"There is mutual interest between East Carolina and Florida Gulf Coast basketball coach Joe Dooley, and a deal to bring Dooley back to ECU could become a real possibility after FGCU is done with the NIT.

An ECU offer would need to be extended and both sides would have to agree on full details including recruiting and travel budgets, according to sources, for Dooley to return to ECU for his second stint after leading the Pirates for four seasons during the late-1990s.

An FGCU source said this week that Dooley would be ready to consider an East Carolina offer after the NIT and probably accept. The Eagles, who are nearing the end of their fifth straight 20-win season under Dooley, are set to play at Oklahoma State in the first round of the NIT at 9 p.m. on Tuesday... ."

"...Former Charlotte coach Bobby Lutz also could be an ECU candidate, along with coaches who are in the NCAA tournament this week in Ryan Odom (Maryland-Baltimore County), Wes Miller (UNC Greensboro) and Earl Grant (College of Charleston)... ."
