Worst phrase of the year?

The thing is.... well... Bruce Weber can't recruit. Sherron Collins and Julian Wright are at KU. Jon Scheyer, who was coached in HS by Weber's brother, is at Duke. And those three kids are from Chicago.

Not to defend the original comment (and he wouldn't want me to), but that apology was written weeks and weeks ago, long before SI made mention of it.

I take it back, the apology was written months and months ago ... the date on it is Oct. 18. I first read it in early December, I think.

 

What a steaming pile of blue and orange.
