Response from Hatch and response to it

Yeah, RJ's response is perfect IMO. If it's not clear that we're heading the wrong direction now, I don't know when it will be.
 
It's about 270 pages. Almost told, my ass.

It must be really sad to be you. Everyone else is having a good time, but you have to try to make insults.

Even Harv put his Depends on to join the fun.

By the way, the manuscript was slightly over 200 pages (formatting could change it some) and the title refers to not only the story of the two years but the reason that created the mess.

RJ, I'm really not sure what you're talking about. I have no idea how long your book is, I was just making a joke. I have heard you talk about parts of it over the last couple of years, and it sounds like an interesting read. I'm having a great time by the way, this thread is a great distraction from our dumpster-fire basketball program.
 
They think so low of me that they don't even send me a canned response. FAIL.
 
I'll read in between the lines for you:

Thank you for your message.
Fuck you people for clogging my goddamn indbox
None of us are happy with where our basketball program is right now.
I'm not blind, assholes.
This was a painful season for everyone. That said, I do have confidence in the direction we are going, realizing that this is not an overnight, or one season, turn-around process. I am heartened by the knowledge that we have been successful in recruiting six new players, all of them with great promise as student-athletes who can make all of us proud again. I look forward to the day, sooner rather than later, when we can return to a program that is competitive and done the right way, which has always been the Wake Forest athletics hallmark.
Yea we suck. Tough shit.
My thanks again for your on-going support. Your concerns are well-noted
Leave me the fuck alone now
Sincerely,
Suck it,
Nathan Hatch

Ha, this is good.
 
"Dear Mr/Ms/Mrs Complaining Fan,

Thank you for your message. None of us are happy with where our basketball program is right now. This is going to be a painful season for everyone. That said, I do have confidence in the direction we are going, realizing that this is not an overnight, or one season, turn-around process. I am heartened by the knowledge that we have been successful in recruiting three new players, all of them with great promise as student-athletes who can make all of us proud again.

Dear Dr. Hatch,

Thank you for your quick response.

My position on Coach [Redacted] is publicly known in the Wake Forest community. Until this week it directly mirrored the sentiment your note describes. I expected us to have a painful season this year and a promising one in 2012-13. Having been around basketball for over four decades, I understand the rebuilding process. However the events of this week shows we aren’t going in the right direction.

Tony Chennault and Carson Desroisers are exactly the kind of student-athletes that should have led our program back to prominence. They are fine young men who worked hard in the classroom and on the court. Their departures illustrate we are dramatically on the wrong track.

It will be discernibly more difficult to recruit over the next two to five years.

Within the greater basketball community, inaction will be seen as capitulation. (there is a part in here that cannot be published in the public-I'm not losing contacts over this)


Our stature will get much worse with the media. We will become irrelevant. There is little worse than that.

Economically this will be a disaster that will burden the university for years to come.

I’m sorry to have to be saying this. As recently as last week, I thought we were making progress. That doesn’t exist any longer.

With sadness,

RJK doxxed himself way back in early 2012.

Should be be banned?

Lol. Dude posts about where he lives, bars he frequents, the "books" he has written, his silly attempts at business startups, and even shares his name; and then gets upset when people bring "real life" to the boards. The asshole has tried his best to scam this board out of money but doesn't want anyone to call him out on his BS.
 
Dang, I love reading old threads where I have no memory of posting.

1. I still think I'm hilarious
2. Harv was *actually* hilarious
3. I was winning the "last post on a thread" game for six years!
