Please explain to me how this is Copeland's fault? You still pissed at him? Where's the Orsini magic? Freaking genius Orsini, who hasnt had the "genius" to even contact relevant boosters of this program from days gone by...real genius.

Please, spare me your Copeland [deleted]. You dont like the guy, fine. But he knows what everyone knows in this program and beyond...impossible to do [deleted] without major changes.

So then you MUST be the relevant booster from the past he hasn't contacted yet? Ohhhh okay it all makes sense now!

That was tought to watch. We really never looked like we wre going to do anything. It is the first game of the season where there was not even a glimmer. A TO on the first possession. Repeated trips to the Red Zone for nothing....even Morestead is missing everything... At least against ASU we came back into it and looked like we might get back on top. UTEP was end to end stuff and we were in in until the end. TCU was kind of like tonight in that it was our Offense that just could not get it done.

But when it comes down to it, Tech is the only good team we have played and we are 1 and 5. 1 and 5.


1 and 5

Last year I though twe had turned the corner and just been unlucky. But we aren't even keeping games close this year. I really like PB but I'm sorry. He needs to step down, I'd be the first to shake his hand and thank him for trying.

Nitwit? clown? Wow guess that sarcasm was just a little over your heard. Get over myself? Why don't you try making a little bit of sense first.

Look my only point was questioning how you know Orsini hasn't contacted relevant boosters. Other than the fact we haven't seen anything formal like that. If you know, great, more power to you, and that's too bad he hasn't done it.

I think I tend to make pretty straightforward statements...not a lot of abiguity. Whether you understand them or not is not my concern. After review, I really didnt' see anything unequivocal in my statements whatsoever.

And sarcasm (like many things) does not translate well over the internet.

I know several. we have gone a little too corporate, too fast. You ease into these thing with a winning team. Orsini has the subtelty of a bull in a china shop. i applauded this, until i learned he was corporate in every sense of the word. Right now, in my opinion, he's another John Hart. Do with that what you will.

Orsini's mistake was sticking with phil last year. Even at 6-6, the season was undoubtedly a disappointment. Bennet was Copeland's guy, but that doesn't mean this is Copeland's fault. Orsini easily could have justified making a move last year since Bennett was here first - A new AD should bring in his guy, not stick with the status quo when the status quo sucks.

Fantastic, now I learn something new and can take you at word because you backed it up and at least have a grasp of things relating to what you said. Appreciate it.

Now i can recognize the sarcasm. you HAVE learned something new...you have to really lay it on to get the point across. Good.
