...complete sense for him to leave. Any one of us would do exactly the same thing. I am concerned about what a head coach leaving will do to the BYU basketball program though.

On the flip side, even though I know he should be able to get top-shelf athletes, the pressure will be 10x higher than it was at BYU, and the boosters, fans, and admin will absolutely destroy him if he can't win post-season games. He can't have fifth-place WCC-like finishes at Kentucky or he'll be gone before you can blink.
