We should address the speculation on Tweets such as these. Is there a chance that this could be his last year, yes. Does that mean it’s a certainty, no.
Both current players and recruits have all known of this as a possibility, and been reassured that there is a firm transitional plan in the event he does retire, but he will still be very actively involved in the program, albeit not formally with the head coach title. That said, he deserves to go out when he decides he wants to. And that very well may leverage on going out on a high note or not. So regardless of peoples opinions, nobody knows for sure and won’t until after the season.
