...So anyone on here trying to say the guy sucked and didn't care about his players, if he was good enough to coach Wiliam's own son, then apparently there were no hard feelings.

I googled 'William Gates basketball player' and an article from a Chicago area newspaper printed in 2011 had an article about the younger Williams boy playing at his Dad's alma mater.

Pingatore knew it takes sacrifice to be great. That includes making difficult decisions and fully committing ones self to the game. Neither Arthur nor William were mature or smart enough to realize that.
