On Saturday, a report came out with some names getting interviews for the Pitt basketball head coaching job. One name not in that list, however, was revealed by ESPN later in the day to very much be in the mix: Vanderbilt head coach Kevin Stallings.
Vandy’s Kevin Stallings is in mix for the Pittsburgh job, sources told ESPN. Todd Turner has search — and Turner hired Stallings at Vandy.

The Stallings thing is sort of out of the blue here. Like former head coach Jamie Dixon, he had been at one place for a very long time as the Vanderbilt head coach from 1999 until the present.
