Amaker's been beating or nearly beating high-major teams with *Harvard kids.* Houston on the road this year. Nearly Kansas on the road year before, UNC in the tourney year before that. Two tournament wins two years in a row as a low seed. He has more NCAA Tournament wins in the last five years than JTIII has. With Harvard kids.

He's not the sexiest guy on the market, that's a no-brainer. But he's an attainable DC area guy, did a good job at Seton Hall, has done a great job at Harvard, and would be a good guy for segueing out of the Thompson era imo.
