Here’s what Wojnarwoski wrote about Beilein and the NBA:
Casey and Beilein are coaches with tremendous pedigrees and professional options, and neither has fully committed himself in pursuit of the Pistons opening, league sources said.
Beilein has turned down NBA overtures in the past, and college coaches can stay only so long in process that is playing out in the public eye.
