Ranking 21-30

Another week in and at this point teams have anywhere from 2 to 6 games under their belt. There's not much movement in the top 20 but Frank Martin did drop 10 spots to #20 due to going 5-for-6 early on. Those behind him all moved up a spot except for Paul Hewitt at Georgia Tech who lost one they shouldn't have to UNC Greensboro and then later went down to a rebuilding Winthrop team. Hewitt "climbs" two notches to #15.

For clarification purposes: The higher the ranking, the less job security they have and the greater chance they will be replaced after the season ends (if not before; a precedent has been set).

Here's who occupying hot seats 21 through 30:

21. Bobby Jones (St. Francis PA) - Must make some noise in the Northeast or a change may be in order.
22. Rodney Tention (Loyola Marymount) - Went from contenders to pretenders in the West Coast Conference last season.
23. Jeff Lebo (Auburn) - Must improve soon and get some recruits or he'll need to have his resume handy.
24. George Nessman (San Jose St.) - Has a major rebuilding job on his hands but there's some question about the amount of time he'll be allowed.
25. Greg Graham (Boise St.) - In his sixth season on the bench and the program appears to be sitting at a stall.
26. Derek Waugh (Stetson) - Now in year 8, he hasn't had a winning season since his first one.
27. Rick Stansbury (Mississippi St.) - Needs to get back in Field of 64 or he may wish he hadn't turned down South Alabama.
28. Neil Dougherty (TCU) - Solid showing in Mountain West this season keeps him out of the frying pan.
29. Bill Herrion (New Hampshire) - Critics are heating up and doubt is creeping in.
30. Scott Drew (Baylor) - Showing improvement in Waco so he may be safe this year.

I'll try to get 31-40 posted later this week.
