Message: [QUOTE="EnviroSciGuy, post: 4597997, member: 2818"] I don't think they panicked; I think they were painted into a corner by JB and had this canned release ready to go if necessary. Unfortunately, it was necessary. As some other posters have noted, some of the qualities that made JB an amazing head coach are probably contributing to this being such a challenging situation. His tenacity and drive probably make it very difficult for him to step away voluntarily. When I heard his halftime commentary yesterday, I immediately thought that that was a man who knew that he was facing his final half of basketball after 47 years of being a hc if he loses. I think he's going to need some time, but I think we'll see him step up and be an amazing leader and ambassador for both the community and SU moving forward. I'm sure the end of the road is very traumatic for him, and he needs time to heal and adjust. [/QUOTE]
