"Hat" as his old players know him is well respected throughout baseball as a standup man. His detractors point to the lack of national championships, but no one gets more players to the big leagues isn't that really what it's all about?
A very good friend of mine played for Gary on his first college team in 1971 at UC Irvine. He won a national championship with him too (Div II) I believe. To this day they still talk on a regular basis, how many college coaches can claim that?
