“Disappointed,” Sterk answered Monday evening in a teleconference when asked his feelings about Bennett’s decision.
Sterk and WSU president Elson S. Floyd met with Bennett on Saturday morning after he returned from a quick trip to Virginia. At that time no job had been offered.
It was later that afternoon, but Sterk said Bennett told him then he wasn’t sure. They talked again Sunday morning, Sterk said, and at that point Bennett and wife, Laurel, had decided to stay.
At 1:45 Monday afternoon, Sterk said, he received a call from Bennett saying he was going to take the Virginia job.
“Yesterday when I spoke with him, he said they had offered a great package, brand new arena, ACC and all that, but it wasn’t necessarily the money,” Sterk said trying to explain Bennett’s decision.
But, like most connected to the program, Sterk couldn’t come up with a reason why Bennett decided to leave now.
“I think you would have to ask him that,” he said. “I don’t have an answer for that.”
