You would have this at almost any passionate school in the country that is sick and tired of losing.Last I'll say about it, but don't understand how, if any of you have been on the field and played for a coach before, how you guys think that helps the players stay focused and play hard. My assumption is that you don't care if they do, and that you want them to lose to assure Dooley is gone.
That's fantastic program support.
Lulz! Dools doesn't have any recruits coming this weekend anyway...lol!
SD, Why is Hart letting him dangle in the wind like this? Shoot him and put him out of his misery. Enough already
I'm well aware of frustration. Some handle it better.
I think you're painting with too board a brush. I agree our hostility could be handled better but I'm much older and likely less inebriated than whoever painted the rock.Players see it. Players discuss it. It takes away energy and focus. You don't have to say it. If you think nothing is wrong with it, you support it, and are against what is best for the team and players.
Simply put, the team and players would be better off without that junk, but some don't care because they want to see someone humiliated. That's part of society, and its the gutter of society that roll that way.
Agreed on how things are handled. But that's the range of human emotion and reaction. It's unrealistic to think that everyone will act in a civil, enlightened manner all the time. Fan is definitely short for fanatic. Sports are polarizing and people can and will disappoint.
How so? Do like you and just watch AND SUPPORT a loser drill our respective program into the ground! That's not "handling it better" to me sparty..
OK so lets say no one paints the rock, no one bad mouths the coaches, no one boos at games, and people keep going to games like it is 1998. Guess what happens? The status quo continues. Uncivil behavior is not always a bad thing.
This is about the players cyc. Dooley is a father figure to many. Coaching situation will clear itself up. I'm against anything that makes our players lose focus or drops effort level, as well as anything intended to personally embarrass another. Jmo.
Acting like I am standing with pom poms and cheering on Dooley and giving unwavering support to him is off base. He's the coach right now. That's it.
Do you by any chance keep up with the recruiting numbers? Do you know how many we can actually sign this year and how many Vandy can sign? How many Seniors will Vandy send off this year and how many will UT? How many Juniors from UT will declare? My point is, just because you jump on Rivals every once in a while and look at our "ranking" doesn't mean you know what you are talking about.
Just out of curiosity, how many total recruits does Vandy have? UT? What about how many 4* Vandy has? UT?
Last question... Exactly what day is signing day?
