again without any inside information on this one- i'd add that even if it is spallina, fortunately the women's program is at a point where it can probably attract a top coach.
and if he gets the job, i fear that expectations will be sky high and that's usually a let down. if you don't win the AE in year one, everyone's going to question- why did you hire the women's coach.
also, another item to add to the wish list is to avoid a "stepping stone" coach. a young asst with higher aspirations that will just leave after cutting teeth at SB. would be nice to get a longer term candidate.
