When Billy Donovan announced that he was staying at Florida, the rumors started to fly again, with regards to the Kentucky coaching vacancy. Texas A & M's Billy Donovan appears to be the front runner, but Crean's name has come up before as a possible candidate and it appears to be the case again.
According to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel , Crean has already turned down a long term deal at Arkansas that would have made him the highest paid coach in all of college basketball.
Kentucky has been without a head coach since March 23, when Tubby Smith resigned to take the head coaching job at Minnesota.
