This boils down to: 1. a search where everyone get's to express an opinion, and 2. Thorr picking the candidate, no one except cheerleaders cheering him on need apply, contrary opinions not welcome.
If you are going to do that, at least say it. Say, we are going into circle the wagons mode.
Yeah, there won't be any buzz, don't worry. You won't see much activity until Cox coaches his first game, it will be silence, with the exception of when players declare they are leaving.
If Cox stays the players aren't leaving. He recruited most of them. It's well aware that they would only leave if Cox left as well. Didn't you just say in some other hare-brained post that we shouldn't let the players dictate who stays? WHICH IS IT!?
If the crowd is silent or doesn't show up for when we raise ANOTHER NCAA banner, we don't deserve anything. That's the whole point of this whole process. Support the program you want to have from the jump, or you're not going to have a good program to support.
As for the first part...dude WHAT?!?!
This isn't a damn democracy. Everyone doesn't get an opinion here. You know who gets an opinion on these hires? The athletic director and the top 5-10 on the priority points list. The people who actually pay the bills.
I don't think you adequately grip the message board's role in all of this...
As an aside - this is the kind of shit I was talking about when the "Baron 2.0" thread came about. You think that the opinions of this board are taken even the least bit seriously by anyone with pull when there's shit like that going on? LOfreakingL
