Bill Knight: Dickey the Front-Runner but Talks Still "Ongoing" With Tim Floyd
The El Paso Times' Biill Knight has a nice round-up of where the UTEP mens basketball coaching search stands as of this morning. With all the movement in the last 24 hours, I wouldn't be surprised if we have an official announcement very soon.
Excerpt: "Most thought Floyd to be the top choice, but recently his name has drifted out of the picture. He interviewed with UTEP athletic director Bob Stull last weekend in New Orleans. Floyd also interviewed with the University of Houston last weekend. Sources close to the search say "it's not dead yet" and that it is safe to assume talks are still ongoing with Floyd."

Breaking news - Tim Floyd is UTEP new head coach
This is the right hire for UTEP. Hopefully Floyd can keep his recruiting clean this time around, although he has not been officially charged with anything yet from his time at USC.
The NCAA investigation is looming
But I’m confident that Bob Stull pulled the trigger because he knows that the NCAA is not going to levy any punishments on Floyd personally. I think it’s a ballsy hire by Stull. If Culpepper & Co. don’t want to play for Tim Floyd who gets players into the pro’s and who has coached in the NBA, they don’t want to play for anybody.
