Tales of two jobs
In the Daily Pennsylvanian's latest installment on Penn's search for a new coach, the paper speculates that some coaches might be more interested in the job than they are saying in public, including Lafayette's Fran O'Hanlon.

Says the Pennsylvanian:
Those close to the search, however, say that both O'Hanlon and (Brown coach Glen) Miller may be more interested in the Penn job than their statements imply.

They do not want to appear eager to leave their current schools if they don't get the Penn job. Moreover, they do not want current and potential recruits to worry about their coach leaving.
The Pennsylvanian also calls Lehigh's Billy Taylor "one of, if not the, favorite" for the job.

Taylor's name also continue to be linked to the Virginia Commonwealth job, though the Richmond Times-Dispatch is not calling Anthony Grant, associate head coach at the University of Florida the frontrunner there.

American coach Jeff Jones' name had previously been mentioned as a possibility, but he is not on the paper's latest list.
