Lack of Patience: Were Some Coaches Simply Way Too Greedy?

Contentment is often elusive. There was more "green" in the newer contracts, but the grass isn't always greener when coaches departed their old stomping grounds for the brighter lights at other Division I schools. Just ask the following mentors for whom things don't look as bright as they previously did:

James Green, Jacksonville State (left Mississippi Valley State)
Trent Johnson, TCU and Louisiana State (Stanford)
Tod Kowalczyk, Toledo (Green Bay)
Tim O'Shea, Bryant (Ohio University)
Tom Pecora, Fordham (Hofstra)
Oliver Purnell, DePaul (Clemson)
