100% will coach again.

If he is out all of next season I will be shocked. At the very least a D2 or lower level college will pick him up, but I would not be surprised to see him at a D1 school.

Then why have the other two examples never worked in college pretty much since there incidents? What Rice did is by far worse.

Has there been any speculation about substance abuse? Something seems off with this guy in interviews etc. like a chipmunk on pixie stix

Who knows? Will see what happens ... you could be right and maybe he will never coach again.

The biggest tragedy of this entire thing is the number of athletes —*even high school — that I saw tweeting and commenting about Rice's behavior saying that it wasn't a big deal or wasn't so bad.

I did not say he would never coach again. I just do not see it at the college ranks for a rather significant period of time. I think he could work pro ball on some level as they might feel dealing with adults is a better option than kids that are a little more vulnerable. Either way I do not think he will be a head coach for next season. This is so bad they are trying to get rid of the AD and President for their role in not penalizing this. That does not happen even in situations where NCAA violations have been clearly violated.

Two examples is hardly enough to establish a pattern of causality. Maybe they had other options that were more compelling.

Usually when a job comes up people start throwing around names. I have never heard their names thrown around. And I cannot imagine that they could not get paid more money as a head coach at the D1 level than an assistant on a pro staff. Not many NBA Staff members make a million dollars and their job is more unstable.
