He’s not a BYU guy. He’s on the verge of becoming an NBA head coach, just missed the Nets. Almost got the Suns job last year.

The thought of going from the NBA to recruiting a bunch of teenagers for the first time in his life seems like hustling backwards. And getting back to the NBA as a head coach would be a much longer path.

The only reason I can think of is that it could be a small pay raise in the short term.

I know nothing about his family situation, maybe he has a wife from Utah county who is desperate to go back, no idea.

Alex Jensen on the other hand seems like the NBA head coach thing might’ve finally passed him by. **Maybe** a college head coaching gig would make sense.
