Walt's the one on record as saying he wants to be a coach. I think Walt will be excellent at it.

Wouldn't be surprised if we see Walt on Groce's staff at U of I.

Can't see DJ wanting to be in Athens long term.

Over his time here, I've always been very impressed with the way DJ analyzes a game in various post-game interviews.  He appears to me to have the mind of a coach, even complete with some good "coach speak" from time to time.  Walt may also make an excellent coach, but I just see DJ as a potential head coach, and my sense is that he really loves OHIO and will be a very loyal alumnus.  I really could see him coming back here after a number of years working his way up the coaching ladder.  Maybe an assistant somewhere for awhile, then a lower division head coach and then back to OHIO.  Just a hunch that something like this could happen.

It's usually been at least a few years too long.

Let's hope that trend changes, although part of retiring a number is having the former player present for the ceremony.  I for one would like to see a few other numbers in the rafters besides just DJ's.
