[Fly Like a Duck]

^^^This.

Within the past 3 hours, I’ve heard comments that make me think he’s coming...AND....comments that make me think he is not. Both from reputable sources.

And you are right: it is his to turn down or accept.

Once you get to the spring (and, beyond); telling your current school and KIDS on the team that you are LEAVING make(s) an already hard decision even harder; especially if you have a chance to be pretty good in the coming year at your current school (say what you want, but that factors in).

Jobs (many) come open every year, but great jobs don't. All factored in..is this another job or is it a great job? There are arguments for both sides of that coin depending on who you talk to.

Whether who it's been offered to is using this for leverage at his current school or legitimately thinking about taking this job doesn't matter to me. Good for them. Coaches (and their families) give up so much for others, so I have zero issues with them looking out for "#1" from time to time.

If leaving every other year for a job (unless they are bonifide climbs up the ladder, in particular...in $$$), then that's a different story.
