Yale coach Tom Williams' name has come up as a possible successor to the retiring Dick Tomey at San Jose State.

However, Williams is not a candidate for the San Jose job. There were some preliminary feelers set out in Williams' direction but nobody from San Jose State has requested permission to speak to Williams and will not be doing so.

It's so surprise that Williams' name came up. He fits the profile of what the search committee is looking for, a young, up and coming coach with a sense of how things are done at San Jose State. Williams was a coach on Tomey's staff at San Jose State in 2005 and 2006.
