It's not a matter of like or dislike; it's a matter of right or wrong.
You can agree with someone you don't like.

Yes. I am aware of that.
Just a joke.

Sit tight.
Good things coming.
Patience.

Patrick Ewing had to fire his son at Georgetown because of nepotism policy. Just sayin'.

Which is extremely ironic, considering the JT Jr. and JT III drama.

Some have...
But I'm not sure calkins or Parrish, among other writer types, were in that group. You've actually impressed me in the past months, saluki. If i were you I'd definitely be saying "I told you so" more than you have.
Is that even possible, lol??!!

I was at his house for one of those songwriter/performer cookouts talking with Marc Gasol & Chelsea Chandler, and he told me this before we even hired Tubby.

"...“I am surprised and disappointed in the decision,” said Smith in a statement.
I am surprised and disappointed by Smith’s inability to do what needs to be done to succeed as the Tigers' basketball coach...."
...“He’s won everywhere he’s been,” Memphis fans reassured themselves, even though that’s only somewhat true. Smith has been to the NCAA tournament everywhere he’s been, but he hasn’t been to the Sweet 16 — the accepted standard of success at Memphis — since 2005 at Kentucky.
As the year unfolded, it became clear that Smith had no interest in promoting the program. He has assembled a recruiting class that currently ranks 58th in the country. At his end-of-season press conference, Smith said he was focusing the rest of his efforts on junior college players, which is to say, recruiting’s dregs..."
Sort of funny, because pretty sure Geoff was one of those saying "he's won everywhere he's been" in an earlier column. But he likes to do that, then turn on the dime soon thereafter.
