I was at Utah while he was there. He will coach for a max of 5 - 7 years. His health will drive him out just like it was about to at the U (he left to take care of his mother). His last few years at Utah were less than impressive, and his start at SLU has been very slow because he doesn't have much athleticism.
I live in STL right now, and though SLU is really the only college show here, they get little to no coverage locally. Recriuting to a small Catholic school in a city that doesn't give a crap about college sports, especially A-10 sports, will be harder than it was at Utah where the Huntsman Center was consistantly filled to 16,000+ every night. Local rivalries make Salt Lake a better college sports town that you would think.
