The college basketball coaching carousel is in full swing as March Madness kicks off, with speculation running rampant about potential coaching moves.
One of the hottest names on the market is Florida Atlantic coach Dusty May, who has led his team to consecutive March Madness appearances. May, with an impressive record at FAU, is being linked to coaching vacancies at top programs like Louisville, Michigan, and Vanderbilt.
Despite the distractions caused by the rumors, May remains focused on leading FAU in this year's NCAA Tournament. The Owls, seeded eighth, are set to face Northwestern in the East Region.
Coaching changes have already taken place at schools like Ohio State, where Chris Holtmann was fired, and UConn, which saw Dan Hurley take over in 2018. Hurley emphasized the importance of staying focused on coaching through the distractions until the season is over.
Other coaches, such as James Madison's Mark Byington and Utah State's Danny Sprinkle, are also being mentioned in connection with coaching vacancies at various schools.
May's players commend him for his communication skills and focus on the game, regardless of the coaching rumors swirling around him. They are determined to make their NCAA Tournament run special, regardless of what the future holds for their coach.
As the coaching carousel continues to turn, college basketball fans are eagerly watching to see where these talented coaches will end up next.
