Ron Everhart won’t coach for Penn State

Duquesne coach Ron Everhart withdrew his name from the list of candidates for the Penn State basketball head coaching job.

Everhart is currently riding the post season train at Duquesne – he’s made it there the past three seasons and has posted a winning record the past four seasons. His 83-74 record has earned him a solid reputation with the mid-major.

He interviewed with Penn State Athletic Director Tim Curley on Tuesday and apparently did not like what he heard. Then again, he still has three years remaining on his $400,000 per year contract.

The Nittany Lions are most likely still in talks with UW-Milwaukee’s Rob Jeter and Boston University’s Pat Chambers.

Last season the team finished 19-15 and advanced to the NCAA tournament.
