I dont blame any coach for leaving with NIL. Wright had nothing more to prove.
We need to bring him out of retirement. Perfect fit here and would bring another title.
Wright is done with coaching. He says so in the article - even if it was still the way it used to be.
We do not need a coach who is not 100% driven for success at the highest level. That doesn’t work at Kentucky.
As we are seeing now with Pope and with Cal once he got fat and lazy.
It sounds like the transfer portal may’ve bothered him more than NIL. The whole mercenary mentality leading to totally different rosters every year was something he didn’t want to deal with.
You’re not paying attention. He ain’t the “perfect fit” anywhere in the transfer portal/NIL era. He’s made it clear that he wants nothing to do with this version of college basketball. That’s why he quit.
The only way Wright coaches again is if the NBA coaxes him out. He’s done with CBB.
He's a big culture guy. Hard to establish your culture when the whole roster flips every year. Don't blame him one bit for getting out. CBB/CFB jobs are harder than ever with zero days off.
**** changes. It’s the only constant. Give me someone that rolls with it and adapts.
I can understand why. Even as a fan I don’t like a completely different roster from year to year. I can only imagine how difficult that is for a coach trying to manage a team and the tendencies of each individual player changing year to year.
