I appears Lubos is done at Valpo. Returning home to coach his national team.
Lubos will be missed. He will never be forgotten.
Go kick butt, Lubos, on the international stage.
I will always wish Lubos the best. Great Valpo player throughout his four years. Further, he started his career by referring to the Hoosier Dome as "big as Czech airport" and finished his career with the most heartfelt, rambling, disjointed and long senior day speech I have ever heard.
Looks like their university age team again, but congrats overall! Hopefully he gets a shot at coaching their senior national team someday, as he is probably one of Czechia's best basketball players of all time, similar to what Joaquim Kikas Gomes is to Angola. I saw recently that Kikas was an Ambassador at the African basketball team draw.
AJ Moye leaving to be a high school AD.
A lot of "I just can't do this (here?)" in these moves. Don't think this is good.

I don't necessarily agree. Being an assistant coach is loaded with risk and certainly not the highest pay, unless you are at a BIG. Family pressure to gain something more secure has to play in here. Being a high school AD sounds like a well paid position with little risk as well as the promise of a pension down the road.

Lubos is a friend of the family. His leaving was set in stone months in advance. Nothing to do with I can't do this.
Also 72 is correct, however I would also like to add that no one ever really stays as an assistant because an assistant role is for future growth potential. Look no further than Powell. He left what some would argue as a better position as an assistant on the staff of Zaga to be a head coach. Lots of assistants either move to being ADs further down the line or move on to bigger roles. Lubos and Moye, I would argue, are in bigger roles.
So nothing to do with "I cant do this" just "This is a really good opportunity that I cannot refuse."
Matt L to Grand Canyon! Why he would make this move is an interesting question.
Presumably to reunite with Drew? At least that's how GC is spinning it: https://gculopes.com/news/2025/5/30/mens-basketball-matt-lottich-joins-bryce_drew-grand-canyon-coaching-staff.aspx
Grand Canyon pays way above its peers, so this may be a substantial pay increase (likely more than what he made at Valpo). GCU drops large amounts of money on non-academic areas to attempt to portray itself as a "real" university....when, in reality, it is mostly a fraud.
