Willard

You really don’t understand my post.. it wasn’t complicated. It was what would have been his national perception. Not my personal opinions.

Secondly I strongly supported Willard here during and after his left. Go back and look, I told you all it was a glory run and that he needed to be appreciated.

Keep trying
Then we’re in the same page. Great.

We were in a good place with Willard
You have to let this go. We would be a in a difficult place with Willard if he were here. Fact. Money talks.

KW just barely beat a double digit seed to get to the sweet 16 with a team consisting of a McD AA, 3 juniors and one of the best seniors in college.

You think SHU could afford one of those players this past year?

Your agenda man….
 
Q. I know you mentioned you want these moments to be about the players, but for you getting to your first second weekend as a coach what's that feeling like?

KEVIN WILLARD: Yeah, I mean, it's nice. I'm not going to lie. I would much rather be coaching than being back home. I wish my first weekend would have been at Seton Hall, to be honest with you. Seton Hall was really good to me and I thought we had some chances. It's hard, to be honest with you. I know it's always been on my back and it's always been a stigma, but I knew I had confidence in myself that eventually if you keep getting to this tournament, which my teams keep getting to this tournament, that I was eventually going to knock the door down.

I wish I would have done it at Seton Hall, to be honest with you, first. It's a place I loved and still love and they were so good to me. I wish I would have been able to do it there. But I'm glad that -- this is only our second Sweet 16 in 23 years here, so I'm just as happy that it happened at Maryland.


I never trust someone that says “I’m not gonna lie” and “to be honest with you”. He says it over and over.

Buddy I said “were.” And my post had absolutely zilch to do with Sha.

Your reading comprehension man…

Not reading comprehension. Saying we were in a good place is VERY different than saying we were in a good place with Willard.

You need some brushing up on the English language

How can you root against this guy? It is probably the nicest thing anyone has ever said about SHU (lol). As SHUHoopsFAN said, it was probably the 2nd best run of basketball we ever had. We were really good. Unfortunately, it didn't work out for us in the tournament, but we probably had 3 teams that could have made the Final Four (if we had better luck). Outside of the early 90s for me, it was the most enjoyable SHU basketball i have seen. We were never overmatched by anyone, and the home games were awesome environment.
