I can't see him leaving for Holy Cross. As the article says, it would be a lateral move at best. Next fall he'll have arguably the best team since he's been here, and they may even make some noise in their challenging OCS (Yes! Revenge against the Orange! ::flipd:: ) or even the NCAA's. Unless injuries or defections cause a total disaster, he's sure to get better offers after that. I can definitely see him going to the A-10 or even a Big Least team. Clearly he's becoming a hot commodity, but a jump to Holy Cross now will hardly do much for him. If he's looking to move up the coaching ladder, would he really want to move his family now, only to move again in a few years rather than wait for the better offer he's sure to get before long? Then again, maybe he's got a hankering for Worcester the way Tierney hankered after Denver. You never know.
