Goodness ! Sometimes you have take the adage of “..Always leave ‘em wanting more” to heart. Some of these guys start thinking that THEY are the program.. You gotta know when to tip your hat and say “Good Night !”.
And a lot of ‘em get canned after some rant about how they’re not going anywhere, plan to be back next year or I’ll be here as long as they’ll have me…..then just give it a few days and watch the fireworks. LOL!
I still laugh at Mack Brown saying as much at UNC last year. Guys think they’re irreplaceable and then they turn around and there’s a pink slip in their hand. Mack gave Janes Madison 70 last year, then feigned qitting….as in “If I can’t get better defensive play out of you, i’m outta here.” And his players ran with it to the press! Coach is quitting! LOL! By year’s end he’s like “ oh, I’m not going anywhere.” Then he gets the tap on the shoulder……”hey Coach, the AD needs a minute!” Too funny!
I actually wish he was there this year and we played them. We’d smack that team into 2030 right now. We owed Mack and UNC some beat downs for the recent losses but unfortunately he’s gone and the Coastal is over so no annual UNC game. Bugs me that we never got around on thar overrated coach.
Miami also owes a few beatings to guys with the last name Barth.
Heh ! Thing is …he/the school reduced his salary and buyout last year after a bad season. So now they are paying him less to hit the bricks. Somebody, please tell me that he didn’t see this coming ?!
