He'd have gotten a triple double but nobody could hit the shot to give him the last two ashists. Yax played in eleven games in high school.

This wont happen, b/c most ADs are idiots and just want to win the press conference, but the Woodson/Davis/Autry/Howard/etc failures should stop schools from hiring former great players. They are almost always terrible forking coaches. Shaheen Holloway is an exception but Seton Hall is a MAAC school disguised a Big East program so he'll probably get run from there too.
Scheyer is an obvious exception but Duke is essentially a subsidiary of USA Basketball, so the flow of talent into the program is basically on autopilot at this point.
Part of the problem at Syracuse and UNC-CH was letting the legendary coach have sway over the choice of successor. At Chapel Hill, Roy Williams continues to pop up and defend Hubert Davis as the best choice to run the program. Davis acquiescing to hire a GM and being a genial fellow -- unlike Matt Doherty in the early 2000s -- probably bought him another season, but that won't fix his tactical shortcomings or the fact that players rarely tend to appreciably improve under his coaching.
If he were coaching at, say, Wake Forest, he'd go 11-21.
Chapel Hill will have to bite the bullet and go outside the "family" when it moves on, because no one in its orbit is qualified to take over. If it stays in its tree, it's settling for a coach like Wes Miller, who has underwhelmed at Cincinnati, and then it really will become Indiana 2.0.
And then he turned himself about.Upon review, I think he committed two lane violations in one shot. Stepped in. Stepped out. And stepped sideways. All before the shot was released.

Princeton-Yale at 8 a.m. (PDT) Saturday for all the ivy. Yale made the round of 32 last season.
Hold on. In his third update of the past four hours -- or so it seems -- Lunardi now says Texas is out.
Joe Cravens, who became a minor legend on Reddit this week. Wish I could have stayed up to hear him describe a natural scorer as someone who "can put the brown thing in the round thing."I was watching some random mid-major game this week, I think it was a Big Sky semi final. The pbp was talking about how it was a one bid league. The color guy, some old coot, said that the best thing about being a one bid league was that they didn't have to mention Joe Lunardi. It was awesome.
This feels like one of those times they let the news guys cover sports.
Does he not know that Chris Beard has coached in a national championship game not that long ago.
