    I agree. Perfect figurehead for that program. Straps dunk us featured.
    "For the great enemy of truth is very often not the lie -- deliberate, contrived, and dishonest -- but the myth -- persistent, persuasive, and unrealistic. Too often we hold fast to the clichés of our forebears. We subject all facts to a prefabricated set of interpretations. We enjoy the comfort of opinion without the discomfort of thought."

    you Iowa natives don't know anything. He betrayed a program who loved him. He had everything he needed there and he just left for the money. I don't know how you can respect a guy that did that. He'll put on a false front for suckers like you guys to like him, but deep down he's not that good of a guy.

    People leave their jobs for better-paying jobs all the time. Chances are that quite a few people on this board have done it. Why does that make him a bad guy?

    Erin Andrews interviewed some people in the very top row and it looked packed all the way to the rafters. I only saw a few empty seats in the top couple of rows in some random areas. Had to be 23,000+ easily.

    i cannot believe you are comparing the people jobs on here with a nationally recognized position. Everyone knows him, he leads a team of young people and unlike most normal jobs, they expect him to come and stay for the long haul. He makes TONS of $$$ at Memphis (couldn't possibly need more after the success he's had there) yet he completely betrays him. I'm not the only one that disrepects him, most people do except on CF i guess.
