Fraschilla and Marquette associate coach Tony Benford interviewed last week to replace Johnny Jones, who left to be the head coach at LSU. Fraschilla, who has been involved in other jobs since he left coaching, including the College of Charleston this spring, would accept the North Texas job if offered, according to a source. ...

Fraschilla coached Division I basketball for 23 years, going 175-100 and coaching in the NCAA tournament in 1993 and '95 at Manhattan and '98 with St. John's.
