RE: W&M President Rowe's Comments on Basketball at Alumni Reception

Maybe if she had been president back then instead of Graves we would all be watching W&M play in the ACC tourney this weekend instead of arguing on a CAA fan board about the unfairness of firing our former coach. A coach by the way with a .457 win percentage at W&M. A coach with a .434 conference win percentage in the CAA. ONE shared conference championship in SIXTEEN years. Zero wins against ranked teams over sixteen seasons. ZERO NIT postseason wins. ZERO NCAA tourney appearances, even with arguably the best player in school history on the roster. No other school would have allowed this to go on for sixteen years besides W&M. I am glad that Tony will get all the money that is contractually owed him because he earned it. Nothing else however, like one more year, is guaranteed to any coach. That is the nature of the coaching profession plain and simple. I am sure Tony understands that as much as anybody. If he is such a hot commodity on the open market, he should get a chance for a better job at a bigger school, where he can make more money, win, and prove doubters like me and Huge wrong. Time will tell.
Good grief! This is malicious.
