This thread didn't age well for me.

In my defense, though, since this seems to have been a last minute decision, maybe I get the credit for changing his mind?

He hasn't hired a new coach yet, so there's still a possibility this thread will live on.

This thread shouldn't die. There should be pictures of crow eating.
This is what my dinner plate looks like tonight:

Obituary for George Mason Basketball

Mr. George Mason Basketball was officially pronounced dead on 3/8/21 while resting peacefully at his home in Fairfax, VA. His friends called him Mason, and, on occasion, as an inside joke, called him James Madison. He was born on 1966 and was always rather scrawny and was never expected to amount to much.

Mason managed to garner accolades during a fluke event in 2006, though. He was traveling with a group of revolutionary battle re-enactors. He portrayed a Mid-level Major in the army. While they were in Dayton, he managed to defend the city from an invading horde of Comicon attendees who had been turned into zombies that were dressed as Tarheels and Spartans. He single handedly killed them all. The next week, while his troupe was in our nation's capital, he defended our freedom against some filthy “Shockers” and rabid Huskies that were intent on rioting. Many other re-enactors to this day have credited Mason with paving the way for other Mid level Majors. He lived in obscurity ever since that 2006 event.

Mason contracted the illness that would ultimately cause his death when his supervisor, a Mr. Toc, stopped providing him with his Cuban based homeopathic vitamins (street name Coachelle or OCM) and at the same time exposed Mason to the PH11 Virus in 2011. Mason didn’t show immediate signs of illness, but within a year his health began to fade and he nearly died in 2015.

After several years of suffering, Mason realized the issue, fired Mr. Toc and hired Mr. BBB to help cure him. Many were optimistic about Mr. BBB’s abilities to cure, but, as time would tell, he turned out to be a snake oil salesman who used Mason and his benefactors to enrich himself and his friends at the expense of Mason’s health. At Mr. BBB’s direction, Mason received the DP15 vaccination in 2015 and, initially, he was thought by many to have been cured, even though some vaccine doubters had predicted the vaccine would not prove effective for long.

Mason suffered for his remaining years and was eventually diagnosed with MT (Mediocritus Terminus). It is a slowly progressing, prolonged illness, with symptoms such as being able to practice in private but being unable to perform in public, random limbs going numb after performing flawlessly for years, and even affecting the brain, preventing him from ever taking responsibility for his own actions. It results in those so infected with being unable to do anything really well. Some say it is an illness worse than death.

As with many suffering from a terminal illness, Mason had shown a brief resurgence in the weeks just before his passing. Mr. G.M. Basketball is survived by 17 fans who all expressed that they are glad that his suffering (and theirs) has been ended. There is reportedly one survivor named "Herndon" who thinks the reports of Mason's death are premature.
I am happy to provide an update/correction to my earlier reporting on this story:

The reports of Mason's death were premature. The issue was that nobody could tell the difference between his condition suffering from MT and someone that was actually dead. Additionally, the reason that Mr. BBB was nowhere to be found is that he was underground feverishly working with the good Dr. W. on their new KE21 Vaccine.

KE21 is a very promising treatment for the TM that afflicts Mason. Limited trials were performed in Tennessee with very good results. It is expected that Mason will completely recover, and even thrive. Reportedly, with his miraculous recovery, his fans are coming out of the shadows in droves to support his new recovery.

Thanks for the update Doctor. Are you confident the recovery will be a complete one resulting in future NCAA glory?
