He is chasing the cash like they all do after all the Bull about family etc. Spent more time arguing with refs than coaching his team. Showed in the Duke game. Veteran team blown out by freshman and didn't compete. You would think with all the great games last week his team would show up and they didn't. Good move for Rhody.

Yeah, I'm not so sure I agree with all of this, certainly not to the degree and sharpness with which it's written. Although, I do agree that he talks to the refs too much. His assistants must be tremendous in-game coaches, since in a 40 minute game, he really only coaches for about 2 to 3 minutes.
If in fact their head coach in waiting is Cox and he is their lead recruiter, then I don't expect them to miss too much.
