i have a a friend who oscar considers part of what he calls his "inner sanctum"- it's basically 6 guys oscar has known for many years and who represent different roles in protecting oscar from various maladies.
two of the men are big shot attorney's out of new york city (both attorneys for large multi-national conglomerates)
two of the men are physicians- specifically one is a plastic surgeon and the other is an internist who had previously been a vascular surgeon
one of the men is a banker (this is my friend) who lives in Basel, Switzerland
the last is a recontour of sorts, former intelligence officer, a career spent in the shadows. he may not even exist outside of oscar's imagination
anyway, the story goes that the inner sanctum fly into mhk once a month to basically outline a scorecard on oscar, letting him know what's going on in the world of oscar. apparently at february's inner sanctum meeting, oscar spoke openly about parlaying this season's success into a move- possibly to an east coast school, possibly to a school named villanova. the inner sanctum has intercepted some cables describing a scenario whereby villanova's ad, who has been more than vocal about his displeasure with jay wright's performance this season, makes a move to unseat the coach and replace him with weber.
i'm only telling you guys all of this because i want you to enjoy tonight, enjoy the moment, oscar won't be in manhattan forever and we need to enjoy what we have for as long as we have it. the inner sanctum's priority #1 is to move oscar to a bigger, higher profile role and out of mhk as quickly as possible. there are even political aspirations at play and that dog isn't going to hunt in kansas.
