Dakich's exit leaves room for successor

By Joel Hammond TH[ BG N[WS It was a night of reflection for departing BG basketball coach Dan Dakich. "This is such a great town," began Dan Dakich in his press conference last night. "When I weighed my options, I just couldn't find any cons about Bowling Green, which made this all the harder. ... It's been nothing but fun the whole time I've been here." The coach's departure to West Virginia University, announced yesterday morning from Morgantown, W Va., leaves a vacancy on a team that went 24-9 in 2001 -02. lust who will fill that vacancy, and when, remains the question of the night. Early candidates have been speculated to be BG assistant coach Keith Noftz, former BG point guard David Greer and former Michigan head coach Brian Ellerbe. Noftz has been an assistant for nine years, spending the last six at Bowling Green. Noftz is a native of nearby Clyde. Oh., and coached John Adams High School in South Bend prior to Associated Press Photo his arrival in BG. MOVING AHEAD: Dan Dakich officially announced at 3 p.m. yesterday that he will be West Virginia University's 20th head basketball coach.
