Nolan!
Why does Nolan Richardson remain unemployed? AD's never cease to amaze me.Nolan amassed a .711 career winning percentage in 22 major-college seasons. He's the only coach to have won junior college, National Invitation Tournament and NCAA titles. In short, he can C-0-A-C-H.
My only solace is that perhaps Richardson will remain unemployed through this season, afterwhich the University of Massachusetts will fire Steve Lappas and hire him...
Reason #214 to fire Steve Lappas: His success at Villanova wasn't his own doing. Credit goes to then-assistant coach Paul Hewitt.
