I really appreciate the man's candor and honesty. He's not spewing mounds of crap. That's for sure. Still not sure if he has the proper sized stones in the long run, but we'll find out.

Probably at least one or more active assistant coaches. As Stallion said that you can't contact assistant coaches until after the season unless you have permission.

good communication. Addressed most everything. Other previous AD's would have left us in the dark.

Great e-mail and strong comments. He gets it and is NOT a Turner puppet..he is a professional with a good background. Let him lead us out of the wilderness. Send him emails of support.

We have posted a lot, Ok... Ok... I have, about leadership and the secret society mentality. This was hands down a great e-mail. It addressed a lot of the concerns that people have had, re-affirms our goals and gives us the next steps. As a bonus it gives us an immediate call for action, attend the games.

Kudos to Rick Hart! I'll just keep my whiney, complaining trap shut.

Good stuff. Treated the fan base with respect by being transparent and showing commitment. I think we can right this ship in the next couple of years.

The first draft ended with "PS Don't be a bunch of [deleted]. XOXOXO Rick Hart". He should have stuck with that.
