Jesus…..
Leach has been coaching for 21 yrs; he’s won 10+ games 2x in his entire career. His avg. win/season is 7-5.
On my mama, this board is obsessed w/ 7-5 coaches. I can accept the Kiffin obsession, but Leach? Who’s currently 17-16 at MSU?
Why r u folks infatuated w/ 7-5? Exciting offense, bro.
Yup
What’s the solution?
Winning will produce a lasting amnesia…Yup

What's funny about that is that Grassy was toxic even in 2000 and 2001. Winning didn't cure a thing.
I don’t think we have one singular solution. Almost everything about the program is insufferable.Yup

I’m actually not being sarcastic. I’m serious. The easiest thing we can do is get rid of posters which we do if they’re more trouble than they’re worth - and we do it - but it would certainly be better if people would just be civil.I know your question is sarcastic, but comments like this..."Bunch of retarded ***gots in here, starting with OP"...could be cleaned up. There are plenty of college football message boards that have productive discussions.
Winning helps the most. Then the eternally miserable born haters are are all that’s left and are marginalized.I don’t think we have one singular solution. Almost everything about the program is insufferable.
Some on CIS are impressed with personalities…

We can regulate their movement and moderate their every post so that each one needs an approval but if we have to do that for an extended timeframe then they just need to go.
I guess the answer is more bans which is where we’re at now already. On 247 they ban much quicker for certain things and David Lake already put out a warning to people repeat posting the same I hate Mario vitriol in every thread. He said make your points - essentially about what the issues are - and move on.
A lot of the criticism here about Mario actually is factual and there are factual discussions taking place. Then there’s the same group that goes from thread to thread doing what Lake cautioned against.
That behavior deters readers and website traffic. It’s a good reason why Lake probably made that post.
This is 100% true in my opinion on what others do and what some have been permitted to do. It’s also true as to your behavior and it’s timely that you are saying this as before you responded I was thinking about your history and while I don’t like the Miami Cesspool “culture” stuff you used to say in part bc of the insinuations, I could not think of a time when you were actually insulting people and if you have it’s rare… and you’ve been insulted a lot. It’s probably why @IndayArtHauz has always had a soft spot for you and also probably why I don’t find you to remotely be a problem on here.Great post, and what I am about to say comes with legitimate respect for what you guys do....
...but a lot of the toxicity comes from lifers who seem to be grandfathered in. I don't claim to be an angel. I poke the bear as much as anyone, and I have paid for it. So has JaromirJagr . But I never, ever, call someone a "dumb *** mother *******" the way some of the veterans do. And I'm not saying they're always wrong. But conversations that go that direction never have a good ending, and it leads to animosity, which leads call out threads, etc.
I mean, @FrancisSawyer and I just had a disagreement and I ended up liking his last post, because neither one of us got personal. It's possible.
My understanding is that you drive people nuts because your arguments don’t end, especially on the baseball board which I don’t go on. lol
No. His punishment is to be forced to stay on here and participate in a somewhat meaningful way.did OP get his wish and got banned?
Is he on here again? Was he the score keeper at St Thomas Aquinas or something like that???Truth. Especially when Brian Piccolo has an active account.

If he can speak Italian and make a killer Bolognese Sauce....I'm F-ing in....Sorry bro, we only interview one coach at a time. There’s no room for Leach to be considered. The next HC is gonna be Cuban, he will speak Spanish, English and Portuguese.
If a .500 record bothers you, that takes Mario out of contention. As far as Leach not recruiting, he is a good coach. JJ didn't win big at Oklahoma State, and he sure as **** didn't recruit at OSU like he did here. You take a good coach, put him in a big time program, and recruits come.98% of the posts on this board right now are complaining about the admin making bad hires, but the answer is the **** pirate? Make it make sense. I agree the guy would have an exciting offense here. He can’t recruit and is usually just over .500. That’s not the kind of coach I want.
Why is it necessary to throw “POS” and “Cuban” onto the descriptions of the horrible coRching we’ve seen???
