Nice landing spot for Jake and his family. Keeps him in the game at a High Level.

This hire validates questions regarding Presutti's efficacy as an assistant coach at MU under the prior head coach.

I think it's telling that Presutti wasn't hired as an assistant coach but rather as an assistant athletic director of scouting.

It seems to be a better fit for Presutti.

How many one year assistants from a staff that was fired actually end up as assistants elsewhere?  It more speaks to his lack of experience more than anything.

Probably speaks just as much to Wojo asking his fellow Dukie Capel to hook Jake up.

Presutti was an assistant coach at MU for 2 seasons.

Presutti's lack of experience contributed to questioning his efficacy as an assistant coach at MU.

The fact of the matter is Presutti's first job after MU isn't as an assistant coach.  I believe this fact to be very telling.

If Presutti was a quality assistant coach at MU, why didn't he get hired as an assistant coach for his next job?

Instead Presutti accepted a position that is a step down from an assistant coach position.

You can certainly believe that this isn't related to Presutti's ability as an assistant coach. 

I would argue that if Presutti was a quality assistant coach he would be been hired as an assistant coach after MU. Instead Presutti was hired for a position that is a step down from an assistant coach.

I respectfully agree to disagree with your opinion on this.

Exactly. Wojo wouldn't  listen to the most experienced assistant coaches on his staff (except Stan who he had to to keep the roster together). Jake worked his way up to that spot the hard way, yet seems to incur the wrath of Scoop.

Honestly you put more thought into this than I have. I frankly don’t care all that much.

...maybe he took the job based more-so on the program
 (high D-1), conference affiliation  (ACC) and potential future opportunities that may come. A step back to take two steps forward, so to speak.

Presutti's going to Pitt.  A program that hasn't finished better than 12th place in the ACC during the past 5 seasons.

The fact remains Presutti wasn't hired as an assistant coach directly after MU.

The marketplace has spoken.

It spoke about Nelson, Stan and Killings, too.

I didn't notice this tidbit...

https://www.usm.org/about/news/post/~board/2021-22/post/jake-presutti-named-boys-varsity-basketball-head-coach

Looked like he was going to be Head Coach, run some camps and be a permanent substitute teacher.

Then Jake decommitted to go to Pitt.....

It's interesting that Presutti accepted a coaching position at the high school level after being on MU's staff for the past 7 years with the last 2 years as an assistant coach.

Best of luck to Presutti in his new role at Pitt.
