It wasn't so much about the lottery picks he turns into lottery picks as it was him turning guys that had no future into guys with good jobs out of college, or turning assistant coaches into head coaches. He also did a lot of good things for the city of Memphis that people outside of this region will never know about or see.
His perception outside of his program has never been something that he ever really cared about. The people that he's touched know the real story, and the rest he couldn't care less about, and to be truthful, nor could I.
