Matt Langel getting lots of mentions for the Penn State vacancy (Shrewsberry leaving for Notre Dame).
He seemed like a great candidate for Temple, but CBS reporting "in a headscratching move, a source told CBS Sports that Colgate coach Matt Langel, who is a former Temple assistant and knows Philadelphia well, is not expected to be pursued for the job."
Coaching Changes on Twitter says they hear the Temple AD removed Langel from consideration because "he's never coached a pro."
That seems pretty dopey.
CBS says American hiring decision expected this week.

I was thinking Langel could be a possibility for Temple…maybe even Providence. Yeah the “never coached a pro” reasoning is strange especially considering Temple isn’t exactly known for filling up NBA rosters.

Well, I guess that's his aspiration, but seems like an outstanding coach who recruits well will make that happen even if he hadn't previously done so at a mid-major program.

The Temple AD sounds like a lightweight - or worse. Langel is a much better coach than whoever he ends up hiring. Probably another Aaron McKie. Or maybe he can grab Ashley Howard. He coached lots of pros at Villanova before turning in a record of 26-50 at La Salle in A10 play.

Just to clarify, English was not let go by GMU. He was still their head coach until he left for Providence yesterday. GMU had a fairly good season this year.

Congrats to DP. I’m sure he will have some success at Holy Cross but not like at Bucknell (well I hope not, lol.) He seems like a good guy and he deserves to be a HC. This will make Bucknell-HC matchups much more fun.

While convinced Paulsen will improve the HC basketball program, not sure this is the best move for either Dave or the College. Used to live nearby and went to a number of games each year. Older, limited facilities (both athletic and academic), poor student and local resident support, and a track record of being the place coaches go to die. Its no accident that HC's record the past 13 years is 163-262. As the 5th coach since Ralph Willard left, good luck to Dave. We can now continue the over/under regarding how many cups of water he drinks a game.

Funny quip from Paulsen at his introductory press conference today. Speaking appreciatively of his wife, he said, "We are now in the market for our 15th house in 31 years. She hasn't hit the transfer portal yet."

After all the hype about Halcovage going to Bucknell, he’s been hired by Buffalo.

I guess DP takes that “you didn’t vhoose me, but I chose you” quip wherever he goes.

American has hired Duane Simpkins, a DMV legend who starred at DeMatha and the University of Maryland. Spent the last 8 years on the George Mason staff, including 6 years under Dave Paulsen. Still hearing rumors DeChellis might retire at Navy, but for now an extremely busy PL coaching carousel has settled down.

If DeChellis intends to retire, he may be delaying it until it is too late to conduct a job search, hoping his Associate Head Coach Jon Perry would get the job. Perry has played and coached under DeChellis for 21 of the past 23 years.
Emmett Davis, the former Colgate coach, has also been an Associate Head Coach there for years. But he is about 63 years old and would be unlikely to be the choice.

Wow! Amazing number of new coaches in Patriot League will make it difficult to find and hire the best assistant coaches. Any head coach hired late in the process will find an already difficult hiring process to be even more of a challenge.
