Mike Brey is showing no signs of leaving the Irish basketball organization anytime soon. Mike Brey has just signed an extension to his contract that will tack on another two years. This means that Brey will be with us at least till 2015.
Brey already has nine years under his belt along the sidelines of Notre Dame and is not planning on leaving. This is obviously good news for the program. In his nine seasons Brey has a very impressive 167-86 record and has advanced his team to the post-season every time, including 5 NCAA Tournament Births. On top of that, in the last two seasons Brey has been named the Big East Coach of the Year.
While some criticize Brey for his poor post-season performances, I am very happy that he is returning. Although his post-season record is far worse than his overall, I still believe that he is the perfect coach for the team. I am very confident that the post-season record will improve over time. And I don't think it is fair to give him all the blame for the mediocre post-seasons the Irish have had.
I predict that Brey will retire here. I am sure that Brey will bring more successful seasons to the organization. This move will be great for the long-term success of the program
