Message: [QUOTE="newmexicuse, post: 2149125, member: 57"] Patrick has paid his dues and earned a chance to be a HC. I think he wanted it in the NBA, but for some reason that I do not understand, he never seemed to get a real opportunity at that level. The NBA seems to still have prejudice against large black dudes in coaching and management. You would think that would be in the past. I have mixed feelings about Patrick. As a Cuse fan he was hated enemy #1. As a Knick fan, he was the man, and probably would have earned multiple titles if not for MJ. All in all, regardless of team affiliations there is no denying Patrick's work ethic, tenacity, and toughness. He deserves this opportunity, and I hope he does well, so that when we beat up on his GTown teams it will mean something. [/QUOTE]
