I was going to make a rude comment about his father’s dalliances with the fairer sex but then...recalled that old saw about those living in glass houses and thought better of it.

I thought about it, too. No good would come of it, though.

I believe he quit retired because he was worried about Gard's future as Yucky's Bucky's MBB coach. It had nothing to do with his scandalous private relationship with a girl woman that lasted 5-years went on for a short time and ended as soon as it was found out amicably.

One of the reasons I love this community is the reluctance to even mention that his dad was an adulterer and left his program as a disgrace. Its great knowing we are adults and good people. Kudos to all involved.

And we wont be there at the barn to show him our magnanimous largesse. Very disappointing.

Any post with "magnanimous" in it deserves a like.

I was never a fan of those, both opposing fans and here on GH, talking sh!t about Rick Pitino after Richard was hired to coach here. Not really fair to correlate the father's sins to the son. No different with Bo Ryan and son Will.
