He moved back to America and worked as a financial advisor for a company called Merrill Lynch. In June 2019, Scott received a phone call asking if he wanted to join the coaching staff at Notre Dame. Scott had wanted to join the coaching staff six years earlier but was encouraged to go and play more basketball. His role at Notre Dame revolves around player recruitment and assisting with the day to day operations of the team.
