DePaul has no coach, no on-campus gym, and just two Big East wins in the last two seasons. Yeah, times are tough for Blue Demons basketball right now.
DePaul axed Jerry Wainwright on January 11 and still doesn't have a head coach. As such, drastic times call for drastic measures: DePaul has
posted the men's basketball coach job on its website.
For real.
If you want to coach a Big East basketball team next season, all you have to do is apply online. Just don't forget to include a resume and cover letter!
And no, this isn't a joke. To get to the page linked above, just do this:
1) Go to
DePaul.edu2) Click on 'Employment'
3) Click on 'Staff Positions'
4) Click on 'Applicants: Career Opportunities'
5) Type in 'coach' in the keyword box and hit search.
Men's basketball coach is the fourth job down. It was posted on March 3. Easy as that.
Iowa fires Lick yesterday, Michigan gets tazered by tOSU Friday. Now f'n this. It is just not my year for college bball in any way.
DePaul does have an on-campus gym they just refuse to use it. It's way smaller than the Allstate but its not like they fill the Allstate anyway. The on-campus gym actually makes you feel like you're at the game instead of an empty arena
It is used for Women's Basketball (you know, their good basketball team). But it is not good or large enough for any big conference D-1 Men's team. It's pretty much an HS gym.
It's policy at DePaul to make sure all job openings are open to the public. Theoretically, you can apply to become the University's President, as well.
I think the anonymous and Joe fail to see the absolute humor in this post.
depaul is a complete joke. this team doesnt even deserve to play in the big east. how can they honestly go out and recruit kids and tell them that they can compete with any of the other schools in the conference?
I know this post is about their desperate search for a coach and not about what conference they're in, but they are just doing themselves a disservice by staying in the big east. They're better off joining the horizon league and being big fish in a small pond
You do know that all schools, especially public, pose their jobs. They are also on the ncaa.org job board.

PZ - I think youre forgetting about the wealth of other athletics DePaul offers. Softball, men's and women's soccer, and the women's basketball team have all excelled in the Big East. Just because the men suck doesn't mean the rest don't deserve to be in the Big East.
