Fluff, no ADs put real answers in pieces like this. These things are a way to build up some goodwill and let people who aren't vital donors feel like they matter.

Well what do yall want him to do? Seriously? It seems like a lot of people here have had an axe to grind with Rick ever since he took the job.

I think it's a great strategic move. Seeing the AD go "Rah rah go team go" will get a lot of people that like that stuff fired up and Hart doesn't actually have to say anything important to elicit a positive response.

I guess the rest of your post got "cut off" - I did not see your crackerjack suggestion - that I can only assume is inherently superior. :?
I wasn't the one complaining but other options...

Matters of the Hart
Hart Beats for SMU
Listen to Your Hart

There ya go - however, Sweet Hart is very cringe-worthy.

I prefer "The Hart Attack"
