Al Skinner was more successful than TOB as he delivered on a national stage to a higher degree...

However, he was a terrible in game coach, and I will forever remember kenny harley and his spot up 2 pointer at the buzzer when we were down 3....

For a school that prides itself on academics and intelligence, why can't we get coaches than have a greater than C+ understanding of the games they are coaching?

My memory tells me it was a layup or at least a very close shot off a dribble drive (after Ken-bone had made the 3-pointer as the timeout was called nonetheless). My memory also tells me that Mr. Belvedere was a funny show, so you never know.

Maybe it was an incontested floater bc the team was defending the 3...

I saw a rerun of Who's the boss the other day. Never realized how much Judith Light looked like a tranny... I swear i could almost pickup some 5pm shadow.

"Inability to get it done at the highest level" is such a meaningless, even stupid phrase, that I am amazed that anyone ever uses it. It was "the Pats inability to get it done at the highest level" that prevented a 2007 superbowl win. The Yankees 2004 "inability....Blah blah blah....

Every team or athlete who ever loses a single important game or match suffers from this common malady "An inability to get it done at the highest level." And, of course, that makes them LOSERS.

You could say Donahue suffers from "an inability to get it done at the highest Ivy level", but didn't he take Cornell to .....oops, you are right. He did NOT win the tournament last year. "inability" again.

I'm not. Clearly floocher has an inability to get it done at the highest level of message boardery.

What kenny harley did made no sense on any level and yes he actually did miss a layup. Mr. Belvedere was a very funny show. You have to remember it was hard to get the proper media attention/hype it deserved with Growing Pains at its zenith at the same time.
