@CallMeBruce - I was literally about to make the same exact post.
I wonder if there is any smoke here. Williams is not a good coach, but NO just made the playoffs. He certainly wasn't on the hot seat. Maybe with Cal whiffing on a bunch of guys he has gotten in the past, coupled with his actual lack of success (relative to expectations) over the last few years, I would think he'd have to
consider the NO move.
I mean, think about it, Davis is the best player he's ever coached (he's a future HOFer, that's real). If Cal goes there, and Davis resigns, he gets to coach AD in his prime for the next 10 years. If you put a semi-competent roster around that, they are an annual playoff team and eventual contender, even with Cal's lack of coaching skills.
He has to consider it. There is no doubt, and he will be on NO's list if anything else to assure that Davis will re-sign and stay long term. Interesting development.
