Jay Wright will not be on the coaching staff of a college basketball team in 2022 for the first time since 1984, and Oklahoma State basketball coach Mike Boynton thinks this is not good for the game.
Wright finished his 21-year career as Villanova’s head coach with two national championship titles. Boynton spoke with Sports Illustrated’s Jason Jordan, and he said he thinks Wright, along with coaches such as Roy Williams and Mike Krzyzewski, were role models in college hoops, and now the game will be shaped without their leadership.
