Rumph's reaction to Henderson's antics I think illustrate why so many of his former players are reticent to follow him to UM.
Rumph is probably one of those old school dudes who's not gonna blow sugar up your ***. He's like that math teacher you had who was no nonsense straight to the point, and didn't play any games. You didn't hate the guy, but if someone asked you who your favorite teacher was, his name wouldn't come up. But **** if you didn't know the Pythagorean theorem front to back. In fact, that was the best you ever were at Math. But when it comes time to pick "favorite teacher" the Language Arts teacher who shows movies every month and let's the kids eat in class wins every time.
These kids are looking for a friend in a coach, and Rumph ain't that guy. If given a choice, most kids would rather make 40 K a year doing something they love, than 100 K a year in a job that's just a job (in other words, they don't hate it, it's just not their passion). Logic and rationale don't apply.
Rumph is a good coach. He needs to pull Campbell and Blades tho.
Thumbs up! Most rationale I've heard on this board in a minute. Al is happening regardless. Tyson could go any way. He really does love Mike but we're STACKED WITH THIS CLASS AT ALL DB SPOTS. might be a lil too much for a kid the whole country will promise starting spots to.
From what I understand, we have at stronger leans (and likelihood to land) at safety (frierson, Russell, hall) but CB is more of a question mark outside of blades. We should have a great shot with Tyson.
Dont sleep on ivey that kid can play
I see huge things for dj. Boy has all the tools & a great head on his shoulders.
