Now he doesn't have to worry about coaching against his mentor Calhoon in the NBE.

yes, seems he chose to take the easy way out and settle for the ACC! HA!
Boeheim, Pitino, Calhoun, and JT3!!
Go Big East!

this isn't good for the Big East non-footballs. No real way to spin this one. Its a confirmation (as if one was needed) of the major institutional advantages that D-1 football schools have. Bad bad.

Great hire for UVA. It's about time they got some sense over there! Odom was a bad choice, too old. Laitao is young, a great recruiter and can coach. Of course this means that JT3 has to recruit against him for local talent.

I think the only coach that yerns more publicly for the NBA than Leitao is Mike Davis.

This is a great catch for both. Leiato will benefit from the new John Paul Jones Arena, which is coming along quite nicely (I almost wish I had another year down here to enjoy it!).
