If the #Mizzou job came open, though, I’d look very hard at Tony Vitello (Arkansas) and Todd Whitting (Houston). Whitting worked for Mack.

Todd Whitting was hired away from TCU by Mack Rhoades to take over the head coach job at Houston. Will Rhoades be inclined to go for a coach he already knows well? And would Whitting be tempted to leave his alma mater for the chance to coach in the SEC?
Career
- Houston (2010-current) Head Coach (205-150-1 record)
- TCU (04-10) Associate/Asst Coach - Hitting coach and Head Recruiter
- Houston (96-03) Assistant Coach
Mighty Deeds
At Houston, Whitting's Cougars won the AAC championship twice, and went to two NCAA Regionals (14 & 15) and a Super Regional (14); at TCU the Frogs won 5 conference championships, plus went to the College World Series in 2010.
