We also shoved out the door Dave odom who won 2 ACC titles and had us in good stead with Darius Songalia, Josh Howard, Craig Dawson and a recruiting class of Taron Downey, Vytas Danileus & Jamal Levy.
GDO could have easily signed the contract extension on the table after the 2000 NIT championship but he decided to gamble for more $$'s. It looked to be a sound strategy until the lass second loss in Chapel Hill and was capped off by the Butler debacle.

In fact we shoved out the door a 3 time ACC champion baseball coach back around 2000 and see where that has gotten us.
Glad we shoved him out...Skip was a huge upgrade!
Players hated Doherty. Fans hated Doherty. Alumns hated Doherty. Students hated Doherty. Adminstration hated Doherty.
Our coach has only three of those five against him: Fans/Alumns (same thing for Wake), and I guess Students.
Sarcasm?
Not one bit. Skip Prosser was a huge upgrade over Dave Odom. Higher ceiling, better representative of the school, better educator to his players.
Lower highs. Lower lows. Tough to argue for Skip on the facts.
If Wake had won that game it would have been one of the top 5 upsets of the year.
