One year of offseason rumors claimed the Cal football head coach. Could the carousel reignite this spring with Cuonzo Martin?
Pete Thamel of Sports Illustrated reports that Cuonzo Martin will be an offseason coaching candidate in a few places, particularly from his Midwest origins.
Cuonzo Martin, California. He’s led both Cal and Tennessee to the NCAA tournament and holds a career record of 183–115. Martin is from East St. Louis, Ill., played at Purdue and got his start as a head coach at Missouri State. His Midwestern roots make it likely Illinois, Missouri or Arkansas could all swoon for him.
