Shortly after he found out that he would not be coming back, he wrote my good friend Swampy a thank you note for the friendship and guidance that he received while here.
"Jack didn’t have any envy in him," Calipari said. "He was the greatest coach to ever coach here."

Yes OC, when you read the old posts, Swampy was a big supporter. The orignal link had additional info about Willie coaching the kids in Memphis and working with the ministry.

Look at those numbers explode after he left Amherst

He might have flirted with 2K points if he was at TTU the whole time.

Maybe his arms got longer when he left UMass.
