Bro saw those KenPom & torvik projections, plus his guys “practicing” and said, “screw this!”

Really though.., what’s the story? Health / other issues, or just got freaked having a crappy team?

Not sure. I bought a UVA football ticket years ago so I'm on their athletic department mailing list and just got an email saying he was stepping down immediately. Guess we will learn more at the press conference tomorrow morning.

Might be time for MU to consider if Shaka is the right guy

Cam Ward would rather put a team whose coach is checked out in his final 4 than Shaka and MU.

I'll take a wild guess and say he is disenchanted in the NIL world of college sports. And that he feels that whatever school employs him cannot get his best effort because he can't be enthusiastic about paying an 18 year old college kid $1 million a year to play college basketball.

Just a guess.

Or maybe he's just tired. He's 55; has won a natty; and has made a significant amount of money. Pull an Al McGuire and become a commentator.

But look at the timing. It’s odd. Kind of a d-move, hey?

Did the NIL world change since June when he signed his contract extension?
