He compiled a 27-71 conference record, 62-134 overall, for a .316 winning percentage.[1] It should be noted that he is second to H. W. Withers, who only coached a five-game season back in 1906-07 while finishing 1-4 (.200 winning percentage).[1]<BR/><BR/>Swenson graduated in 1972 from Crystal Lake Central High School in Crystal Lake, Illinois. He is the son of basketball coach John Swenson. As a senior in college, Swenson was the team manager for Indiana Hoosiers men's basketball during their undefeated 1976 national championship season.</B>Whitneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03226312371632855194noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6048775.post-81285609521596902362009-01-29T14:17:00.000-05:002009-01-29T14:17:00.000-05:00The shittiness of the SEC is the only way a very a...The shittiness of the SEC is the only way a very average (and extremely soft) Gator team is making the tourney this year.<BR/><BR/>And RhymO, I'd have to agree with you on Dawkins now that your point is clearer.

My convoluted point was that Dickie V made it seem like sitting as an assistant coach next to Coack K is the best thing going. <BR/><BR/>Dawkins was a high profile collegiate and a point guard for many years in the NBA. If he needed 10 years as a high profile assistant to get a gig, that means the system is still racist or he's not that impressive. Think of all the turnover in the top conferences over the last 5+ years. Amaker, Dawkins' old backcourt partner, has been coaching for quite a long time, while Dawkins was showing Chris Collins the right way to make Coach K's lattes.TRhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10392896869204565247noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6048775.post-74739452644345606572009-01-29T14:11:00.000-05:002009-01-29T14:11:00.000-05:00It is pretty amazing how shitty the SEC as a whole...It is pretty amazing how shitty the SEC as a whole is this year...T.J.https://www.blogger.com/profile/17519941093549398451noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6048775.post-62584666353591158392009-01-29T14:08:00.000-05:002009-01-29T14:08:00.000-05:00That...is...awesome.

I loved the shot of him and his assistants, followed by Dick talking about how great it is for the assistants to "soak in all that knowledge," as if it was magic spooge. <BR/><BR/>Dick also mentioned how great it was that Johnny Dawkins could serve as an assistant for so long before waiting for the perfect opportunity. I would wager that Johnny Dawkins has some flaws that scare ADs, which is why he was an assistant for a decade. <BR/><BR/>Greg Paulus hopes Wojo gets a job somewhere next year so he has something to do next year other than enter David Faustino look-alike contests.TRhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10392896869204565247noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6048775.post-81103408964790645052009-01-29T13:46:00.001-05:002009-01-29T13:46:00.001-05:00i had the same reaction on the duke/maryland compa...i had the same reaction on the duke/maryland comparison. absurd.robhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09442498450575812092noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6048775.post-56267451291837433542009-01-29T13:46:00.000-05:002009-01-29T13:46:00.000-05:00Making and stapling hundreds of copies is not easy...Making and stapling hundreds of copies is not easy Zoltan.T.J.https://www.blogger.com/profile/17519941093549398451noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6048775.post-10877710559801476932009-01-29T13:45:00.001-05:002009-01-29T13:45:00.001-05:00but the two of them were duke's entire offense dur...but the two of them were duke's entire offense during the greatest comeback in the history of ever.robhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09442498450575812092noreply@blogger.com
