The last rumor I heard was they were trying to get a guy who was known more for throwers and bringing in international athletes. He will help them win Big 12 but won't coach PV.

Vanderville was rehired. He's a volunteer coach at Oregon.

Dang shame about Tom, I only worked with him briefly. Although couldn't agree more about ousting two 'co-head' coaches...bad approach to running/leading a team.
