without knowing you, I don't see how it could hurt-

And if J-will and Dmart want to take it to the next level they need some teachers who can develop their game, they should be demanding new leadership as well

In addition how is Jesse Henderson not getting the ball against that defense yesterday

he could of been our difference maker in that game

its called pulling out everything for a win that is what is expected

Luigi?

Wasnt Henderson a decent recruit, albeit just as an athlete? Why does he only get 5 chances to touch the ball? Cant he be used every once in awhile with a little dump off pass, like Tech would do?

Tried that last year. He broke his foot.

One try and a terrrible call it was an inside handoff with him lined up outside

I am talking about using him like Texas used Metcalf

Do you actually think you can hire somebody now? Even to start the moment the season is over? That notion is so stupid it doesn't even merit discussion.

BTW, Butch Davis was hired with 2 weeks left in the season. Other than Terry Bowden or an impossibly awful retread I am not thinking of, I can't imagine any coach out there that is unemployed and capable of even interviewing by then. Oh, and even UNC waited until Bunting as guaranteed a losing record before firing him.

THE MOST IMPORTANT THING WILL BE TO HIRE THE RIGHT GUY, not the guy available right now.

It is very likely that we will have secured our losing recored in early November. I think Mike Shula is unemployed and would make for an interesting candidate for our job. Larry Coker is out there, but I would say he is potentially the definition of an awful retread.
