Saw it in a barstool article of all places so take it FWIW. There's no cause (right now) for UC to fire him so I don't see him stepping down to take an assistant job. If something does happen between him and UC I don't think he would be a bad assistant or addition for Mack's staff. He is a pretty good X and O guy. I just don't think he's a very good leader which makes him a poor choice for head coach. (IMO, of course)
March 19, 20215 yr I can see not bringing Gaudio back. He was nice to have on staff for the first few seasons. Coming off the disaster that was the end of the Pitino era, having another guy with head coaching experience on the bench was a good idea. Another set of eyes to monitor things. But Chris has established himself there, and can handle things on his own, I hope. Not sure on Murray. He seemed like a Mack guy, and I don't remember ever hearing anything negative about him.
March 19, 20215 yr Head coaches change staff when it's no longer working for them or the assistant. Dino is about to the end of his career. Murray will wind up somewhere because of the places he worked. Good luck to both. Moves like this are a hazard of the job.

Murray is odd. Something happened. He’s well know as a young up and comer, and being mentioned for several small D1 jobs. He’s also a Xavier holdover, that Mack has often gone out of his way to speak positively about.

Mack is probably feeling the (unwarranted) heat from a portion of the fan base, so it doesn’t surprise me in the least. There are definitely some things that concern me about the three teams he’s had so far at UofL, but I don’t know if firing these two guys solves any of it.
March 20, 20215 yr Was Murray or Mack the lead on this one? I remember being disappointed when he chose UL over UC.
