Ok got it. You are keeping me in line today.
Bey has so much to work on, especially one on one offense and his inside post game. I thought he was gone, but I think he will be compelled to stay and pursue a better shot at first round along with Kin.
Taters.
In all honesty, I think that we'd beat Kentucky on a neutral court close to an even split. I think their "A game" is going to be better than our "A game", but I also think that we're more consistently good at the things that mean winning basketball for our team. And the talent gap this year isn't overwhelming.
I recall that some details of Krzyzewski's contract leaked out several years ago describing a clause that allows him to keep renewing as coach and an AD position when that was done. I don't know if that term is used by Duke fans or admins, but I suspect they consider him as such.
Williams is a great example of the grass not being greener as the fans tend to think. Very few places are set up to be able to sustain greatness. Getting to that mountain top of elite status is an outlier most places and you shouldn’t drop a coach who has shown he can get there (unless he’s no longer driven like he once was). If Williams hadn’t lost his fire then my reaction is that Terp boosters fell into the delusional idot trap.

My family is huge Terps fans, and the story I remember with Gary leaving was a bit of the stars aligning. He didn't have much talent coming in and the talent he had was graduating (had a bit of a rebuilding job to do), and he was getting very frustrated with the recruiting world. So generally, it was seen that he was in a situation where he could leave at that point or go through a multi year rebuilding job, which isn't something I got the impression he wanted to do, nor did the school.
What is also interesting is some of his comments now about why he didn't recruit Kevin Durant (who played HS basketball in his back yard). I get the impression that he just had enough of what was going on, and didn't want to play the game anymore. Curious how much of the game he actually played, but generally I got the impression he was semi-clean in CBB standards.
Gary Williams Opens Up Dirty Recruiting, the NCAA and Durant
Gary Williams wishes he spoke out more about CBB's dirty recruiting tactics. He breaks down the current problems, his solutions and tells a Kevin Durant story.
my memories of Gary Williams are of a coach who did little beyond scream at his players and throw temper tantrums during the entire games. I was genuinely surprised that any recruits wanted to play for him -- he was like a Bobby Knight except without the credibility of BK's multiple championships and outstanding player graduation rate.My family is huge Terps fans, and the story I remember with Gary leaving was a bit of the stars aligning.

has he opined on whether or not he needs to go?
They did take a sudden commercial break.
Are you trying to make the case that an NIT or NCAA run prior to WW2 has any relevance to what our expectations of the CU hoops program should be in the 2020s?
