    For a fully-guaranteed $12M or so I'd agree to manage the Pirates and not regret it.

    Head coaching jobs are hard to come by.

    He's still the coach of the Cavs, he can't say otherwise without throwing the team under the bus and sounding like an a-hole.

    Quote from Byron Scott:

    "Alright, I'm going to level with you all. The most important thing now is that you remain calm. There's no reason to panic." His nose starts to grow. "Now, it is true that one of the crew members is ill, slightly ill, but the other two pilots are just fine, they're at the controls, flying the plane, free to pursue a life of religious fulfillment."

    Even if he does regret it he would not say it publicly.

    I'd be willing to bet he regrets it a little bit. It's hard to regret a lot when you're getting millions a year, but that positive is discounted by the fact that he's coaching in an absolute **** hole of a city :p

    Here's a sample of what there is to do in Cleveland...

    I agree Cleveland is not a good city to live, but with a couple million a year, I'm sure people will find brighter spots there.
    And during off season, he can live in Miami.

    on the bright side, they'll have a good draft pick next year.

    The only way Byron Scott doesn't regret it is if he didn't think another head coaching job would have come his way.

    Because this will be his last one for a long time.

    I would have waited for the LA job to open up.

    What if he knew Brian Shaw was first in line (as rumored)?
