon's head coach is on the Hot Seat, don't know if Archie would want to go up against his brother, but it would be hard to turn down Nike Money.

Um, Oregon's coach won Pac 12 Coach of the Year this year. They've made the NCAA tourney three straight years including a S16. Some of his players got in trouble, but they're all gone now. Altman won't be going anywhere.

Dayton just announced Archie Miller signed another extension to 2022, so hopefully all of those rumors will quiet down..

Literally all this means is that Dayton will get a bit of a nicer payday when Archie moves on.

I think Archie is going to wait another year though and hope that Dixon doesn't make the Tourney next year. If for some reason the landscape changes a bit though IU and Texas would obviously be possibilities. Archie definitely in a great position to wait and pick his spot.

Tyndall has been fired at Tennessee after just one season. Infractions must have been really really bad for an SEC team to fire you!

Why do people always think that the Miller's are dying to coach at Pittsburgh? I get that they are from there but is there any insider information that causes people to believe this? That was always the thought process with Sean, and he never would have left Xavier for Pittsburgh. I would be absolutely shocked if Archie left for Pitt. I think he is totally fine at Dayton until a top 10 - 15 job opens up and that school makes a serious push for him.

Dayton isn't some scummy job that Archie is trying to leave. They have proven they can have success, they can get decent recruits, they have a great fanbase, they have good facilities, they can pay the man. Why would he leave for a top 50ish job? Why would he go to an ACC school where he can hope to finish 4th every year behind Duke, UNC, and Louisville (assuming Syracuse is taking a step back or every school would be hoping for 5th)?

Going to Pitt qould be a demotion for Archie. I don't think he wants a demotion.

Pretty fair post here by a Xavier fan (I assume).

Supposedly, off the VCU message board, Shaka just turned down 3 million a year at Alabama. No way to verify that other then by a tweet someone posted but if true, it further reinforces the changing landscape of college basketball. There are the Top 15 programs (UK, UNC, Duke, Louisville, ect, ect, ect) and then the smaller schools are actually showing an advantage over some of the middling to lower end P5 schools. Any coach at a VCU, Dayton, Xavier, Witchita St, ect turning down 3 million a year to coach in the SEC would have been unheard of 10 years ago. But these coaches at many of these non P5 schools have every bit of a chance if not more to make a FF then they do at an Alabama or Tennessee.

Here's a decent article on coaching in the NCAA. Archie is mentioned a lot and Mack a few times.
