Seeing what he just did I, would it surprise you if Matt did this in next 5 years with the state of College athletics?

A lot of people suddenly retiring since Diddy's arrest.

He’s one of the good ones. There has to be a lot more to the story than I’ve heard, given the timing after the start of practice. He and Jay Wright were two of my favorites and both got out young.

Yeah very weird timing, seems like maybe there's a health concern or something. Just speculating, it's just odd. I don't remember when in the offseason Wright retired but don't think it was close to the start of the season.

ETA: Jay Wright retired on April 21, 2022.

I’ve seen where it’s possibly a family issue. Sad to see as he is truly one of the good guys.

saw he may have done it to allow one of his guys take over as coach…but only a rumor

Only 6 active coaches with a title now.

Bill Self
John Calipari
Dan Hurley
Tom Izzo
Scott Drew
Rick Pitino

That's a pretty short list.

That's a pretty short list.

The list of the Non-Scumbags/Cheaters with a title is even shorter…

Totally wild to hear. The timing sucks and wonder what happens since we are <30 days before season starts.

Haven’t seen anything digging into the why yet. I’m sure there will be a lot of discourse.
