Why do we have high hopes?
Posted: Wed Nov 28, 2007 5:46 pmI hate to start to really go doom and gloom, but why is it again that we were expecting a big name, "WOW" factor coach?
As much as anything, I'm trying to figure out if Orsini ever said anything along these lines, other than the "We're going to get the best dang coach around" line that he has to say.
The reason I ask, is because it would seem pretty bad business for him to have built all of this up without a sure thing in his pocket. I'm guessing that's why so many of us were of the opinoin that it wasn't time to panic; Orsini had put it out that this was going to be big, so we'll accept that.
My original thought (and I'm sure this was shared by many in here) was that it would be one of the Flawed Coaches who are currently out of football. But if that were the case, it just seems that we would have pulled the trigger already.
So... Did Orsini ever promise us the Moon, or are we just asking for it?
