Florida assistant involved at FAU

The folks at Florida Atlantic are a patient bunch.

It's been more than three weeks since Rex Walters left for San Francisco and his replacement still hasn't been selected. Some of the names that have long been popping around are those belonging to former St. John's coach Mike Jarvis and Georgia Southern's Jeff Price. Both are serious candidates. But another guy in the mix, a source has told CBSSports.com, is Florida assistant Lewis Preston.

The source said Preston is expected to interview Wednesday.

FAU will reportedly try to have a coach in place by the end of next week, at the latest.

Wonder if this effects Dago Pena's decision. He's an incoming freshman ranked in Rivals top 150 who Xavier was recruiting at one point.

I was talking to Jarvis when he was doing a Xavier game last year and he mentioned how he would really like to get back into coaching. He was with a USA team that went into Iraq last year. he openly campaigned during a few other games he announced.
