'yes' to the St. Joseph's offer. I see that he has accepted that offer from D3 St. Joseph's in West Hartford.
I gather that the job of 'coach' will become official a bit down the road....maybe due to his current job as consultant to UConn? But that is what he will be doing...getting the whistle back....on the court.
Note: this is the first year that men have been admitted to the college. Next year will be the first men's team.
I assume he will be setting up a schedule....doing some recruiting [no athletic schollies for D3 schools].
His name will have serious buzz. Amherst is typically the best D3 in New England. Will he get to that level in 3 or 4 years?
It's clear that JC is a lifer....I do love this move....and am glad that he is not going to a school competing with UConn...that might tarnish his UConn cred with a few.
Can he still work for UConn in some capacity while coaching St. Joe's?
Just might be a few media in the gym come November 2018 for Jump Ball #1.
