Remember when Danny Manning didn't think they could just be on the court at the same time together?
 
All Y3 told us was what a fucking awful coach Danny Manning was for turning in such an awful record in Y2 with what was actually a pretty talented roster.

Leaving Manning early is an intelligence test. Those that leave for whatever reason pass.

Looks like Wake recruited a lot of smart players.

Collins hit 34% from 3 point range during his NBA rookie year. Pretty ridiculous that DM thought Dinos/Thomas was a great idea, but refused to play DT and JC together.

Dinos is a .348 career 3 point shooter in Greece.

Collins is a .351 career 3 point shooter in the NBA.

Basketball Reference has international stats now at least for a few leagues.

Rick Barnes – Tennessee
Total Compensation: $4,700,000 (#4 in the nation)
Additional Compensation: None
Notes: $245,000 in base salary, $4,455,000 in supplemental pay
Max Bonus: $3 million
Buyout if Fired Without Cause: 100% of remaining $26 million (includes 2019-20 compensation), plus $100,000 to use for lifetime health insurance
Buyout if Coach Terminates Contract: $1 million multiplied by the number of prorated years remaining on contract through April 2024
Contract Term Ends: April 30, 2024

The buyout isn't totally crazy for a P6 coach ($4 million) but unless WF is willing to double the amount they pay for the basketball coach, WF will not be offering enough to even match the amount that he currently receives and that's before even considering if he'd be interested, which he almost certainly is not as he's built a good team at Tennessee.
 
I'm just saying that Wes without his Wake connections isn't even mentioned on this board.

Ironically, it’s likely the exact opposite. Without his Wake connections he probably gets invited to walk on here (remember, Skip didn’t like the optics of having a donor’s kid as a walk on). And if walk on turned scholly recipient Wes Miller is one of our own doing what he’s doing at UNCG, then this board is salivating to hire him.

You made Strick's point.
