Ten realistic candidates who could replace Rick Pitino as coach at Louisville--CBS Sports

Illinois State's Dan Muller: The youngest candidate on this list among head coaches. And here's why Muller could be considered. Say Louisville winds up with a postseason ban for 2018, or potentially 2019 depending on how the NCAA's inevitable, second investigation tied to this FBI probe goes. If that happens -- if Louisville is truly crippled by the NCAA's Committee on Infractions -- then luring a good head coach from a top-40 program is going to be tough. But Muller, who has been quietly getting it done at Illinois State for years, could be a good candidate to take the lumps for a couple of seasons, be given a long leash of a contract, and ultimately see the benefits of risking it for the long-term payoff. Few mid-major coaches would be a better call in this spot.
