UNI couldn't afford to pay McDermott $400,000 with a much bigger budget than Drake. There is no way Drake could hold on to Keno. On top of that, who would have expected Keno to get an offer after only 1 year of head coaching experience?
Personally, I think Providince is taking a HUGE gamble. Keno has one year on his belt. He had success using the former coach's players who all know the system and fit into the system since Keno's coaching style is VERY similar to Dr. Tom's. Now Keno is going into an unfamiliar school with none of his own players and has to teach a new system to guys who may not fit in to the system. I don't expect great success out of Providence in the next few years.
Great decision by Keno, but risky choice for Providence.
