@buster_jayhawk Too early to tell, buster. I think Isaiah Johnson will be one to track, though.

@flickofthebean who will Kansas target in the portal?

Bean Watch: Chris Wright looking to fill the Alabama State vacancy

Bean Watch: Kyle Green and Seth Tuttle are the two names to watch in the UNI coaching search

@FoodSportsGuy I don’t know for sure. Not a lot of great info at the moment. Should be relatively soon

@flickofthebean Makes sense. Do you know when he will announce?

Bean Warning: Bill Self expected to run it back for one more year

@FoodSportsGuy I do believe things have changed. He spent the week with his family convincing them he could go one more

@flickofthebean Genuinely wondering, did things drastically change in the last few days? I know you mentioned before it was expected Self would retire.

Bean Watch: Illinois and Mizzou appear to be in a bidding war for Quentin Coleman’s services. Number is north of $1M as of today

@thecyclestrikes Have heard similar, big dog

Sources are telling me Bill Self had been eyeing both Todd Golden and Ben McCollum as his replacement, but is leaning McCollum now, referencing the brutal frame mog in the 2nd round and cortisol spike from Golden. Will be announced in 7 days.

@JonRothstein We had this a month ago. Follow for scoops x.com/flickofthebean…

Sources: LSU will officially part ways with Matt McMahon today and hire NC State's Will Wade as its next head basketball coach. Wade was previously the head coach of the Tigers from 2017-22.

@On3 @JoeTipton @PeteNakos We had this on 2/25. Follow for scoops, folks

BREAKING: NC State head basketball coach Will Wade is expected to leave for LSU, @PeteNakos and @JoeTipton report. on3.com/news/where-thi…

@JonRothstein We had it over here on 2/25. Follow for coaching scoops earlier

Sources: LSU is working to hire McNeese's Heath Schroyer as a Senior Administrator. The Tigers' head coaching job is not open, but LSU President Wade Rousse & Schroyer both previously hired NC State's Will Wade at McNeese & are on the verge of bringing him back to Baton Rouge.

All eyes here. We had it on February 25

Bean Watch: it’s expected that Bill Self will retire this offseason. Coaching carousel will be madness.
