DePaul has fired head coach Dave Leitao after six seasons. Leitao was 69-113 during that time.
New AD DeWayne Peevy recently said he was hired by DePaul to fix men’s basketball:
“I was brought here for a reason,’’ Peevy told the Sun-Times earlier this month, ‘‘to fix [men’s basketball]. … “I didn’t come here to be last, We’re last again.’’
Among the names that Peevy could target: Loyola coach Porter Moser, former Kentucky assistant Kenny Payne, who is now an assistant coach with the Knicks, or Duke assistant and former Glenbrook North standout Jon Scheyer.
