Well that was short lived. After West Virginia missed the NCAA Tournament, the gears got moving with Beth Goetz allegedly meeting with Darian DeVries yesterday and getting right to the finish line. It seemed like Iowa had found their next head basketball coach before … Indiana entered the picture.
The offer was simply too good for DeVries to pass up and he was announced their head coach earlier today:

Now the waiting game resumes as Iowa’s other top-line candidate plays it out in the NCAA Tournament.
