Our old friend Billy Hahn is into the Sweet 16. The Washington Post nicely recaps of his time at 20th & Olney. And by nice I mean kick in the throat painful.
The road Hahn took to this year's round of 16 was, to say the least, difficult. After spending 12 years as Gary Williams No. 1 assistant at La Salle. He had earned the chance to be a head coach again, and he believed he could revive a program that had been Philadelphia's best in the early 1990s, when Lionel Simmons was the national player of the year.
Two good recruiting classes later, Hahn thought he had the program in position to make a move. "We had four starters coming back," he said. "I thought we could be a 25-win team in the Atlantic 10. It was right where we wanted it." And then all hell broke loose.
Yeah, hell breaking loose never helps a program. We shouldn't ever play AC/DC just in case hell starts feeling frisky again.
