Another from the MIssouri Valley Conference, guard Conor Enright from Drake, originally from Mundelein.

David Thomas - guard from Mercer that has 3 years of eligibility left. Was second on Mercer in scoring despite only starting 8 games. Appears he definitely got better as the year went on and was more involved on their team. 40% 3Pt shooting on the year. https://247sports.com/article/depaul-lands-mer...

NJ Benson - forward from Missouri State that lead their team in rebounding this past year.

CJ Gunn - backup shooting guard that didn't play much at Indiana this past season.

Since there will be quite a few, figure a thread to list them out wouldn't be bad. First one follows Mullins from SIU. 6'7" Forward Troy D'amico. Just looking at his stats, decent shooting and was 2nd on SIU in pts this year, though didn't average in double digits. https://dailyegyptian.com/118...

Gave it a B. On paper he's much better w/ his past accomplishments than past hires. However, OSU rebounding and playing so well after he was canned there is concerning to me.

Holtmann at Ohio State has been fired, so will be interesting to see if they persue Mack.

Chris Mack will likely generate a decent amount of interest from schools in major conferences looking for a coaching hire, especially in the midwest: https://collegesportswire.usatoday.com/lists/5-coaching-candidates-ohio-state-buckeyes-replace-chris-holtmann-college-basketball/ If he is the target ...

I like that idea and would seem to be a good fit. No idea who else may be looking at him as a hire, but would have to think he would want to consider DePaul if he is wanting to coach in a major conference again.

Now that the firing is official, who will be the next coach?
