FloWrestling has learned that Coleman Scott will not be pursuing the head coaching job at West Virginia. Scott just completed his third year at the helm of North Carolina's program. 

Scott helped eight UNC wrestlers qualify for the 2018 NCAA tournament. The Tar Heels had two All-Americans in Cleveland: Troy Heilmann placed fourth at 149 pounds and Chip Ness placed seventh at 184 pounds. Overall, North Carolina placed 20th with 27 total team points.

The West Virginia job officially went on the market when it was revealed last week that the university would not be renewing Sammie Henson's contract after four years as the head coach. 

It was speculated that Scott, a Pittsburgh area native, might be a candidate for the job, but he poured cold water on those rumors, telling FloWrestling that he is staying put in Chapel Hill, NC.

Several other current head coaches have been swirling about the rumor mill, but we have yet to confirm any official candidates.
