Christian accepts TCU's offer as coach
Kent State's Jim Christian, after six consecutive seasons of winning at least 20 games, will leave for TCU.
According to multiple sources close to the situation, the 43-year-old Christian has accepted the offer and will be introduced at a news conference either on Saturday or Monday.
Christian, who took over Kent State's program in 2002 after Stan Heath left for Arkansas, has a 138-58 overall record and a 76-28 conference mark.
The Golden Flashes lost in the first round of the NCAA tournament to UNLV earlier this month.
The other candidates in the mix were Sam Houston State's Bob Marlin, Tennessee-Chattanooga's John Shulman, Charlotte Bobcats director of player personnel Buzz Peterson and Oral Roberts' Scott Sutton.
