Reggie Theus went 9-24 at Cal St Northridge this year.

I think the whole "connection to the Public League" thing is overrated. DePaul just needs to hire a good coach. Sure it is important that whomever it is develops good relationships with Public League coaches, as well as coaches from throughout the region.

Don't get me wrong. They need to recruit better talent, so a young guy with some energy is very important. But there are a lot of ways to build a good program there.
