A season of collapses and inexplainable losses came to a fitting end with one final flameout in the Big East Tournament, marking a third straight disappointing season for a program that was just a few years ago the envy of the sport. Naturally, this has produced questions about head coach Kyle Neptune's job.
There is heavy chatter that the decision has been made and that the program will move on. That chatter also indicates an announcement could come no later than Monday. That would make sense if that is indeed the direction the administration goes, as the portal will be opening and there will be a ton of work to do with the roster regardless of who the coach is. You definitely want whoever it will be to be in place as soon as possible, even more so if it's a new coach who will have a plethora of other tasks in addition to roster management as he gets established.
It can be hard to get a read on the administration at times, and the way it generally operates means curveballs shouldn't be surprising. But I would be very surprised if they don't move on and if things don't move very quickly here over the next few days to a week.
