West Liberty was not a D2 power before he took over. They fell one game short of 5 straight D2 Elite 8 appearances, and 2 wins shy of a fifth straight 30-win season. He also has had the D2 National POY 2 of the last 3 years.

Grantland did a feature on him a couple years ago.

That'd be a VERY interesting add. If he's going to go to the D1, it needs to be ASAP, though. He's already 59.

Yeah, it would be very intriguing. I doubt he's a serious candidate, and he's supposedly turned down DI offers before. However, I have wondered about with the possibility of the 30-second shot clock, we are interested in him as a potential assistant coach. But that potential rule change won't be known for sure until May.
