Smart move by Hurley. Great college coach who understands the pitfalls of the pro spotlight. More importantly, a great role model for anyone going thru mental health issues. Far more important than basketball.

Very good piece by Carino, and he nails it. It's not all about money, unless you are Derek Huff in Step Brothers.

Life is not an auction, where the highest bid is always the right one. There are intangibles and nuances and shades of gray. This is something the college sports world desperately needs to hear.

Of course, every situation is different. Dan Hurley choosing many millions over a gazillion dollars is not the same as a teenager who comes from nothing trying to maximize an opportunity in a limited earning window. Sometimes, often, mostly, it is in fact about the money.
But not always.
