Confused. I didn't write any of these.
 
"Two years later, the players finally feel like they have the right coach to restore the winning tradition of a Demon Deacon."

What was this line based on? I didn't see any quotes consistent with that.

Fair point. I discussed this with the author and we decided to change finally to definitely.

?????

are you not considering Jordan is in the same generation (only 3 years age difference)?

Manning was a much better college player. Who knows what he would have become in the pros without 3 ACL surgeries. Obviously Jordan is the GOAT, but coming out of college Manning would have gone ahead of Jordan 9 out of 10 times, and he wasn't a Sam Bowie type project. He was the real deal. He still was a great NBA player despite losing almost all his athleticism to injuries.
 
Technically, Jordan is a Baby Boomer and Manning is Gen X despite the small age difference between them.
 
I missed the Final Four pregame shows. Was there any mention of coach Manning or was he in studio?
 
I came across this while searching youtube, and I didn't know where to post it, but it seems super important.
