Don't fuck this up, Ron. Give us a break. Swing for the fences.
No news ... but why would you pay to play a game that nobody wants to see, key players have gone on record as not wanting to play, with a coach that has been told he will not return? So I would say, no CBI.
So, our "Coach" has been told he will not return?.........Just say yes and I will finally be able to sleep peacefully for the first time in weeks.
Nobody stays anywhere for decades anymore. Boeheim and K are extreme outliers. The model now is have big success someplace, cash it in somewhere else (think Pitino, Brad Stevens, Bill Self). Or fail miserably (think Bz).
Age does not matter. If a mid-fifties coach can bring us five good years before moving on, that's fine. Beats the hell out of what we've had.
There are only a handful of places to go above Wake. If someone has enough success at Wake to get those jobs, then we will be in a fine position to hire another great coach.

In fact, Dan gave me the link to this site, suggesting I should monitor to get all the latest info regarding Wake athletics.

I use to correspond with Country for several years. He posted my comments on MTOW and we emailed each other on a regular basis. He is a very good columnist and I consider a priviledge to have been able to discuss sports with him. When the WSJ changed their policy and required all who replied to be a Facebook member I told Dan that I would no longer be commenting on MTOW. In fact, Dan gave me the link to this site, suggesting I should monitor to get all the latest info regarding Wake athletics. In my dealings with Dan, I have always found him to be honest, forthright and a man of integrity. His hobby is music and many say he is a fine musician who regularly plays at one of establishments in Winston on Wednesday evenings...
"only a handful of places..."
Here I thought I had a stranglehold on hyperbole. --
Only a handful of places that somebody would reasonably make a jump. You probably aren't going to leave Wake to go to Illinois if you are successful at Wake. It would be an elite job or nothing.
Yeah, because Odom and Prosser only flirted with jobs at elite programs.
But in the end they stayed. Flirting with a job is often a contract negotiation tactic.
And Skip was a Pittsburgh guy. Now a situation like that could cause a more lateral move.
