How badly does Brown want to get back in the NBA?

I think the better question is: how bad does Brown want to turn SMU into Georgetown? I am probably very naive, but I think this is his last stop, be it 1 season or 10 seasons.

Doesn't seem like a Prokhorov type move.

Brown is friends w/the GM, and Jerrance Howard is best friends w/Deron Williams. He's gonna push for Brown, I'd bet

Larry Brown is always going to be mentioned for these NBA jobs. But his last two stops probably cured him of that disease. He's the consummate teacher and coach, NBA guys just don't listen as shown in those last two stops. However, if a Brinks Truck happens to be seen outside of the Crum building with a few Russian looking dudes driving, well....

I hope to God he is truly happy at SMU...

Brown has always said he wanted to be associated with a premier academic institution (Vandy, Stanford, Duke, etc) in a good conference (ACC, BIG, Big East.......). SMU surely qualifies as a premier academic institution, but now the Big East is dead... Is he still happy?

Cincinnati
SMU
Memphis
UConn
South Florida
Central Florida
Houston

IDK... again, I hope he is happy

He seems really happy here, but then again what do we really know. I'm not expecting him to leave for that job, at least not right now half-way through a season.
