Message: [QUOTE="Sherman20, post: 4151128, member: 6357"] I think JB fully understands that being heavy handed or hanging around a lot with his successor won’t be good for anyone. I have no doubt about that. But I expect he will be available to answer questions and bounce ideas off of, especially when it comes to all the university-related and non-basketball issues (some booster related) that a head coach must deal with—and that an outside hire might have trouble with. That said, one reason Wildhack has to tread carefully and can’t push JB out unilaterally is that he needs him for fundraising and other bigger picture athletic program-related needs. That’s what Gary Williams has been doing at Maryland since his retirement. [/QUOTE]
