5. What's the latest on the other big vacancies?

We addressed Indiana above, so we'll start with Marquette. The two names linked right away to the vacancy were Moser and Beilein, and I'd imagine those two will be heavily involved. Former Marquette coach and current Georgia boss Tom Crean is interested but unlikely to have a real shot at the job. As mentioned, Smart could have some interest if he's looking to leave Texas. Other names linked in the past have included Bradley's Brian Wardle, while Cleveland State's Gates could be involved.

DePaul's job has been open for a couple weeks, and it could have a decision soon. Sources told ESPN the university had more than 10 names on its interview list, including Detroit's Mike Davis, New York Knicks assistant Kenny Payne and Pacific's Damon Stoudamire. Payne and Moser have been the two names linked to this job for almost a year. Gates, given his Chicago ties, is involved and is perceived by some industry sources to be the favorite. This could also be a job for Power 5 coaches looking to entertain other opportunities, including Arizona State's Bobby Hurley or South Carolina's Frank Martin.
