If you did that, coaches wouldn’t change their minds, but they might start doing things like purposely trying to get fired.

It’s kind of ironic how a lot of our society preaches happiness is more important then money, yet when Donovan decides that ultimately he’d be happier at Florida, the press is all over him.

What’s the difference between Donovan’s situation and a kid wanting to return to school after declaring for the draft and hiring an agent? How can what he did be allowed? The NCAA and NBA has so many sanctions on it’s players and not enough on ADs and coaches. Banning him from the NBA for 5 years is pointless! He didn’t want to coach there anyway. He should be banned from coaching for 5 years. It’s harsh, but at what point do you draw the line?
