a winning move had Jackson left before last year, but he's now proving he can win at a name brand school in Wisconsin.

I think they are grooming Brock Sheahan to take over for Jackson. Hiring an alum is always fraught with risk, but this would not be anything like the hiring of Dave Poulin back in 1995. That was an odd move that had more downside by far than upside. I don't think Sheahan is behind the Irish bench to be anyone's number 4.

I'm not close enough to the sport anymore to have anything like an informed opinion about who the up and coming coaches are. Our poster ndmd99 might have an opinion about some other names out there who might be the next big thing as far as NCAA coaches go. If he has a thought, I'd love to hear his.
