I don't think McCollum is realistic for SIU. I wouldn't be shocked if he's Drake-bound if DeVries leaves.

Drake's promoting from within (Marty Richter) if DeVries leaves.

That would be my hope.
Back to SIU, I hear they've interviewed the Youngstown State coach

Then they better invest hardcore in NIL. Trilly has said several times that Youngstown is a massive outlier in NIL dollars. You'd be shocked what they're spending to still not win the Horizon League.

Calhoun would be a solid hire, hope they can get that one done

Calhoun would play a fun style and he has some energy that SIU fans could get behind.
Youngstown isn't a place anyone wants to be, so I'd consider that when evaluating him.
SIU could do worse. The question is if they can do better.

They can definitely do better if they brought back Saluki HoF coach and Big 10 assistant coach of the year Chris Lowery to lead the team once again. He led them to the sweet 16 during his previous reign and could do even better if given another chance. I know he will lead a team to several national titles one day and I hope it's at SIU. Northwestern has a tough match up today in the tourney so if they fall, maybe we could hear good news of his return tomorrow.

Absolutely! I know Bulldog fans (as well as fans of all other teams in the conference) don't want this to happen as SIU would likely win at least 80% of the conference championships for the foreseeable future. However, the conference gains notoriety when it hires a coach of this nature and SIU is back in high regard nationally once again!
