I was just about to post this.

The only thing I can thing of as a possibility is if someone was fired and walked into another situation like Weber did at Illinois where he had a ready made team.  But even than I can't think of it.

Limit this to the past 20 years.  You know modern college basketball.

Huggins wasn't fired for basketball performance

What about Lon Kruger?

If there was a gif of nicname thwarting the attempted-flag-taker and then gesturing him to suck it, followed by motioning for all of Hilton Shelter to boo him louder, it'd be better than that auburn gif.

true, I was looking more D1 since the parity in basketball is so different than football.

Frank Haith was going to get fired at Miami

How do you figure?  He was kept around because he built a pretty good roster at Miami that was expected to be decent this season.

Extremely similar situation though. In fact Haith did a shattier job at UM than Weber did at Ill. But, MU is very homo so I'm done with that comparo

Haith had one good year, still had a first round exit, and has yet to recruit his own players.  Even if you want to consider him "fired" from Miami, to say he is a success at Mizzou is at best, premature
