McCollum

honestly i don't see him going to wv even if they offer more on the nil side of things. if iowa is available, as long as he gets paid decently (which he will) all the intangibles pertaining to location, stability, and conference are in our favor.
You referring to the Voice of the Mountaineers?
They also had a bunch of misinformation about Devries.
Chatter = Wishful thinking.
Don't believe anything you hear at this point.
Futile until it's done

I did the same Google search you did. Those articles are all just stating the obvious that he would be a good candidate as WVA is currently searching. There’s no indication in any of them that things are in process in anyway. You were probably sucked in by one of the misleading headlines that said he would be the next West Virginia coach. The body of the article is nothing more than speculation that he should be leading candidate. It was a third tier Internet sports site, obviously trolling for clicks.
If you’ve got a choice to go to a B1G school or a Big12 school, unless it’s Kansas or Houston, no one’s picking the Big12 school.
Did not Google anything just mentioned what I saw on ESPN and read on maybe 247 sports. Not trying to to stir the pot-sheesh
I gotcha but it’s no secret that West Virginia would like to have him. Nothing groundbreaking news about that.
There is an article in Indy paper where they indicate Devrie's agent had been in discussions with Indiana since the middle of the B1G Conference season. If Indiana AD was talking to Devries agent since then, it wouldn't be surprising that Beth would be working out details of a possible contract with McCollum's agent for awhile because going the Devries route was going to be expensive.
Beth fired Fran as soon as the season was over and I doubt it was a sudden epiphany. MCollum was mentioned very earlly by some posters on this board for McCollum as replacement for Fran.
I like our odds of getting McCollum, but if not, I don't mind a no name Div2 type hire as long as the reasoning for the hire has been well thought out by Beth and her pal Brad.

I only believe what the Iowa Burner Network is saying
If a dude was born in Morgantown, WV and was coaching another team in WV and there was a coaching vacancy at Iowa and WV, the chatter would be the dude was going to coach WV, not Iowa. Fortunately for the Iowa Hawkeyes, this case is totally reversed right now.
Not worried about WV getting McCollum over Iowa. A lot of worry out there. No need. McCollum won't fear the Iowa job like others, he knows he can coach.

ESPN wouldn’t know any more that people on this site.
I’ve read in a couple of spots that I actually will be named coach next week.
I’ll have to take my cans and bottles back first to get you some NIL money but you’re in!
I forgot the "if you can afford me" qualifier. My bad.
