This guy is an absolute coaching genius and no doubt he will win a title eventually. Every year UVA loses a stud from Mike Scott to Joe Harris to Justin Anderson to Malcolm Brogdon to London Perrantes and yet he always has the Hoos among the best in the nation. I hope he stays at UVA for a long time but eventually I can see one of the bigger programs in the nation going after him. I just wonder why more top tier talent doesn't consider UVA cause he played in the NBA and has a good track record of sending players to the league.
UVA's Tony Bennett

- Start date
How much does he make a year?
Becauer playing in the Packline requires a lot of discipline, reps, and intelligence. Most one-and-dones wouldn't get the playing time they'd desire because Tony ain't playing kids who aren't willing to commit to his system fully. His ideal recruiting pool will always be 4-stars like Anderson, Brogdon, and Guy who are willing to stay in Charlottesville for 3-4 years.
The same reason blue chip recruits hated Bo Ryan and John Beilein, they play a slow pace and don't tolerate fouls/turnovers.
No..Money..Mo..Problems
it is what it is
That Villanova coach needs a shot at the NBA as well. How you play a 4 guard one big system and still have good defenses. 
2.1 million a year. But the school is flush with cash; if they sense he might leave they'll definitely throw more cash at him.

His name has been popping up in the NBA. Solid coach who doesn't really have much of an offense.
But the analytic cacs are gonna kiss his ass and Brad Stevens him.

philly.
he's got those kids flatout, 100% committed on the defensive end and watching them play is because you rarely see a team absolutely make the team work for every shot and possesion.

Jay Wright has been rumored for a few NBA jobs the past few years. Now that he's got that chip, he might be more open to looking at an NBA job; I think it would have to be a perfect fit in order for him to leave. I wouldn't mind seeing him coach my Knicks, but I don't see that happening.
Yeah.. in the tourney you gotta be able to switch the pace up
But his teams will always be right there
