Carson Cunningham is moving to the collegiate ranks....might he be a Valpo candidate if/when Bryce moves on to other things?

Who is Carson Cunningham?  I would think that we would go with an established D-1 Assistant or Head Coach if Bryce leaves in the next few years

I guess he is giving up his tenure track position at DePaul:

Good for Carson!

I would think that if Valpo were to look outside the VU basketball family, Dr. Cunningham's name might come up in conversation.

After some success at Carroll, of course.

He is a brilliant, brilliant guy. 

He also has yet to work at a non-Catholic school, though. *rib nudge*

I was confused because I thought it was Carroll College in Wisconsin. Didn't realize there is a Carroll College in Montana. Best of luck to him there. In the two comments posted with the article, it seems that a couple of 'fans' feel that this might not have been the best decision, but then when does it ever seem that a college AD makes the decision that a fanbase wants?

it would be kind of like our reaction if he beat out Roger Powell to replace Bryce in 2018.  still a brilliant choice.

So that means he'll succeed Stevens at Butler?
