Whitman doesn't seem to have many leaks. The Lovie stuff didn't come out until right before it happened.

From your sarcasm, I'm curious what leads you to believe he won't?*

"Someone terrific" is mostly a dig at Jeff Frank for his Trumpish belief in Whitman

I'm more concerned that there is just no Bill Self type coach out there
-
Figs
February 24, 2017, 11:25:56
and what was self?
-
nerdstats
February 24, 2017, 10:18:43
self was the 'it" coach of the year. and we were the best program that needed a coach at the time
-
AceFrehley
February 24, 2017, 10:29:27
More than just that year; other BCS schools had taken a run at Self previously.*

Not really. We hired him in June.*

Lon wasn't exactly a bottom of the barrel hire either was he?

Mostly because we hadn't?

Good point. Although much like Greggg... he's almost a caricature of a non-jumper right now.
-

Yeah, he's not quite the same rising star as Self was, but similar enough resume *

And we're not coming off "losing Lon to the NBA". I'd take him.
