Jordan Fee has turned Gannon’s DII program around in just a year. They are 26-2 this season after a bad losing season. He looks like the young coach we need. Unlike the reaches to Parrotta and Marbach in the past, this guy has proven his ability as a head coach.

I would not give up on Patrick Beilein as he has paid heavily for his sins and deserves a second chance.

Forget about Patsos and Grasso as they are bad news.

I love the idea of Fee. 35 years old, energetic, from Erie originally, played at Grove City. Was an assistant at D2 powerhouse Nova Southeastern. As mentioned by Griffine, he has completely turned Gannon around. And they have scored 100+ points in 15 of their wins including 146 against Penn St. DuBois.

I'll throw in Central Connecticut's Patrick Sellers (base salary of $150,000) who has turned that program completely around in 3 years. Won the regular season Northeast Conference title this year. A former Central Connecticut player, however, so he may not have any interest.

Probably not a realistic target and he makes nearly 400k at Norfolk State but Robert Jones wins every year. An NYC guy who has taken them to two NCAA's and an NIT and they're the top seed in this year's MEAC tournament.

I'd still like to see them kick the tires on current George Mason and former Bona assistant Steve Curran - an outstanding recruiter. St. John's assistant Bob Walsh interviewed when Baron was hired - but it would take a lot to pull him away from the Johnnies. I still think Steve DeMeo at Northwestern Florida JC should get a look. NYC guy and UB graduate who was at Iona with Tim Welsh and led NWF to the national championship game last year. NWF is loaded again this season and currently ranked 9th in the nation. Not necessarily the youngest guys but all 3 would absolutely get players.
