Tony Bennett retiring, effective immediately.

I wish we could reverse NIL and base a player and teams achievements as the ultimate reward for competing in college.

Coach Bennett, probably see's the writing on the wall and wants to enjoy rather than stress about the complexities now of being a college coach.

Here's the end of regulation. Was just nuts. I think Purdue missed FTs before this that could have iced it too.

The 0.9 seconds to beat Louisville was probably crazier than that

Maybe he wants to coach somewhere else

 

[Skyguyb27]

He’s got an asst on staff that he wants to get the job. That asst now has a year to audition.

Seems most likely the real reason.

Good riddance. His style of play was disgusting and embarrassing to the sport and if you can't adapt, then it's time to die. So he decided to off himself and quit on his players prior to the season starting in a few weeks. That's some loser BS.

People can spray the perfume on the pile he's dropped all they want. He's a quitter who was afraid to adapt and embrace being uncomfortable. Every coach pushes their players to challenge themselves, find a new gym if they are the best player in it, work on their game, be comfortable not being the best, etc....and this guy didn't like that players were telling him to get bent rather than choose UVA due to how putrid the style of play he coaches and was surprised? Nate Ament was not going to play for him nor should he.

The sport got better today with him gone. People like him need to go if they afraid to adapt or work at their craft and can't handle players making $/having opportunities.

That felt like the longest 5.9 seconds ever. The fact they got the ball back like 3/4 court and he made a perfect pass to the only guy with a legit shot is crazy and he made it.

Making 3.6M a year. At a school where he was basically untouchable.

No crying on the yacht. Pay me that kind of money and I’ll work like crazy NIL or not.

I still think he can coach the pro game if interested.
You don't have to be an up tempo coach to succeed in the NBA.
Of all your criticism of Bennett, you never said the man was stupid
Probably one of the highest IQ coaches in the game.
