He is a heck of a coach. Maybe he is tired of playing in a 1 bid conference, and wants to coach against the best. We would also pay a lot more money.

He just signed a contract exstenion through 2027. I doubt after spending most of his career on the west coast he woulda wanna move across the country. However he is one heck of a coach.

I have about as much respect for him as anyone in the country. Great coach, good recruiter, and a really good guy. Has resisted bigger jobs in the past and seems content in Moraga.

Would love to see him take a bigger job.

You have to look at the whole picture. He has a connection with the Australian youth basketball program. Its like 75% of the reason for his success. I don't think that translates to the ACC. He would be better than a few names I've heard but that's too big of a risk.

Plus, we hear that Pitt has to be squeaky clean. He actually received an NCAA suspension for recruiting.

When St Mary’s is playing well they are absolutely hellacious on defense, obviously tonight is one of those nights.

Correct, he and Few are very comfortable in their positions. I don't think they would leave despite how much money. Might make it hard, point being though they love where they are.

I would imagine Pac-12 programs have been trying to grab him for years.
