Lavin Reportedly Offered NC State Position

After being turned down by both Rick Barnes and John Calipari (the 2nd of which I think was a sham), it appears the search may be just about ready to wind down.

Mike DeCourcy is reporting:

Former UCLA coach Steve Lavin has been offered the opportunity to return to coaching by the N.C. State Wolfpack.

Lavin has been out of the business for three years and working as a broadcast analyst for ESPN since he was let go by the Bruins following the 2002-03 season, his only losing year as a head coach.

Lavin is working on contract details and has not yet decided whether to accept the job.
