Baylor lands #2 overall player.

Baylor will be probably be the dominant program of the next half decade or so. Who remembers when I got hammered for saying some years back that I’d be interested in Scott Drew?

Maybe you could compile a list of underappreciated AOTC slights & grudges to get it all in one place?

This is why the HQ award, currently in Q97's possession, is named after Tempo. I remember that he liked Drew, and Reggie Theus.

You actually remember that incorrectly. I “liked” Theus better than some of the other truly awful names that were being thrown around. The idea that I was in love with Theus is greatly exaggerated.

Everyone wanted Smart. I was far from alone there. He’d have undoubtedly been better than John Groce. The book isn’t closed on Smart just yet.

Interesting that you don't mention who the fuck the player is.  Literally all you give a fuck about is coaches.

Seems like your ultimate wet dream is to get eiffel towered by Sean Miller and Scott Drew.  With Reggie Theus standing in the corner watching and jerking off.

Pretty comical.  Probably.  Sort of, or so.

Because the coach is 90% of the program. Any program. We’ve even seen the “blue bloods” crater when they don’t have a great coach.

And Lorenzo Romar.

Another case of “he’s better than some of the other names being mentioned.” Romar recruited/produced a lot of NBA players. Far more than John Groce.

All I have to say is “Khalil Mack.” I won that debate when virtually everyone said I was crazy.

I don’t know if Lorenzo Romar would have won at a high level at Illinois, but he would have recruited well and put an entertaining product on the court. It would have almost certainly been better than post Dee Brown/Weber and Groce eras.

Specifically regarding Theus this is what I said: when they were throwing out some real reaches in terms of potential hires including I think Robert Smith among others, I said “IF (key word) we’re going to throw a complete dart just give me Theus..” And of course, as always, the HQ ran with that. Really really far.

And as far as Romar, I mentioned many times that Romar was no higher than 4th or 5th on my list (of mostly realistic candidates). But of course, the HQ ran with that one, too.

Thus, the use of "like" and not "love...."

Yeah, but the idea here that I “wanted” Theus isn’t true. I merely said at the time if we’re going to throw a dart on someone largely unproven, give me Theus. Plus, it also seemed you were using that as a dig. Which you clearly were. Which is fine. It’s been the MO for like 10 years.
