[QUOTE="mattcoldagelli, post: 1305219, member: 11524"] :huh: I'm not sure how disappointed you can be when you were/are advocating a staff of Antigua-Gentry-_____ (Mennenga?) and we ended up with Antigua, got Gentry anyway, and used that staff spot you had earmarked for him to make a not-insignificant gesture toward Chicago high schools and AAU programs. Like, is your animus towards Walker really that intense? Because logically, that seems to be the only way you can compare your ideal result vs. what we ended up with and feel let down. I also think you're overestimating a bit the need for familiarity with Underwood's system. I mean, sure, having that background would be a nice-to-have, but all of these guys are adult professional basketball coaches. They can pick it up. I mean, look at FiveStar - Underwood taught him the offense (no offense, FiveStar). [/QUOTE]
