According to the Spokesman Review, the search for a new head basketball coach might be tougher than the Eagles thought it would be...

"Never in a thousand years," former Eagles coach and current Gonzaga assistant Ray Giacoletti said Thursday about his interest in the job. "The way they just dealt with this thing, I'm trying to pick my words. No! Never!"

"Jim Hayford, who has won more than 100 games in six seasons at Whitworth, said, "I'd love for you to put in the paper I'm not interested. When you look at the stability of leadership at Whitworth College, that's what every coach wants in a job and I have that. And the leadership at Eastern has really wavered ever since (athletic director) Scott Barnes left."

"Leon Rice, another Gonzaga assistant, answered a question about his interest with a question: "Why?" "
