Several coaches feeling heat

Two years after a Final Four appearance, John Brady didn't last past Valentine's Day at LSU. Oregon State axed Jay John on his way to the Pac-10's first winless season. San Francisco's Jessie Evans was told to, ahem, take "a leave of absence." It's not even March yet, and already nine coaches have left. In college basketball, administrators and fans have short memories and shorter patience. Norm Roberts (St. John's), Tim Welsh (Providence), Bill Carmody (Northwestern), Jeff Lebo (Auburn) and Ernie Kent (Oregon) are all under fire.

Bill Carmody? Jeez, what do you want from the guy? He's at Northwestern. You need a 120 ACT score and a IQ of 200 just to get into that school. He runs a clean program. If you want a basketball factory hire a "coach" like Kelvin Sampson.

Jeff Lebo , Auburn Fans, do you really want Cliff Back ??? sure Cliff gives you one winning year out of 4 while he plays golf and thinks about Jucos, the other 3, but Jeff Lebo is building you a Clean, Progressive Program that will last for Eons if you let him. If you Auburn Tigers will let him finish what he has started

I go to Oregon and nobody has even mentioned firing Ernie, fire kent if he can't make it to the tournament next year.

Ernie is a decent recruiter but poor game time tactician. It bothers me how he blames the players when the team loses and not himself.
