For some reason, I don't think Drew would take the job. I also don't get the feeling the Hurley would take the job, either. DePaul has tried high major coaches (Kennedy and Purnell), a mid-major coach (Jerry) and an assistant (DL), all to no avail. The one thing in common is that none of those guys appear to have been DePaul's first choice. I believe that DePaul needs a personality to build the interest level in the program up, along with a guy who is going to recruit the type of kid that DePaul needs to be successful. DePaul is a commuter college with a ton of part time students in the middle of a major city. They are not Marquette or Georgetown or Villanova. They need to take inner city kids and maybe some academic risks. When DePaul wins, they get kids Q, Lance Williams, etc. They started losing when guys like Sam Cassell were refused entry into the school. Joey paid for it. They relaxed the criteria for Fat Pat and started winning again. Upped it for DL and talent level started decreasing. So, he ends up skipping town. In keep with the higher academic standards the school wanted, JW recruited the suburbs, and the talent fell further. I don't think Purnell appreciated how far the school has fallen in the mind of Chicagoans.
