rumors were flying a couple months ago that Self was the Spur's choice to replace Pop after the season. (he certainly did a swell job developing and deploying Embiid in college.) Wright has been an obvious subject of speculation for years. He could stay as a beloved fixture at Villanova indefinitely. the Show would be a gamble, but athletics is all about competition, and even a disappointed run wouldn't leave him with empty pockets.
I'm not in Philly, so I guess I have not idea why people think Jay Wright would take the job.
Maybe alot of money, or a new challenge, but has he even given any thoughts on the subject. Someone who might know more than me about it, why would he even possibly do it.
He's 58, if I'm him....I stay at Villanova and let the Sixers Titanic sink without being involved. As a Sixer fan, I would love it, but for him unless he's a Sixer fan himself....why?
