Big time job opening, thoughts?

My instincts are telling me Chris Collins, because this conference can’t seem to have enough Dookies

Did someone hire Shaka Smart?

Rick Pitino would be perfect

Amen. He should definitely be an ACC coach. It’s a no brainer if he’s interested.

That would be a quick turnaround, but an excellent hire.

Yep, Notre Dame hires Penn State coach.

Ehh, I think they could have done better than a guy that won a single tournament game.

Very good hire. Happy for Notre Dame. They don't mind spending big money unlike most ACC schools.

"Penn State reportedly offered Shrewsberry a new contract which would have more than doubled his salary from this season, but Notre Dame trumped it with a seven-year deal reportedly worth in excess of $4 million per season, plus a willingness to pay Shrewsberry’s Penn State buyout of $4 million."

That's a pretty attractive offer. Impressive move by ND.

Shrewsberry is the real winner here considering he has a 37-31 overall record and never finished above .500 in conference play. I guess they think he's the next Brad Stevens.

He’s from Indiana. PSU basketball has always struggled to get top flight coaches and players…the campus is not close to a big city, and there are a lot more convenient alternatives for stars.

ND definitely knew how to go after the attractive candidate.

I think Notre Dame is one of the best jobs in the ACC—like win a title good job—but Brey was never going to win the whole thing. I really think they should have waited and gone after McDermott. That said, I hope Shrewsberry does well.

As an aside, the last time they went after a Fordham coach with a 25+ win season they landed Digger Phelps.
