thriller, went back and read the entire thread again, do that often. In your post #22 you covered what I was going to do with NC_Dawg's post. You covered it well.
Continue to scratch my head and wonder why some of these coaches make the money that they do. Actually the answer is simple. If the media gets on board with what is being presented, the greenbacks follow.
Simply amounts to this for me. The amount of talent that can be recruited in the Southeast, no reason for failure. So, the question comes up, what about the rest of the SEC teams? That is really easy to answer. Coaching.
At the beginning of the 2014 Season, could be wrong, but at one time I think there were 3 or 4 SEC teams in the running for the Final Four.
I read a lot of material that covers the entire country. One fact at this point stands out, to me anyway. Players want to "show" their "stuff" in the SEC.
urban meyer took a little "shine" off of the apple, but what he did was this . . . . opened eyes, not everyone's but those that want to win more than the East Side of the SEC. Not going to apologize for that statement, the head coach at the University of Georgia, says that often. Every year to be factual.
Mark Richt should step up and say that he was lost, again . . . . he was however "bailed out again". He has a serious Public Relations Group that understands how to move those that want to "retain their seats in Butts-Mehre".
Tell me again how Pruitt stepping up did not start the "football rolling" and improving our chances on the recruiting trail. Head coach has not answers, he does follow "instructions" well.
Hard to dismiss the fact that four(4) million dollars a year, along with investments don't have an effect on one's thoughts.
Public Relations Group was quick a couple of years back to mention that the head coach tried to move some of his money over to the assistants. Whether you believe me or not, have been there, done that, heard that . . . . Head coach is on a leash.
Take care of the plumbing Sir. Realize that you don't have to pass through the puddles, those that are responsible for your salary and the overall "health" of the program deserve more. I said that.
McGarity, what?
