Andy Enfield Why Are You Leaving ?

If you somehow managed not to become involved in the NCAA basketball tournament known as March Madness you most likely do not know who Andy Enfield is. A couple weeks ago he was a relatively unknown basketball coach of a relatively unknown school (Florida Gulf Coast University), but now he is a very well known basketball coach of a very well known school (USC) with a six year contract making over 1 million dollars a year (about a 1000% increase from his salary of around $100,000 at FGCU). No one expected Andy Enfield's FGCU basketball team to make it very far in the tournament they were a 15 seed, an afterthought, but after the nation witnessed the upbeat high flying, alley ooping, slam dunking style of play make it to the sweet sixteen their program garnered some attention. In the span of a few short weeks Enfield's life has changed dramatically. Some people are quick to criticize the coach for leaving his players, but lets face it money talks and U$C was shouting his name. The question of "Why are you leaving Andy?" requires a simple equation to answer: money + opportunity + southern California waves= HAPPINESS. Hopefully Enfield can bring the same excitement he had at FGCU to USC. We'll see next season. Good Luck Andy.
