The chances of Mark Turgeon returning to coach the Wichita State men’s basketball team, a job he left some 16 years ago, are likely extinguished.

Multiple sources with knowledge of the situation informed The Eagle that Turgeon has told others he has declined a job offer from WSU athletic director Kevin Saal on Sunday and has removed himself from consideration.

Speculation about a possible reunion gained steam immediately following Saturday’s decision by Saal to fire Isaac Brown one day after the Shockers wrapped up their season.

Maybe an outside shot at Jans because I think Wichita is probably a better job than the 8th or 9th best job in the SEC.

Right, but it's not like Kelvin is retiring tomorrow. Might be the right move to go run his own program for a while.

A guy who posts on the MSU board and clearly has connections based on the accuracy of some of his past predictions/ statements has said that Devries already has a P-5 gig lined up , signed and sealed. I don't always agree with this guy, but that's not about the info he gets, just some of how he views things. We'll know fairly soon I guess .
