Tubby Smith is going to coach the Minnesota gophers. The University is the most winning basketball program of all time. Who is going to take his place next year?

Obviously any sane Kentucky fan is going to want Billy Donovan. And as far fetched as it sounds, he didn't sign a new contract with Florida because he wanted more money (which UK could offer him). At the same time though, I think he's going to end up in the NBA.
With that being said I live in Kentucky and have already heard the likes of Gillespie (Texas A&M), Barnes (Texas), and Calipari (Memphis) mentioned. Tom Crean (Marquette) is also a big name coming up. I'm not crazy about Crean, but I like Gillespie (I mean he beat in-state rival Louisville haha) and Barnes (who could obviously resolve the recruting issue).
Whomever it is, they need a decision before the first week of April given that's when signing days are for recruits.

Coach at Marquete, or B. Gillispe from A&M. You do not want Barnes from Texas, other than Durrant, he has done nothing. Barnes would be more of a step sideways. Call Donavan and back up your brinks truck and hope he takes it.
