WORLD Cup-winning coach Jake White is understood to have quit as coach of the Brumbies.
White, 50, had two years remaining on his Brumbies contract. He led the Canberra-based franchise from the Super Rugby wilderness to the finals this season.
White was spotted in his native South Africa earlier this month at a Western Province training session at Newlands.
White boasts an impressive coaching resume. He led the Springboks to the Tri Nations trophy in 2004 and the World Cup three years later.
He was named Australian Super Rugby coach of the year last month after leading the Brumbies to the final - a match they would lose to the Chiefs by five points.
The Brumbies had not made the play-offs since 2004 and finished a lowly 13th two seasons prior.
