Dear Steve Pikiell,
Hey. You're new here. Welcome aboard! We're really excited to have you. Usually, I write to Pat, but-you know-it's a holiday weekend, so I thought I'd give him a break.
Maybe, however, we should talk. Maybe you don't know who I am yet. I'm Dave. *waves* I like basketball.
Anyway, over the past, oh, ten years or so the basketball program has kind of crumbled under the weight of football and bad coaching choices and stuff like that. And, no pressure, but it's kind of up to you to fix them. It's not your fault this happened, but you're here now.
