Love this bit of a slam.
Wright has been my favorite D-1 coach the past ~15-20 yrs. Just seems to be a solid, gracious, stand-up guy. Sad to see him leave, but he has had himself quite a run.Love this bit of a slam.
I'd love to compare the last 20 years between Wright and K. I'd probably give the edge to Wright without looking, but it would be great to see the stats on paper.
Perhaps I've been blind to Nova problems from an ethical standpoint but I'm assuming they aren't anything like what we've seen emanating from Durham.
Well done coach.
I concur. (Nice dig fella.) lolLove this bit of a slam.

I've assumed for a long while that Boeheim is going to fly that program right into the mountain before they pry his cold, dead fingers out of it.I concur. (Nice dig fella.) lol
I’m sure Jay ‘ll quietly walk away for good too. That seems like that’s how he rolls.
Whereas, K will find some way to come slithering back in one form or another. You just know he probably will…he can’t stay away he’s too much of a control freak.
Remember when his pal Boeheim was gonna step down…wink wink…after an 8 yr investigation turned up: academic misconduct, violation of their own drug policies, and of course $$…having to vacate 108 victories…He clearly had no damned intention of ever stepping down.
I just assumed he was hanging around long enough to see his grandkids through the program.I've assumed for a long while that Boeheim is going to fly that program right into the mountain before they pry his cold, dead fingers out of it.
What other ones are you thinking? Turgeon is the only other one that I can think that wasn't driven by performance.I wonder if NIL/transfer portal has anything to do with these recent big retirements?

There's these two guys named Mike and Roy that come to mindWhat other ones are you thinking? Turgeon is the only other one that I can think that wasn't driven by performance.
That said I expect frustration level to rise
Roy Williams was quoted as saying he realized he wasn't giving his team his best any longer, and that's why he retired. He didn't think it was fair to them or the UNC program. He realized his time was up. Had nothing to do with NIL or the portal. And Coach K is 75 years old. I think that's a pretty acceptable age to finally hang 'em up.There's these two guys named Mike and Roy that come to mind

I think it offset the academic perks that UNC offered their athletesIt is not a coincedence that Roy retired very shortly after Walker Kessler entered the portal. He did not like the new transfer rules.
Or it is a coincidence ...It is not a coincedence that Roy retired very shortly after Walker Kessler entered the portal. He did not like the new transfer rules.
