[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't buy he is going to go coach in college as it would have already been announced.

And given he is a PLL lax guy, and most college recruiting takes place during the summer months, I don't see why a head college coach would offer him a job in the first place. Its generally the younger college assistants who traveling from club tournament to club tournament every weekend come June and July.

He shouldn't have accepted the job if he was going to look for greener pastures 5 months into the job.

There are a decent amount of guys involved in the PLL and before it folded MLL that are college coaches. There are others that coach club teams as well. How many of the folks on here wouldn't take a better opportunity if it presented itself? For a young assistant it's a job plus they can get a masters degree for free or a decent amount paid for by the school. I doubt he knew 5 months ago that a better position would be popping up.[/quote]

He's going to Georgetown.  An asst coach job is not a better gig.  It was minimum 3 years before DJO would be competitive.  They'd lose to W-L at this point,  They are awful and he quit.  Great player but needs to learn how to be an adult.  His tenure at STJ wasn't so great either.[/quote]

In the spirit of trying to be charitable, we don't know all the back story but he is definitely young. All of us have made mistakes and is it possible he could have handled this better, yes? But sounds like he at a minimum had second thoughts and better to step away before the season started than jump off mid race. Hes a great player and no need to damn someone for looking for opportunities. Lets just hope he lands well at Georgetown and all move on.[/quote]
