Give Ritchie the chance to say "April Fools" I'm baaaaaack. Publicly apologize before we have a chance to criticize too much.

Serious moment: I'm thinking he's a whole different dude than six years ago. You don't spend that much time with Tony Bennett and learn nothing. You also don't spend that much time having success and getting no credit without learning some humility.

I don't have a problem with bring either one of the guys back. Like Jon said, if it is McKay, he will be smarter, have a very good network for recruiting and he obviously knows what he is getting into.

Agree to disagree. I believe you are highly overestimating the prestige of UVa nationally.

I have run out of speculation fuel. Hopefully we all wake up to some real news.

I can't believe ya'll don't know who it is yet? Hoffman was a curve ball the whole time. He wasn't leaving his best friend/President for LU. The new coach was tucked away in a hotel while Hoffman was taking the tour. Impressive JB. Impressive.

Ding ding ding. (To the first part, anyway)

The classic loyalty play. Guy assigns unique misinformation to each individual he isn't sure he can trust. Now he's able to trace the info back to the source in the event that it comes out.

6 years ago I received a letter from my wife while at basic training. In it it included 2 newspaper clippings. One stating Seth had transferred and the other stating Ritchie McKay was leaving liberty.

I was so angry And 6 years later I am fairly confident he is coming back. It's hard for me to wrap my head around that.

It will take me a while to come around completely if this is the case. He is a fantastic coach though.

Well he has been awfully quiet recently. He also said he'd been 'exiled' as well.
