My guess: he saw a 6'8" kid with handles and immediately thought this. I'm not inclined to agree with Stewart's assessment there, but with a healthy back, you never know what could have been. In fairness, JC's staff did find Tony and Maurice. On the other hand they found some others who were not nearly as good.

I've heard some bits and pieces. Went a little too far west, let's go SJ Earthquakes!

When the same old people act as if he went 5-22 or 6 - 21 it gets old. Just under 75% wins in MAC play and 70% overall. I just don't have much respect for those who trash him.

I noticed you have jumped into several convos and commented on JC and was just wondering. I have no voice and was not being critical. I was curious. I have no approval to give.

Did he ever win a game against a non-conference team that had a pulse? That first year he had team fresh from a Sweet 16 run, with all the starters back, and his team in good non-conference games looked like a bunch of back alley kids against an NBA team. OK, that's a little hyperbole, but the truth his we stunk the gym up in a several non-conference games that year. I will always believe if JG had stayed those games would have been much more competitive.

I will always believe if JG had stayed those games would have been much more competitive. Now you are just baiting him. I just asked a simple question. I know you want to have this conversation but baiting him is just gonna lead to hostilities over something that does not really matter at this late date. There are coaches you always root for when they leave and love to watch do well and others that you just do not watch. THe NCAA provides all sorts of drama. I just saw a few threads where Jerry had jumped in and taken up the mantle for JC and asked a simple question because I was curious. Saw the same thing on the IL board for JG. Though I have many friends in the Pop Band and Music school at UH I will always root for them to lose while Kelvin is the Coach. Just the opposite while Clyde and Ray McCallum were the coaches. It is better than daytime soaps as the basketball world is full of good guys like Ferry and Rhody who get fired and villans who survive. Listening to StuGotz talk yesterday made me chuckle as he described in great detail a self absorbed Northwestern being molded into a Midwest Duke under Collins. All this drama is fascinating. I found Jerry repeatedly jumping in JC threads equally as interesting and asked a simple question. I know most of the folks on boards I am on with a face to connect with their name...I do not have a face or a backstory to go with Jerry so I was interested. Not looking to stir up anything, so do not add to the fire Carl. Thanks never argue with idiots, they bring you down to their level and beat you with experience.

Or is it just possible that Harley's back kept him from showing his true potential. Saul seemed to agree with Coach Stewart's assessment when he first got here. It didn't work out but neither did any number of guys from all our previous coaches.

I will not root for any player on that team.
