Shaka Smart to Marquette

[aughnanure]

As of 50 minutes past the hour, there is no national coverage of this. If true, why the secret? Nothing in the Richmond Times Dispatch as of 3 minutes ago either.

Be patient. It's coming soon.

If it's true it's huge. The fact that nothing national yet regarding it is interesting....

remember a few Marquette fans that called Havoc a gimmick. Wonder how they feel

MUTV (On-campus student media) Sports Director reporting he is hearing that there will be an announcement by 5PM Central Time today.

Everything I'm hearing is several schools including Wake and Marquette.

Let's all play a game and guess the ESPN headline. For an example take this article about Marquette and Howland with the header "Howland interested in job"

http://espn.go.com/mens-college-basketb ... en-howland


I'll go first:

"Smart leaves VCU"
"VCU's Shaka takes job"

[SCS]

"Shaka Staying put at VCU"

[marquette]

Strong indications are smart, but whoever winds up coming it should be announced around 5 (according to the campus media)

Sounds like Shaka gets a 6 year deal.

For what's it's worth:

Shaka Smart will be the next Head Coach at Marquette. #SALUTE

Has anything happened with this? I am still not seeing anything on it in Cincy area?
