You are probably right but I'm going to hold all comments on our coaching future until Stanford's NCAA run is finished. Stanford just won their first NCAA game in 7 years and darned if I'm not feeling happy. For at least two more days I'm going to just enjoy these senior's final run.
What he said...Â
Life's too short, and tourney opportunities too scarce, to worry about potential future problems when we've got one of those rare chances to still be rooting for men's basketball in late March. Even if Dawkins had coached us to a much better regular season record, we wouldn't be in an appreciably better position right now. He sure looked happy [or maybe profoundly relieved] in the post-game interview I saw, and I'm not going to begrudge him that. I'm still not happy that Muir seems to be basing his decision largely on scores/outcomes and not fundamentals/quality of play, but there will be plenty of time to worry [and criticize] about next season after the tourney is over.
