They had a chance to tell him what the NCAA was asking and decided to send him in blind.

Bruce has been a lone wolf since the beginning of his coaching carrier. He knows basketball and knows how to get his players to play hard for him. However, he has always been living on the edge with his recruiting practices and his inability to realize that one is responsible for his actions. Was his stay at Tennessee productive? Yes. He recruited well and won some games some other coaches would likely have lost. However, his ability to control his actions, follow the rule of the game, and his consistent failure to realize that there is a place for honesty and integrity. A number of talented people have disregarded the importance of running a clean ship and have run that ship aground. Bruce is one of the leaders of running his ship aground.

I've been catching up on VN news this morning and saw the sad news of your dad. We send our condolences, thoughts, and prayers to you and your family. Anytime someone's dad passes, it brings back that difficult time for me. Sharing your loss and grief. As the grief passes, it is replaced by millions of memories that brings a smile.

Again, the thought that you'd entertain coming over is enough for me. Stay in and stay warm.

You are one of the best that VN has to offer. Can’t help but think that we need to thank your parents for raising you to be the person that you have become. May you have peace on this difficult day. Know that you are loved and respected here. 🙏😊

@SpringBokVol, thanks for all of your info and encouragement to get LASIK done, after you had your procedure! It was a phenomenal experience…I call it the most weird, wicked cool thing I’ve had done. To go from blind as a bat when I took my glasses off to actually being able to see things, albeit blurred, 5-7 mins later was crazy!! Dr. Smith at LASIK plus is amazing! I would recommend him over and over to anyone wanting to do it. He said I would probably need to get readers today, as my near-sighted vision would probably be blurry but far-sighted should be much better. He was wrong! Both are unreal! A little blur/haze around the periphery of my vision field, but I can actually see better up close than when I had contacts! I now wish I would have done this years ago, but thankful I finally did it now.

I just had it done yesterday. Slept for hours after. Woke up with no pain and only my eye lashes sticking together due to drops or gel. Feel great! Best and easier experience I’ve ever had.

Agreed. All I know is that Daboll got a lot of love bc Josh Allen is good. Same thing we said with Gase about Manning and Cutler and he was terrible.

McDaniel is supposedly a top notch schematic play designer. If he puts an experienced play caller and DC in I think it could work. Hell, we need to try anything out of the box to get out of the mediocrity we have been stuck in for 20 years!

Players at Buffalo love Daboll, he’s definitely a players coach. Be interesting to see what he does offense wise though. Josh Allen has a knack for making something out of nothing at times but Daboll has also found some creative ways to get that offense going. Don’t know what he will be able to do with Daniel Jones though.

We have no idea how McDaniel will work out but it’s probably worth the risk. If he can keep the defensive staff and let them do their thing while he focuses on fixing the offense, he could have some success. No idea what kind of staff he could bring though.

Kinda funny thing happened to me coming back to the hotel yesterday after skiing. I only fell once yesterday ( coming to a stop, I was leaning too far upslope and just fell 😆). Pretty proud of myself, usually have some spectacular falls.
Anyway, I am rounding the corner and it goes from rough tile to smooth concrete, of course my feet fly up and I land on my arse. Thankful that I still had my helmet on as my head hit the wall. I start laughing and then realize that there’s a group of women sitting at a nearby table. Their faces go from concern for me to concern that I am unhinged because I just kept laughing. 😂 They laughed too when I told them that I am not a good skier and that was my biggest fall of the day…

Now I have jinxed myself as I am getting ready to go ski today. 😳
