I didn't know much about Dunlap except he is alumni and he ran an excellent program at Metro State. I think he over played his hand at Arizona. And now he is going to eat a big slice of humble pie. From what I heard he turned LMU down twice. So enjoy that pie Mikey...you can't go from a D2 program to demanding to be head coach of a Pac 10 team.  Ironlions, I would not be slapping Mike Dunlap around like that. Mike was interviewed not to long ago to be the head coach for the Chicago Bulls. I think Mike is quite qualified to be a head coach in the Pac-10 or any other conference for that matter. www.rockymountainnews.com/news/2008/may/05/nuggets-dunlap-interviews-for-bulls-vacancy/ |

Mike is currently making $397,000 in his current position at Arizona. I suspect that Mike will leave at the end of the season when a new head coach comes on and wipes the coaching decks clean. Arizona will be forced to pay out the rest of the years remaining on Mike's contract. Mike walks away with some good change and takes a head coaching position. Just my guess.

3 recruits have already decommitted from UofA sports.espn.go.com/ncb/news/story?id=3667137Gaddy, Hill, Moser all look elsewhere after Olson retirementUpdated: October 27, 2008, 3:10 PM ET Three recruits who had committed to the University of Arizona have decided to re-open the recruiting process thanks to the resignation of Lute Olson last week. Abdul Gaddy, Solomon Hill and Mike Moser have all told Arizona media sources that they will look elsewhere now that Olson has retired. He left the program unexpectedly last Thursday. The Wildcats now have no players committed for the November signing period. Gaddy was the second-ranked point guard (and No. 14th overall) in the ESPNU 100. Moser, a 6-8 forward, is ranked 18th at his position. Hill is the No. 21 forward. "We just kind of sat back and watched it," his father, Abdul Gaddy Sr., told the Arizona Daily Star. "It seemed like they didn't know what direction they were going to be going in. There was nothing concrete there." Gaddy is now considering UCLA and Washington. Hill, from Los Angeles, is considering hometown USC, among other schools. Moser, from Portland, Ore., joined Hill in decommitting last week. Arizona could also lose juniors Chase Budinger and Jordan Hill to the NBA draft after this season. |
