Matt, if you are out there reading this, please know you are and always will be part of the FAMILY. Please hold your head high. Today is a sad day, but now it is time to move forward. Let's evaluate the facts and make some thoughtful suggestions:
First, Baddour, you have no clue. Evidence, your statements about Phil Ford. Are ya'll drinking buddies?
Second, with the exception of Phil, who only cares about himself, listen to those in the family who HAVE a clue. The last time you hired a BB coach the advise you took from your ego was far more than that taken from the man that built and loves this program.
Third, make Dean the AD. Sorry, can't a person wish. But, honestly, let Dean assist in this hiring. Why? Refer to First, you have no clue.
Forth and last, we must hire a coach with plenty of experience, college or pro. A disciple of Dean Smith is a must, that way at least the players will play like sophs and jrs, not frosh and sophs. Afterall, Matt did coach the Smith system.
Lastly, let me say this. If Matt did do something to be fired then so be it, over, done, complete. To each former and current player that played for Matt, let me ask you this. Do you truely want to be a part of the Carolina family? I think the answer is honestly, yes. If so, don't you look past the faults of your family members? I bet not one of you have always agreed with your Mom, Dad, Brother, Sister, Cousin, Aunt, Uncle, or Grand Parent. When you didn't, did you say you wanted to leave the family? I don't think so. Well, Matt is a brother in this family. I think all of you could have given him more family guidance. Think of the many venues other than face to face. Maybe, you thought you were with your conversations with Phil, who by now everyone knows really erks me. If so please accept my apology. I am seriously disappointed in the Seniors from this years team. If any of you failed to consider ways to build, but demonstrated actions that destroy, then remember this. It will come back to find you. If your asperations include the heavily Carolina influenced NBA you, the spearhead of this will be found and marked. Remember, family does stick together.
My list of candidates Williams, Karl, Fogler. Not Bown, sanctions do matter Dickie. These players better hope MJ is not offered or takes the position. He blows pro players away, think of what he'd do to these teens. Williams might come, one because he will succeed, second, he will find out if these players want to be family.
Well, enough for now.
Still upset :frown:
