re: Do fans that bitch about Wade remember Dale's teams?

I know he had a couple final fours

You say that like it’s easy to do. However, Dale also had a couple of elite eights, a couple of sweet sixteen and a lot (and I mean a LOT) of enthusiasm and excitement for everygame. The Deaf Done was bc of Dale.

Having said all of that, Dale was not a good coach. He was likely dirty, although he could maintain plausible deniability bc he’s not an idiot, he couldn’t develop talent and was famous for screw ups.

All in all, I’d take the Dale years with their excitement and production over the Wade years. But it’s close.
