I always thought they were saying Hurdle. I was really confused how they got an H in that. I kind of feel better you’re hearing a P. Makes more sense.

That my friend is blasphemy haha
Hated Rollie Massimino because he ruined the Big 5. Hated Steve Lappas because he was so arrogant for no good reason. Couldn’t hate Jay Wright as much as I tried. He was a class act and you had to respect the greatness.

I think he bailed because of NIL. Which speaks to how "clean" (always a relative term in college sports) he ran his program.

He took some heat early on for tourney failures but he built some strong veteran led teams while the super powers trotted out their lotto pick squads with all frosh.

He realized who Villanova was. They weren’t the one and done destination. He got the next level of kids who would stay for 3-4 years and they could develop as players individually and inside his system. Brilliant move by him. Seniors win in March.

Oh shit! My bad. Phrased that horribly. I was talking about the direction in which he has ruined his life.
Hard to imagine how bad it must be because you know he has had guys try to help him.

Not watching the game. Is the box score indicative of the way this game is playing out? Looks like the Center position has 23 points and 16 boards vs Jokic in 3 Q in a tie game.

When you fuck up getting help from Mark Cuban you're in a bad place. He's gonna end up dead at some point soon. Some people can't be saved.
