More fun with Fran and Fran
With the Final Four in the rear view mirror, the folks in Philly have resumed the Who will replace Fran Dunphy game if he takes the Temple job. Kevin Tatum of the Philadelphia Inquirer rounds up the usual suspects, beginning with Lafayette's Fran O'Hanlon.

Tatum's top four also includes current Penn assistant Dave Duke. Folks who remember Duke's teams when he was head coach at Lehigh have to scratch their heads at that suggestion. Current Lehigh coach Billy Taylor is on Tatum's "others worth a look" list.

Meanwhile, in Easton, O'Hanlon tells Corky Blake of the Express-Times:
"I like it right where I am at and my family likes it here. Besides, they have a coach."
O'Hanlon also says the Leopards have one commitment thus far for their first scholarship recruiting class. As Blake points out, most scholarship quality kids sign before their senior season these days, so the full impact of scholarships at Lafayette won't start to kick in for their recruiting until this summer, when they go after next year's high school seniors.
