Spiker to Interview for Army Position on Thursday

Jeff Goodman of FoxSports.com has another update on Army's head basketball coach job search which includes Cornell assistant, Zach Spiker (above, far left). Goodman writes:
It’s still uncertain whether St. Mary’s assistant Kyle Smith is in the group of finalists or not at Army, but one source told me he is no longer in the mix. That leaves Arizona State associate head coach Dedrique Taylor, St. John’s assistant Fred Quartlebaum and Cornell assistant Zach Spiker as the three front-runners. All three will interview in the next two days with Taylor and Quartlebaum going in today and Spiker set to interview tomorrow.
While we do not want to see Spiker leave the Big Red coaching staff, he would be an excellent choice for the United States Military Academy.

In the event that Coach Spiker become Army's next head coach, the Big Red coaching staff remains stable with assistants Nat Graham (entering his 5th season with Cornell) and Woody Kampmann (entering his 3rd season with Cornell) ready to step up into increased roles.

One potential replacement for Spiker on the staff could include Kevin App (Cornell '07). App is currently serving as an assistant at Williams College.

Another intriguing candidate could include Khaliq Gant ('09), a former player and team manager, currently working in New York City.
