They started making fun of Missoula.
I'm like, what are you doing?
He's a great coach.
Like, no, Simmons said this.
I mean, Bill Simmons could not have been more wrong on Joe Missoula.
Missoula has been amazing.
Yeah.
No, look, I actually covered Missoula when he was at UConn and they were in the final four.
So we go back that far and every time I see him, he's like, final four.
But we've been friendly for a very long time.
I was actually very happy with this hire because if you know him personally, you know his character.
And he is an insane person, but in the best way.
He also was a great player, I believe, at West Virginia.
Yeah.
I remember they had some good runs.
I'm a college hoops nerd, but congrats to Joe Mazur.
Yeah, absolutely.
And I think Simmons has changed his tune on this too.
Now he loves them.
So there you go.
