The man raised expectations by winning 152 games, two SEC championships, 5 Eastern Division championships and one NC. We got confused and thought these accomplishments were to be expected on a regular basis at a state university located in a state with relatively modest recruiting prospects in a conference that regularly produces 5 or 6 top ten teams during the season. As we council those in the investment business who naively expect to regularly beat the S&P 500, you need to manage your expectations.

They sent the AD to town and he sold the cow for a handful of magic beans.

I was at the unveiling of Dickey’s bust and checked his record. Take a look at % of SEC games he won during HC tenure. Had he not moved on to Florida, wonder how he would’ve lasted in the environment of unrealistic expectations.
