Glad somebody mentioned the Wake job. Think they talk to Porter. Guys lime Bielein are out there too.
I highly doubt they even call Porter.
I think Beilein would jump at this isn't getting any younger; plus he apparently wants to get back into the college ranks to help rehab his son's image. Forbes at ETSU (former Wichita St. assistant and Illinois St. assistant under Porter) would be a good hire. As would Odom at UMBC (whose father coached at Wake), Tim Duncan (duh), and Wes Miller at UNC-Greensboro (father is on the board of trustees and donated the money to build their practice facility).
There are a slew of others in that area who would take the job and do it for far less than Porter, which probably means something considering the ludicrous buyout. The rumor out there is Wes Miller's dad coughed up a sizeable chunk of that buyout, and will be the next head coach there. Spending $15 million while the world is on fire so your son can coach basketball in the ACC is father of the year material.
