My buddy and I met Jared Dudley at the alumni association tailgate at the SMU game. Dudley is an assistant for the Mavs so he was local. Couldn’t have been nicer. Took photos with dozens of fans and talked to everyone who approached him. I asked him when he was going to coach BC, and he said “in four years.” Said he needs to learn more about coaching but would love to do it down the road. I asked him about Earl and he said he likes him but that he needs better recruiters on his staff. He talked about how when he was in high school how special Ed Cooley made him feel and made him want to sign when he knew almost nothing about BC. Somehow we got on the topic of Gene DeFilippo and I volunteered that he was an asshole, to which Dudley replied “you’re not wrong.”
