Two-time NCAA Division I college champion coach of the Villanova Wildcats, Jerold Taylor “Jay” Wright Jr., announced his retirement one week ago, citing that he had lost his “edge” following another Final Four appearance.
“I started to feel like I didn’t have the edge that I’ve always had,“ said Wright. It ”always came natural to me. So I started evaluating. I would never have to think about anything. I started to think like, I have to get myself fired up here. We couldn’t ask the players, you’ve got to give 100 percent and I’m giving 70 percent. I just knew it was the right time.”
