Earlier this week, Gery Woelfel of the Racine Journal Times said the following on 105.7 FM The Fan in Milwaukee:
.@GeryWoelfel – “The hottest name that nobody has talked about is Rick Carlisle…The word going around is that he is interested in the #Bucks job and if that’s true it would be a no-brainer. As far as front-runners though, I’m hearing Mike Budenholzer and Monty Williams.”
