We need TVD to be good this year. More than anybody else.
But he's not a good team leader and unfortunately there are some players on the team who lost respect for him after his flirting with Bama.
I'm glad he's back and hope for big things from him, but he hurt the team overall. I know the info wasn't supposed to get out but if he wanted to leverage Bama for more money he should have just negotiated more money without a threat to leave or he shouldn't have let it go public. That risk is always there and as the leader of the team, you can't afford to take that risk of losing trust. Look at what Drake Maye did at UNC. I'm sure he got more money somehow.. TVD should have found another way to get more money than to allow his leverage of a possible transfer to go public.
