Out: Luke Yaklich
Yaklich, who had a stout rep as a defensive tactician when he was hired, is out after four seasons and a 47-70 record. The Flames made the jump from the Horizon League to the Missouri Valley in Yaklich's third year but went 8-32 in league play after transitioning. The program was a victim the past two years in the transfer portal cycle. A source said Monday that a former power-conference head coach from the Midwest has been contacted for this job.

That statement sounds very Bruce Weber-y. There’s others like Tom Crean, but they’ve also coached P5s in other parts of the country.
Watch Weber decline but recommend Dee Brown.
