On Monday the latest high-major opening popped, bringing the number of power-conference jobs in this year's cycle to 11. The long-expected move of Andy Enfield turning away from <strong>USC</strong> and heading to the Lone Star State <span class="link"><a href="https://www.cbssports.com/college-basketball/news/smu-hires-andy-enfield-usc-coach-leaves-trojans-after-11-seasons-to-lead-mustangs-into-acc-era/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">was made official</a></span>.<strong> SMU</strong> announced Enfield's hiring, which puts USC on the clock to get his replacement — though the school has been working channels on that for more than a week.<br>Trojans athletic director Jen Cohen will be tasked with bringing on a coach who can get USC into the upper half of the 18-team Big Ten. (Still sounds weird to read and say out loud.) The objective is to land a sitting head coach at a high-major program. A variety of candidates for the USC opening were interviewed via Zoom over the weekend, sources told CBS Sports. By midday Tuesday it was clear, according to my sources, that Eric Musselman had separated himself (at least for now) on USC's list of targets. Musselman will interview on Wednesday. If he nails the interview, this search could be over. <br>If that happens, <strong>Arkansas </strong>coming open would spur yet another huge race; that's a top-25 job in the sport, without question. If we get to that point, I'll have a list of candidates ready for you right here.<br>Elsewhere on Monday, as expected, <strong>Oklahoma State</strong> finally closed when it hired <span class="link"><a href="https://www.cbssports.com/college-basketball/news/oklahoma-state-hires-steve-lutz-western-kentucky-coach-led-his-teams-to-three-straight-ncaa-tournaments/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Steve Lutz to a five-year deal</a></span> after more than a week of flirtation with the former Western Kentucky coach. Sources said OSU was poking around one more big offer in recent days, but that never materialized. Lutz's deal will start at $2.4 million. With Lutz leaving town, <strong>Western Kentucky </strong>AD Todd Stewart promoted Hank Plona up from assistant to head coach. <br>Speaking of Oklahoma State, former coach Mike Boynton Jr. is in line to join Dusty May's staff at <strong>Michigan</strong> as the lead assistant, sources said Tuesday. Boynton was in high demand among power-conference programs because of his stellar reputation in the industry. Two more candidates are in line to join Boynton, but those decisions won't be final for a little bit.<br>Additionally,<strong> Washington State </strong>closed Tuesday night. As was first reported here, Montana State coach Matt Logie was offered but decided to stay at Montana State (and with a strong new contract). That opened the door for the other finalist:<strong> Eastern Washington's</strong> David Riley. He got a six-year deal that starts at nearly $600,000, according to sources. <br>We also had a hiring in the Missouri Valley on Monday. <strong>Drake</strong> tapped D-II wizard Ben McCollum to succeed Darian DeVries. McCollum has been offered other D-I jobs that past two cycles but couldn't commit. Now he takes over a program that's currently well-positioned in the Valley but is traditionally one of the toughest jobs in that league. <br>The carousel has 57 job switches so far, and a few more are inevitable. Here's a capsule on every gig that's flipped.<br>© 2004-2024 CBS Interactive. All Rights Reserved.<br>CBS Sports is a registered trademark of CBS Broadcasting Inc.
