All the "left my heart in Pullman" jokes aside, ACC fans who don't know his name better recognize. There's a reason he was offered the Indiana job before Crean. He's probably the Best Coach You've Never Heard Of for three out of the last five years. He will get recruits and the Cavaliers will improve as a program.

Great hire, totally under the radar with all the Kentucky talk.

Sucks to see him leave WSU. He and his Dad finally made that team relevant in the Pac 10.

I hope the Cougs are able to make another savvy hire to keep building up their program into one that is always competitive in the Pac 10.

Bennett did a great job recruiting to a place like Pullman, I hope the next guy can do the same.
