0:00.0	And away we go, episode 275 of the Algali podcast, it is Monday, March 21st, 2022.
0:29.5	That is the first full day of spring in the year 2020 to winter. Finally, mercifully is over.
0:39.6	It is done. No more winter, at least not for a while. We have started to have wonderful
0:46.3	weather days in the Washington DC area. That is a good thing. I hope you had a wonderful
0:52.5	weekend. The NCA tournament has been wonderful. I tell you, the beauty of the NCA tournament

2:12.0	morning reported that Maryland will announce the hiring of Kevin Willard as Terpset coach on Monday
2:18.3	morning and will introduce Willard at a press conference on Tuesday. So Kevin Willard is he the
2:25.8	man who will take the Terps back to the promised land. Kevin Willard is an uninspiring hire. Okay,
2:33.1	let's just be honest about this. But the thing is I'm not sure who would have been an inspiring
2:38.6	hire in terms of people who were being considered by Maryland. The Terps did not want to dance
2:44.9	with Rick Patino. I would have welcomed that the Terps did not want to do that. Maryland clearly
