MEETING THE COACH

(ADDED NEXT MORNING JINX ALERT) Literally after posting this picture I saw that BELMONT was leading 70-69 with 1:35 left (I had TIVO'd the game and thought it was over, right after that DUKE Scored and Belmont missed its last two shots, I take the blame for posting this pic too early, rats. Good news the commentators were impressed with the coaching, and the play of the team)

I noticed that DUKE is playing BELMONT, last year when the tourney was in Winston-Salem, we got a chance to meet the Coach of Belmont RICK BYRD, I thought I would post a picture of him. He was mentioned in Sports Illustrated today as one of the 65 reasons to LOVE the NCAA tourney because Billy Donovan (the coach of consecutive champs FLORIDA) didnt make the tournery and was paid 3.5 million this year and Rick Byrd who makes 228K did.
