Can't let players pick a coach...

[hoops156]

LULZ at this dude trying to link the recruiting of Glenn Sharpe to the downfall of the program. Before he got hurt a dozen times he was a phenomenal prospect who anyone in the country would have been happy to sign. And he did nothing wrong on the criminal Porter heist play.

Not trying to link anything...pretty obvious to me. Did the program not start to decline with Coker? How many hyped kids he recruited ended up doing anything? Ryan Moore, Greg Threat, Eric Moncur, Kyle Wright, Lance Leggett., Willie Williams...

He defended that WR awkward man. He made it look like his arms were wrapped around him. Still wasn't a flag, but if Butch was there I can't say he wouldn't have taken him, but I don't think he's on the field.

ryan moore ballooned at UM after his first year and then decided to get himself in trouble first or second weekend of my freshman year. the one Im also mad about is tyrone moss. Wright was undone by coaching changes. Leggett LOL. willie had all the physical gifts but was a ***** up but we knew that when we accepted his commitment (given his police record).

Didn't players want some other than JJ too? It is dangerous to let player pick, but clearly it is also dangerous to let administration pick too( Remember Butch was the only one who would take the job.)

if we had a competent admin, we wouldn't have this issue of picking terrible coaches but when constantly picking from the assistant pool/midmajor pool) ur gonna hit and miss. UF missed on the last few assistants they hired (machen hired urban not really foley). it happens. my choice for the next HC should be one that has had real success though. cant afford to miss on another hire now.

True words. Has to be a proven coach.
