According to this http://www.uconnhooplegends.com/menslegends/StaakBob.html, Bob Staak currently lives in the Lake Norman area. I'm shocked that I haven't run into him at the Galway Hooker.
Bob Staak is a good friend of mine and regular golf partner. He lives in my neighborhood and I see Bob on a very regular basis. Was just with him for dinner Friday night. One of my favorite people. Oddly, I was a student during Staak's time at Wake so our first meeting was a little awkward a few years ago. But he is super fun, great guy, nice, funny, and would do anything he could for you. Just an absolutely wonderful guy and everyone I know loves being around him. I could line up a whole bunch of people that would say the same things about him. And you can't find anyone that doesn't like Bob. Now, I've only met Buzz once. But based on what I could tell, they have absolutely nothing in common. And I also think Staak was a good coach while at Wake. He had far less talent than buzz relative to the ACC. No question. And most of the rumors about Staak while at Wake are absolutely completely overblown. Again, I was there at the time and I actually worked at Village tavern when I was in school. I think I only saw him there a couple of times. But I know it's a fun story that he was a wallflower there and Bob knows about Those stories and just laughs. He thinks it's funny now. He's just not exactly what I would call a worry wart and he is very self-deprecating. Awesome, awesome guy. And I just felt compelled to let you guys know. And he drives a Mercedes. Ha
