I predict a power school will money-whip Mark Few eventually and Gonzaga will decline.   Similar to DePaul and Georgetown.  Are their other sports any good?

He's been there since 1989. Actually, per Wikipedia he hasn't coached anywhere else in his entire college coaching career regardless of title. Why would he leave now?

Didn’t say now, but eventually an offer may be too crazy to turn down.   $$$

It might even be somewhere close like Oregon, with free Nike shoes!

He's already turned down Oregon in the past even though he went to college there but sure, I guess it's technically possible.

I'm pretty sure he has already had crazy offers thrown at him.  He's not going anywhere.

@CMJ, know of any specific examples?

Then he could be like DePaul coach Ray Meyer who coached there from 1942-1984, until he retired.  Then DePaul slowly declined until just an average program now.   Or Georgetown coach John Thompson from 1972-1999.  Likewise they declined after he left.  

This happens in other college sports as well, especially football. The ZAGGS accepted PAC offer and paired with SDSU look strong in men's hoops. Could other WCC teams follow?

Sorry, I've been on vacation so I haven't been checking the board much.  Few has turned down all sorts of places through the years.  I think the NBA even tried to pry him away at one point.
