IU AD Greenspan turns off Bennett, who declines job

IU is having troubles recruiting a replacement coach, having been turned down by their number one prospect, Tony Bennett of Washington State. Rick Greenspan, who was expected to be fired along with his basketball coach, Kelvin Sampson, is still employed by Indiana University. ESPN speculates that Indiana will move on to offer the job to an unemployed Mike Montgomery, who had coached Stanford and the Golden State Warriors.

It seems like Indiana should have shown Greenspan the door some time ago.

It's nice to see a coach choose to honor his contract obligations over a few extra bucks (OK a few millions bucks). Nice job Tony! Now if only he can maintain those pricipals and weather the Cal offer...
