This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.
Important notes on articles:
- Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
- Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
- If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

All I saw was Skim Milkey (edited) by Raoul
Which appears to be Berube of Princeton and Gillespie of Illinois State.
Decent choices if down to those two. I suspect they want someone who might stay if successful (i.e. older than Duffy).
Not surprised all candidates were women. The AD knows Muffet well and is no doubt influenced that way by her.
EDIT: Anonymous Eagle says the one that looks like Berube is actually the Charlotte coach, a former Marquette assistant. I would consider that a terrible hire. Consuegara makes about $220K and Gillespie $260K. They are clearly looking to save some money if those are the final two. Gillespie has been much more successful.
