Lot of openings or soon-to-be openings that Kerns will likely receive interest from.

If we lose Kerns, call Matt, should have gotten the job in 2010...

Jeff Capel fired Jason Capel, so he's available. Most people will think poorly of Jeff Capel for firing his brother, but I think most App fans commend him for it.

Only in the SEC, fire a coach that put your school under significant sanctions to only try to lure him back a few years later.
If it happens and Kerns does decide to leave for whatever reason (which I hope he doesn't)... Bring Matt home..

My bad! University of Texas-Rio Grande Valley in the Southland Conference. McNeese State and Stephen F. Austin are also in that conference.

So you’re saying Jeff Capel just cut off the cinderblocks around his ankles?

Might be time for a clean slate if we lose too many guys. Kerns probably doesn’t want to keep rebuilding with no money/support.

Whole starting 5 essentially gone already minus Wilson.

$8M not to live in Baton Rouge, sign me up!

He's a great coach and person, he'll land a job pretty easy I'd assume.

I remember his first game at App. Varsity Gym. Friday night before a football game. 1996 I think.

Saw something posted elsewhere that Kerns was interviewing for the Charleston job. No idea of its veracity.
