Perhaps one of the two assistants who were recently let go at Kentucky? Jeff House and a female coach named Pillow?

| DOes anyone know what aspirations are for Shea Ralph and Marissa Mosley from UConn? I don't know ANYTHING about coaching so not sure if they are considered too novice for movement yet. I know Jamelle and Tonya have moved on with limited success...Does either of them have aspirations of a head coaching job? You guys always seem to be in the know.

I've been acquainted with Shalon Pillow for quite a few years. I just don't think she has the stuff for a head coaching job, at least not a big time one and not yet. Jeff House I know nothing of.

with an interim AD at Marquette, i am not sure they will get a big name head coach or a big time assistant coachmost Div. I coaches want to be hired by an AD they will be working with and not an interimmaybe a big name head coach who is desperate the coach would take the jobbut coaching in an urban setting is also harder to find that coachMU is not a great destination for women's basketball.
i would also think they will look for a like-minded coach as MU is a Catholic based faith institution.
i live in the Milwaukee area and you have to search the paper to find the article on her firingthe program was never really covered at all during Terri's yearsMU only cares about men's basketballthat is also why she lasted so long at MU, even though she did not have great success in the Big East.

If the paycheck is proper there will be interested candidates from coast to coast that want that job. I believe Mitchell was earning well over $200,000 dollars per year. Plus assistant coaches can always use Marquette as a stepping stone to get another Head coaching job.

Way more than that. As of 2012:

Williams base salary of $1,070,125 makes him Marquettes highest paid employee.

This is a really good job IMO where an established coach has a great chance to quickly elevate this program to the top of the new Big East. I'll be very interested to see where they go will this hire.

But that's after she was coaching at Marquette for 18 years. I have no idea what they are willing to pay a new coach coming in now.
And it's only been 2 days and I'm already going a little crazy b/c I have no idea who any likely candidates for the job might be.

And there's finally something about the coaching search in the local media but not one word about any candidates they are looking at - ugh!!!
http://www.jsonline.com/blogs/sports/256052641.html
I really don't think I'm going to hear about any candidates - I'll just find out who at least one candidate was when they announce the new hire.
I did find out one thing from the article - former Men's assistant Jerry Wainwright is 'caretaking' the program for now - I kind of wondered about that since the Marquette website had removed all the coaches already indicating all were gone.

| And one week after the blog post was made saying they were close to hiring someone, there has been no hire made and not one word about any potential candidate(s). I'm beyond banging my head against the wall about it at this point - ugh!!!

| I'm curious ... does the Sports Information Department at Marquette send out releases on the search, or are they just pretending it isn't happening?

I don't know of any releases on the search but I'm also just a fan and not a member of the media. The only thing I've seen about the coaching search was the blog entry saying they would likely hire a coach last week with no mention of any coaching candidates whatsoever. That didn't surprise me at all as there is no media coverage of the team - the blog entry was written by the MU men's beat reporter who I'm sure knows nothing about the Women's team. If the athletic department doesn't want to talk about something with the Women's team, they really don't have to since there is no media to question them about things.
If there was media coverage of the team, I think there would have been more written about why Mitchell was fired and especially why now. Something doesn't add up here and I'm not feeling very confident about this whole coaching search to begin with. And the fact that I cannot find one single candidate they have talked to makes me feel even worse.

| Reading on wbballhooopscoop that Toledo's Tricia Cullop turned down the job last week and that former MU player and current Miami assistant Carolyn Kieger has taken the job. I guess I will know soon enough...

| It does say something though that Cullop wouldn't leave Toledo (MAC) for Marquette (Big East)...kind of surprising.

Maybe they weren't offering enough $ - I'm guessing they weren't going to pay the new coach anywhere near what they were paying Mitchell. Or maybe there were other reasons...
