I think if he lost complete faith, he wouldn't have left the option to come back.. Archie wasn't brought up in my convo...I was told things like "recognition is key" and the losses are "mentally draining,"Rhody15 wrote: ↑1 year agoSo if what you’re saying is true, him and his parents were sick of the team being so bad (wouldn’t blame em), that means they had zero faith in Archie to improve the team, which doesn’t reflect well on him and the staff.steveystuds06 wrote: ↑1 year agoIt matters to players and parents (there is a clue for you) that your team is so bad that you can have an awesome individual season and still get zero recognition. Especially someone like him that's been dealing with us being terrible for a while. I don't think an award would ever be the main reason, and I never said it was. I think there are many reasons why he's leaving and it just started to add up over time and that was the most recent negative thing that has happened to him.NYGFan_Section208 wrote: ↑1 year ago
Not making all conference shouldn't have any impact on a player leaving a crappy conference, not even last straw level, I would hope.
If it had any impact at all....you probably don't want the player anyway. I'm certain that Ish would say that had absolutely nothing to do with it (even in confidence), and I'd believe him. It just sounds silly...like, "I didn't make all conference, so I'm going to ....what? A) 'take my ball and go to a crappier conference where I will', or, 'B) a better conference where I have no chance?"
It's a sucky thing that he got no props, but I don't see it as a factor for anything...
I wouldn't have much faith in Archie right now.. Look at who he brought in this year. If I was Ish, I would say it's time to prove it to me. Get some legit talent around me and I'll consider staying.
We literally had to worry about keeping one player on this team and he was the first one to transfer. Archie's start has been horrible. I still believe in him but man he needs some home runs this offseason.
