Men's Basketball: Holes in lineup leave many questions for '08
Observer Online, IN - 21 hours ago
After Kentucky coach Tubby Smith bolted the Wildcats for Minnesota, Andy Katz of Espn.com reported that Irish coach Mike Brey is one of eight candidates to replace Smith at one of college basketball's most storied programs.

Brey just completed his seventh season as Notre Dame coach and earned Big East coach of the year honors this season after guiding the Irish to an 11-5 conference record and their first NCAA Tournament appearance in four seasons.

Whether Brey leaves or not, the Irish will still have to replace guards Colin Falls and Russell Carter. Both were All-Big East first-team selections this season, averaging 15.3 and 17.1 points per game, respectively. McAlarney will help replace some of these offensive holes - he was averaging 10.3 points per game before his suspension - but his traditional role as point guard most likely belongs to rising sophomore Tory Jackson.

Wow, it'd stink if they lost Brey. Even with the players they have to replace, they're a much better team in 2008 with him than without him.
