An ironic blast from the past.
While surfing the net I cam accross this fan blog for Dayton, from two years ago, before they played Duquesne.
This quote jumped out at me:"Coach Ferry’s philosophy relies on good defense, not fouling, and grabbing rebounds."
And here we are two years later: No, No and Hell No!
For those interested:

Re: An ironic blast from the past.
Interesting reading. That's the first I've heard that the start of the friction between Amodio & Everhart was Everhart's refusal to hire Amodio's godson as an assistant? Is this true? Who is Amodio's godson?

My sources have told me it's true. The would-be assistant is Skip Prosser's son, former coach at Xavier. Tell me - would you hire an assistant whose first loyalty is to your boss and not you??

Re: An ironic blast from the past.
Hell, no. I was born at night, but not last night. It's easy to see that the kid woulda served as a spy. A regular at the Dukes' games---you all know him, but I won't name names---told me that often Amodio would sit next to him during the games & openly criticize Everhart, shocking behavior from an AD. So it doesn't seem that it woulda been beneath Amodio to plant a spy.

Re: An ironic blast from the past.
I along with a few others have been saying since it happened that Ron Everhart's firing was personal as much as anything else.
