Look for Xavier assistant Travis Steele to be in mix at Northern Kentucky, source told ESPN. Strong recruiting ties in area.

Good chance NKU looks at Xavier assistant Travis Steele.

Thanks guys, i updated the list.

Holy Cross has hired Bill Carmody (Princeton, Northwestern).

Also, Fordham fired Tom Pecora.

And there will be an opening at Syracuse in three years!

I think it'll be sooner(really think it happens this year quite frankly!)

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

Unless there is a buyout of some sort I don't think it really changes anything. Just gives Archie a little more leverage, which is good I guess.

I always felt it was understood by the schools, that the extensions were always needed to help coaches recruit. "I'm contracted till 2022. I'm not going anywhere"
