Tarkanian, Fresno Meet

Jerry Tarkanian, who says he’ll return to coaching basketball only if it’s at his alma mater, arrived to interview for the vacancy at Fresno State.

Of the 40 candidates for the job, Tarkanian is the only one to interview on campus and no other such meetings are planned, said sports information director Dave Haglund.

Several newspapers have quoted unidentified sources as saying the job will be offered to the former UNLV coach. A recommendation to hire Tarkanian could be made and a decision announced by today, Fresno State officials said.
