Well, the posts here about last night are pretty much correct - I just don't flip to see the negative connotation of many of them.
- Chill said and seemed very dedicated to the success of the program - that was a positive to me. Reaching out to Tim, Josh, & Chris and his receiving their positive response was great. I don't think he would be a sell-out just to get the job.
- The major point of college transfers playing in the pros was, they may not be as dedicated to strive through difficulty. - character issues are a part of any resume and pros consider it.
- Ron's point, to me, was Jim Grobe did not have a big winning percentage when hired - he did have some good people left from Jim C. and that helped him get past the 1st years (bowl team)
- Ron did say 'we' would meet with W-S people next week on The Joel. Seemed to imply that some arrangement that we manage The Joel but not expect to lose so much money, was a possibility, among others.
- I did wonder after the Denver Nugget story and how Coach B responded, that the 'FU' to the FSU fan was passed over. 9not the time or place to discuss) I recall Ron said at the time "It won't happen again". Always wondered about that, likely a very strong msg to Coach B. Again, didn't like the 'FU' comment by Coach B. but could see how someone could be driven to that out of frustration. IMHO it was mild and brief compared to a number of other coaches actions.
- Ron seemed to be almost spot on in predicting our wins, would be disappointed if untrue. I have some doubts but will accept.
So, I'll remain a bit positive on where we go from here. Having new recruits that seem to be enthusiastic is a plus. I had hoped M Jones (Raleigh) would have been there. For him to sign on after the xfers is a plus too, I think.
