Intrepid CBSSports.com college hoops reporter Gary Parrish reports former NBA star, former Kansas grad and current Kansas assistant Danny Manning is going to be the new head coach at Tulsa. Manning will replace Doug Wojick who was fired.
Believe it or not, Manning has been an assistant at his alma mater since 2007 and his stature in the field has grown incrementally.
The original report from Mr. Parrish is RIGHT HERE
Manning still has a little piece of business to take care of as his Jayhawks arrive in New Orleans for this weekends Final Four. Based on Mr. Parrish's report and the weekends activity, we are guessing the "Official" presser won't be held until early next week.
And yes, he's going to be one of the tallest head coaches in the NCAA (just wanted to throw that in there).
Here's some video of Manning in his heyday, leading Kansas to the 1988 NCAA Championship. (**--note--** look how young Larry Brown looks here)
