Quality of life has to be a factor. He has children in the area so perhaps he and his wife want to be near them. It's probably why he took the TT job after already being part of UNLV.
Possible solution for next year

Coverdale wasn't highly-rated but he showed what he could do at IU. Need more like him and AJMoye,Guyton.
You don't have anything except short bursts of stupidity for this board. You don't know me and you can look as long as you want and you'll never see me on a TT board. You are really pitiful. Your own posts condemn you.
What's comical is that you think IU is still an elite job. We hire mid-level conference coaches who will hopefully compete at the highest levels. What's that tell you?
The issue is your first post showed a complete lack of understanding of college basketball programs (and let's bet honest. You made the post to be somewhat of an a#s). I assume the argument you were trying to make, is he won't leave, because he is from Texas and he doesn't want to leave for personal reasons . You could be correct on that, but it wasn't the argument you made.
You instead led with, "he likely doesn't think IU is a better job than the one he's got." Chris Beard knows IU is a better job/progam than TT. If he doesn't leave it will be because of personal reasons, not because TT is suddenly a better job than IU. How about this? If/when IU is looking for a new coach, I would like for them to make an offer to Chris Beard.

It tells me our A.D. and administration are awful and should be fired. All the built in advantages that Knight had are still at Indiana.
I really think Dakich is right when he says the administration is dead set on not having someone connected to Knight at IU. They might not look at Beard or Alford because of their Knight connection.
Charlie Parker was fired from USC and Tubby was fired at Memphis. You asked for coaches and made the claim nobody fired coaches after 2 years. Schools with a lot less history fire coaches after 2 years because they don’t meet expectations.
IU apparently doesn’t do what other schools do because, hey, we’re IU and we do things our way....to miserable results.
dumb. finding 13 after an exhaustive search means, in essence, no on fires their coach that early. think about that -- 13 of all the firings over the last 20 years or so. probably looking at .001% here.. plus you listed a couple guys who were promoted assistants. lol
again, you are really bad at defending your emotional statements.
well yeah, that would change everything. But if Ainge is even thinking he has a chance at the Unibrow...Brad's not leaving after this year.
as toxic as things have turned this season in Bloomington, a coach would need a messiah complex to want to jump into this mess right now.
Astounding to believe IU was better record-wise last season with erratic guard play and no Romeo. Coaches who are supposedly turning things around get better years 1-3, not worse.
not always. please wiki the top coaches in our league and the country. seriously, man, you'll see all kinds of fits and starts in their first few years.
not pumping sunshine. lol. i have no idea what Archie becomes but i do know what's happening is not that rare. even the wildly turd-like last 12 games isn't without some precedent.
Tim Buckley is the one coach that I miss from Crean's staff. Many credit him with the shooting improvement of some players over the years. Still, the technique in practice means nothing if they can't bring it into a game. The players still have to control their emotions and make shots when it matters.
