Potential Coaching Candidates for Stetson Hatters Basketball

With Dusty May departing from Florida Atlantic to Michigan, the Stetson Hatters Basketball program may look for a new head coach. Several candidates are emerging as potential hires. Juwan Howard, previously with Michigan, is familiar with South Florida and has a strong recruiting background, making him a notable option. Todd Abernethy, who has served as an assistant at FAU, could provide continuity for the team, especially if May considers taking him to Michigan. Another candidate is Josh Schertz, an FAU alumnus currently excelling at Indiana State, where he led the team to a successful season, although they missed the NCAA tournament. Donnie Jones, the head coach at Stetson, has experience leading teams to NCAA tournaments and could be a viable candidate given his track record. Lastly, Will Wade, now at McNeese State, has a history of success, although his past at LSU raises concerns about potential issues. Each of these candidates brings unique strengths and challenges to the Stetson program's future.
