    New Arkansas coach......

    apparently none other than Creighton coach (and former Kansas State coach) Dana Altman. KStatePike or any other KSU fans on the board, discuss.

    Wow....

    Dana's a solid coach, but his name doesn't have quite the splash that it seemed like a lot of Pig fans wanted...

    After 1 solid year at Kent State.

    He did pretty much nothing at Arkansas except recruit relatively well. He needed to go. I don't know if Dana Altman's the answer, though. My Pig friend says he's glad it's him instead of Cal. I think he's insane.

    I follow the Hogs, too, and I agree that Heath had to go. And I would rather have a slimy John Calipari than someone like Dana Altman.
    Ironically, Heath apparently has taken the South Florida job.

    Re: New Arkansas coach......

    Altman had a good situation up in Creighton. Seems like a little bit of a reach by Arkansas, he didn't do well at KSU at all and is credited as the one who started the downfall of our bball program. He's not a bad guy, it just didn't work out here. Something tells me #1-9 on Arkansas' coaching search turned them down.

    I am deriving a great deal of entertainment from the implosion of the Bluejay nation. That being said, Altman is a good coach, but Creighton is in world of hurt as the successor on staff took the Indiana State job, and Altman is taking the whole staff, and potentially the AD as well, with him. The will be very young next year. The word is that the other Sutton boy is high on the Jays list of replacments.

    Tulsa news said Scott Sutton is a likely choice for Creighton. I hope so, this would give my boy Tom Hankins the ORU job.

    There's already a rumor floating that if Sutton goes, James Dickey will get offered the ORU job.
