Call set up between Larry Brown and Penn State AD goes nowhere

Posted May 30, 2011
It's not as if Penn State is adrift in stacked resumes seeking its men's basketball head coaching position, especially considering that the search is going on in late May. PSU athletics director Tim Curley will end up with, at best, some up-n-comer mid-major coach or someone who's been out of the game awhile. So, it was with much interest when I learned that Curley spoke to none other than Hall of Fame coach Larry Brown on Thursday night. (Harrisonburg Patriot-News)
